Episode 140: How Imposter Syndrome is Keeping You Stuck in Your Design Business
Imposter syndrome is a common mental block that designers wrestle with, but we need to remember that this is a recipe for inconsistent work in your business. Do you oftentimes find yourself fighting with feeling like an imposter? You are not alone in the struggle. Imposter Syndrome Will Roadblock Your Business While we’re telling ourselves we’re not good enough, we are telling ourselves that we have to settle for less. This becomes a vicious cycle of listening to that tiny little voice telling us we aren’t enough, allowing those thoughts to come through and force us to carry ourselves in the industry in a way that positions ourselves without confidence. Therefore, our colleagues don’t see our worth or value. How we see ourselves directly relates to how our peers see us. If we aren’t confident in ourselves and our work, how can we expect them to see us in a similar light. Comfort & Trust Are Everything That same concept of carrying yourself with confidence in the industry is also impacting your potential clients. If they don’t feel comfort or trust with you, they’ll hesitate to invest in you (big or small).
