When Humility becomes Imposter syndrome
You know yourself but do not love you?
Knowing yourself but not loving yourself can be a contradictory (but common) situation, when this happens the quality of humility can shift into Imposter syndrome.
Humility is the quality of not being proud because you are aware of your bad qualities — Cambridge Dictionary
You probably know how it feels, you feel like a fraud, like you were acting a part in which you are totally not qualified.
In reality is likely you are a very capable and qualified human who is very ambitious but at the same time insecure about your achievements.
Imposter syndrome is a behavioral health phenomenon described as self-doubt of intellect, skills, or accomplishments among high-achieving individuals — National Center of Biotechnology Information (NCBI)
In the description of the Imposter syndrome of the NCBI, you can see that self-doubt is a key part of the definition.
When you love yourself and are aware of who you are, you can work on the characteristics of this Imposter syndrome to mitigate it or, in the best-case scenario, eliminate it.
