Defeat Impostor Syndrome with Simple Mindfulness Edits
Feb 21, 2024Send me a note!
When we believe we don't have what it takes or that we can't do something, it creates doubt and fear and those emotions always drive us to show up small and without confidence. Those types of actions create results that allow impostor syndrome to thrive. When we believe we can't do it, we don't show up as our best and we don’t do our best. As a result, we create all sorts of evidence to support our impostor syndrome thinking. We create a self- fulfilling prophecy.

SUMMARY: When you start your legal career, you enter a period in your life when the metrics aren’t clear and feedback is few and far between. It is often difficult to know if you are doing a good job; however, it is rarely difficult to know if you aren’t doing a good job–that type of feedback is readily provided.

SUMMARY: Drama. We all love it (hello, reality tv!). I suppose this speaks to our human tendency toward the negative but there is something about having a good dramatic ranting and raving session with your girlfriends about the terrible thing that happened to you or someone else. It’s cathartic!
