11 Cures To Conquer Imposter Syndrome & Boost Self Confidence All-In-One.

~ Thread ~
The way to stop feeling like an impostor is to STOP thinking like an impostor.

Sounds redundant, but triggers are controllable!

Stop doubting your skills, because those that don't ARE HEARD.

Why you're not a fraud?
1. Break The Silence:

Shame keeps a lot of people from “fessing up”.

There are times you’ll feel stupid.

It happens to everyone from time to time & sense of belonging fosters confidence.
2. Apply Assertion:

This doesn't mean be an asshole.

Quite the opposite, its showing everyone in the room you know what you're talking about, because experience has reframed your approach.

Spread out. Observe.

Decisiveness is your greatest ally.

Work for your attention!
3. Respond To Failure Positively:

Henry Ford famously once said,

“Failure is only the opportunity to begin again more intelligently.”

Instead of beating yourself up, accept the value of loss & move on.

Remind yourself, “I’ll get ’em next time".

And you WILL.
4. Take The Proactive Approach:

If the world around is spinning out of control

PAUSE

Stay still without distractions from:
▸ People
▸ Technology
▸ Any outside influences

Think 5 moves ahead, with a 5 year plan.
5. Bridge The Gap:

Frame yourself as an equal partner both in business & in conversation.

Always be willing to walk away.
This isn't an emotional reflect, it's wise flex.

Trust your gut instinct.

They worked as child, now as an adult you have the gift of hindsight.
6. Visualize Success:

Do what professional athletes do.

Spend time beforehand picturing yourself making a successful presentation or calmly posing your question in class.

It sure beats picturing impending disaster.

Trust me

It will help with performance-related stress.
7. Be Happy with Yourself:

It's possible to be alone without loneliness

Love who you see in the mirror...

Even if you do something that will prove a loss, know that you won't ever lose trust in yourself.
8. Remain Professional:

Treat everything money related as a business transaction.

Know the numbers off by heart as this shows onlookers that you respect money simply as a means to an end (without co-dependancy).

Nobody like the look of greed.

But respect attract respect.
9. You Are The Catalyst:

Everyone has a unique quality that has the power to spark change in any situation.

Most never find it.

Paraphrasing Mandela:
Education can change the world.

Those few, start by educating themselves.
10. Meet & Be Memorable:

Time is the enemy of no one & everyone.

No prejudice or preconceptions.

The moments that matter are present, so make your brand a thing of legends before the window of opportunity closes.

Every interaction is blessing in disguise.
11. Risk Embarrassment:

High achievers learn on the job - They see it as a valuable skill to flex daily.

Don’t wait until you feel confident to start.

Courage comes from taking risks!

Change your behavior first in your mind

The allow your confidence to build.
That's all folks.
