It’s great that impostor syndrome is now widely discussed, but to really address it, I think it’s necessary to see it as a byproduct of compulsory schooling, especially with the overemphasis on high-stakes testing. If Albert Einstein and other great minds have anything to teach us, it’s that life is way broader than the sport of getting good grades…

Gustavo,
If I didn’t know better, I would think my husband was behind this article! His philosophy in life is often summed up by your words. He is a firestarter. Questioning the rules that everyone seems to accept. Its not out of malice or ill intent, he has seen people blindly follow rules his whole life and he’s over it.

I agree with this. I was raised with the notion that every step I took could result in an irreversible and devastating catastrophe. Luckily, I noticed at an early age that, while I made plenty of mistakes, none of them resulted in catastrophe. If anything, I learned valuable lessons that ultimately prepared me for many opportunities.
Here are the changes I made —

Excellent piece. I’ve recently learned how to chill the f**k out! When I feel overwhelm set in, I immediately shut the computer down and go outside or plug in some zen meditation music. I know myself well enough that if I keep pushing, nothing good comes from that. We are too hard on ourselves and forget to love and honour ourselves first before the almighty dollar and work. Thanx for this Tim :)

People that know me, know I’ve been working on books for the past few years. The thing is, few have read what I’ve written. It seems like I’ve been putting my work out to the world without consumption. The weird part is, some vital online people remind me I’m always…

Emily,
It’s true. The right mindset changes everything — even with bad circumstances or poor assets. These do not stop people with a strong mindset. My mom always taught me “you can do anything you put your mind to do.” Usually, she was referring to a hard math assignment or a difficult term paper, but the lesson remains…

Humility is a hidden component to business success!
Thank you for the reminder. We do need to celebrate small achievements otherwise we will feel like unachievers until we teach the big goals. I often reflect back on my life and remember the snippets of mini goals that felt good at the time but were overlooked soon after. I have high expectations of myself and have this idea of receiving 100’s of…

Poverty is not kind to anyone, but it’s refreshing to see that you are not letting it keep you down. You’re doing the hard work and not quitting! That is what is takes to succeed. ~ Johanna
I never really thought of innovation hangovers in this way before. But I especially resonated with not having the post-survey at the end. As a nurse, I’ve been ‘forced’ to do hundreds of post-meetings, CEU credit, and teacher/facilitator reviews. Usually, I fit into 1 of 2 categories. Super excited about it, and…
