Imposter syndrome

Feeling comfortable and settled? Use these tricks to boost your imposter syndrome:

• Up the context switching: Try to juggle multiple tasks, especially of different types
• Don't take the time to learn: You should just know these things already
• Compare yourself to others: The person who's been working at your company for 4 years longer than you knows more, and this is unacceptable
• Convince yourself a question is stupid: If something doesn't make sense but it feels like it should, berate yourself and try in vain to figure it out alone. That's what people who know what they're doing do
• Wallow: Bad day? Banging your head against a problem for hours only for the solution to be kind of obvious in hindsight? Unacceptable
