It is interesting and has been very intersting.
I was listenign to Imposter Solution by Cassandra Dunn. She exxplains what is Imposter Syndrome and that it was coined in 1978. It is a term that a lot of people feel. There are many layers to the syndrome. Not caused just from "not feelign good enough", there are several aspects to it. Chapter 2 talks about what and how the syndrome is caused. It all boils down to self-doubt and questioning our abilities.
I asked myself when is it or where is it I dont' feel this?
For me it is in cooking, in my life and the inner works of the mind.
I dont' feel like an imposter when presenting, or talking to strangers, or when it comes to tidyign up my place, or be it organising my day, planning travels.
Why? I looked at why I dont' feel insecure in these areas. The answer was simple. I love these adventures, it gives a sense of purpose, joy, excitement. I dont' doubt my cooking, cleaning, or speaking abilities. They are and have become natural coz I have practised it so many timmes that it has become second nature.
It seemed so clear and when I sat down to write it it is less than a page. That's ok too.
