Understanding Imposter Syndrome
Imposter syndrome is characterized by an internalized fear of not being deserving of one’s position or accomplishments. It often leads individuals to overestimate the capabilities of others while underestimating their own worth, resulting in unnecessary self-doubt. Many experience this phenomenon to varying degrees, which can manifest as anxiety and reluctance to take risks or seize opportunities. Recognizing its prevalence can help individuals understand they are not alone in these feelings and can initiate a path toward overcoming them.
