Let’s talk about imposter syndrome.

I’ve got it, and I’ve got it bad. I need to let go and be proud of what I’ve accomplished. I should be shouting it from the rooftops. But I’m not - why? 
 It’s because I always think I could be doing more. I see other people doing more. More. More. More. At what point does it become enough?

I’ve decided, enough is when I say it is. And that time is now.

I am successful
I am a business owner
I am living a dream
I am inspiring

I am exactly where I need to be right now.

And why am I suddenly able to decide the time is now?

This morning I started my day by listening to a little story. The story was about someone, who just like me - had worked hard, but didn’t truly recognize her own success. Sharing her story made me acknowledge that I too have imposter syndrome. I discount my achievements and am reluctant to celebrate my success.

Next I did a little online yoga class, and they talked about intention, about being where you need to be right now. Being grateful for every moment.

Then breakfast with my Son, a little time just listening to him chat and enjoying his smile.

And then off to work. I log in, and you know what’s next? Encouragement. Messages from my team about how lucky I am, about our amazing community, and message from a Realtor that’s joining our group - and I’m inspired. So I write. Content? Yes. Therapy? Yes. It’s all of that and more.

I love a story. Sharing a story is inspiring. And telling my story, shouting out from the rooftops about what I’ve done, it’s just me shedding my imposter syndrome, and leveling up again. Hope you enjoyed my story. And if you want to tell yours, I’d love to hear it!
