Imposter Syndrome !!!

Sometimes we feel like an imposter to the outside world. Not because what we are fake but because we feel people won't believe we are who we say we are. Feeling like an imposter is connected to our insecurities. When you struggle with what doesn't make you good enough you are left feeling insecure. Insecurities are strong beliefs that control our self-worth and self-esteem. So when we doubt that we are or what we dream of becoming. I believe everyone feels like an imposter at some point in life Mostly because I believe we are all trying to prove ourselves to some degree. ( Even myself). It's society's expectation of perfection that creates our need to prove ourselves to others. And there are healthy and unhealthy ideas with that. We can try so hard not to be an imposter that we actually become one. I mean connection is our first human desire. So we thrive for validation in hopes of acceptance and connection. So the fear of being fake or an imposter is driven by our need of acceptance. The only thing that really hold us back from our true selves is fear. Fear has so much impact on our daily thoughts, habits, and actions. If we are not careful fear will trap us in the unknown forever. Once we cast out all fear we can be who we are without the doubt that others won't believe us. if you are struggling with doubt, I want you to know that you are who you think and say you are. Don't allow fear to make you feel like an imposter!! P.S. You are the REAL thing, start acting like it. ~ QueenPoetLove
