Impostor Syndrome
Today, some people suffer from impostor syndrome as a result of living in a high-achievement culture and society. Impostor syndrome is a psychological phenomenon where individuals doubt their abilities, accomplishments, and competence. They don't give credit to the success they have acquired but rather fear it to be acquired because of external factors rather than their talent. It can often occur in various situations when individuals transition to a new place or role or because of societal expectations or pressures that amplify the need to prove themselves. That is why it is essential to live without the need to satisfy societal pressures and celebrate our little wins, however small they can be, without the need to please everyone and constantly compare our lives and successes with others. https://yourmentalhealthpal.com/unmasking-five-types-of-imposter-syndrome/

i totally hear you on the whole impostor syndrome thing, it's such a tough one, especially in today's high-achievement culture. it's so easy to fall intro that trap of doubting ourselves and thinking our success is just luck or some external factor, when in reality, it's all our own hard work and talent shining through!✨
it's soooo important to remember to celebrate even the smallest wins, they all count, and we deserve to feel proud of them💪so yeas, let's all take a step back, embrace our own unique journey, and not let societal pressures cloud how we see ourselves
