It's crazy when everyone believes you can do a thing except yourself. Not that I don't think I can either, I seem to be giving that crazy nasty voice in my head too much attention. Yes, the imposter syndrome is at it all the time.

Thanks for sharing. This came on time.

Hmmm, can totally relate, Aisha. It gets better though (I think).

With the application of the "formular", over time the results speak for themselves, and hopefully they'll be loud enough to drown out the voice of the other syndrome.

I'm pleased you found meaning in the piece, and I pray with time, these lessons will bring you peace.

Rooting for you, my friend.

Keep Breathing!

Yes Yes Yes!! It truly is time! Acting won't stop you from Growing... But NOT acting could hinder your growth.

Doesn't matter how small the step is, Chioma. Try. Just start.

And while at it, please don't forget to share this with someone who you believe needs to start, as well.

Keep Breathing!

So good!

Starting is to me even a better way to test capacity that’s been built, identify knowledge gaps and then build on existing training.

Practice (Doing) makes perfect.

Love it!

You read articles like this and you think it’s just another motivational piece, until you decide to practice what it says and you’re shocked by how much truth is contained within those words. This has been my experience. Thanks for sharing this. Definitely “doing” more this year.
