  1. Fear, shame and anxiety of unprocessed feelings - the trifecta that ruins progress and thwarts joy in life (and work).

    I am just as prone to it as anyone. Today I took a moment to write about my journey through it.

  2. A quick reminder that itsfoss.com is the only URL for our publication. Sometimes, green is the impostor (IYKYK).

  6. Versagensangst, obwohl man gut ausgebildet ist, erfolgreich im Job und regelmäßig gutes Feedback auf die eigenen Leistungen bekommt? Viele Menschen haben im Lauf ihres Lebens mit dem Impostor-Syndrom zu kämpfen - ich auch. Darüber spreche ich in der brandneuen Folge des #VerbindungSchaffen Podcasts.

  9. Oh jeez. This is a seriously bad insider threat situation:

    Hundreds of people apparently were being treated by an impostor who used their wife's credentials to provide online therapy for Brightside Health.

  10. You know that #impostor syndrome that happens when you stray to the edge of your comfort zone?

    When your confidence crumbles and you question: can I really have anything to contribute here?

    Fortunately, as a middle-aged white English-speaking privately-educated European cishet man who is nearly 2 metres tall I don’t get that.

    It must suck though.

  11. What's the word for "amateur among amateurs"?

    Preferably in English but will also accept German (because you know they've got, I mean make up, a word for that). 😆

    Asking for a me, looking to describe self in any area in which I dabble.

  12. I think about this a lot. I’ve been making my living in #bioinformatics for almost twenty years (!) with a #PhD for ten: if I’m not “good at it” by now, I’m doing something seriously wrong. But #impostor #syndrome never stops whispering in the back of my head. Probably that’s true of most competent people in most fields.

    The problem is that while self-doubt may be necessary for competence, it’s not sufficient. So you never really know.

  13. Today in #Impostor Syndrome: I've spent much of the weekend trying to stand up a self-hosted #Bitwarden instance on a slightly old Mac (running Big Sur,) which requires a way to run Docker-compatible containers.
    I’ve been running Macs for 30+ years. I work with containers at $DAYJOB. Can’t get any of the recommended means of doing this on a Mac working.
    May need to resort to Rocky on VMWare Fusion as the host… Troubleshooting via podman or colima is a bitch.

  14. Whenever #impostor #syndrome hits, I feel like a villain in my own story. 🙎‍♀️

    Especially when I remember the that a scheduling conflict in high school led to me picking computer science and physics over biology and computer science.

    (a bioinformatics degree was what I was actually lining myself up for, *gestures at self* and look at what I've done with my life)

  15. "My Job History"

    I used to be a spry young man
    Living out of a Chevy van
    And working any job I could.
    Back then I thought that I was good
    At any task I tried to tackle.
    But money has become my shackle,
    So now I mostly work from home
    And suffer from impostor syndrome.

  16. Riddle:

    I’m father’s choice, but mother dotes
    On you. She bid you kill two goats
    And serve them up to win his blessing
    Impersonating me and dressing
    In their skins. You’ve been at my heels
    And cooking up deceptive meals
    Since birth. My due now goes to you…
    I sold it for a bowl of stew.

    Who are we?

  17. @lorddimwit Is this just another attempt to support my #impostor complex and remind me that nobody can understand #Haskell without many years studying for the CS degree?

  19. I thought about not being confident enough - as a product designer, writer, runner.... whatever role you like - and am confident enough for sharing what I thought and wrote about. Here it is.
