Dealing with imposter syndrome--aka the feeling that you haven’t earned your success, you simply got lucky, and you’re a fraud or “imposter” around people who actually earned it and know what they’re doing.--can be one of the hardest parts of being an activist. ⠀
⠀
If you ever have a moment in your work where you are doubting yourself, try removing the prefix to the negative word you are mentally identifying with: ⠀
⠀
Instead of telling yourself you are undeserving, KNOW that you are DESERVING and earned your place in the room you're in. ⠀
⠀
Instead of telling yourself you are incompetent, KNOW you are more than COMPETENT and more than enough. ⠀
⠀
The way we speak to ourselves is powerful. Choose to speak to yourself with love and respect❤️⠀
