I deal with Imposter Syndrome almost on a daily basis.

With everything I do, I second guess myself, I ask myself if I am good enough to do it or not.

I remind myself of these 3 things to better deal with it

1. Nobody has it "figured" out.

So when everyone's an imposter, no one's an imposter.

I think @naval said this first, and it struck a chord.

There are no "adults"
Everyone is making it up as they go along.

Figure it out yourself and do it. https://twitter.com/ayushtweetshere/status/1350086589507112963

2. If I am capable of some good work, it is my duty to do that good work.

I don't have the privilege to second guess myself, so stop getting confused and get to work.

From the Bhagvad Gita - Concept of "Dharma".

Karma is what you did.

Dharma is what you're "supposed to do"

3. It doesn't really matter in the end

The worst that can happen is I'll fail, maybe some random strangers on the internet will laugh at me, but that's ok.

Anything that doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger.

So do it and find out.
