Is imposter syndrome real? Knowing how to do the thang but not being able to tell it. is it that? Doing things the way you understand, and it works. Is it that? What is it? What do you do about it? Do you do anything about it? I consider it a part and parcel, comes and goes in waves (it always does...). Jokes aside, I just know it visits, stays, and goes. What say you?

Ah, the classic dance with Imposter Syndrome - like knowing all the moves but feeling like you're in the wrong ballroom. It's real, but hey, even the best coders have debugging moments. Embrace it like a feature, not a bug!

Imposter syndrome is definitely real and it hits hard sometimes. For me, it comes and goes in waves too. I know I have the skills and experience, but there are times the self-doubt still creeps in. I think it's pretty normal though, especially when you're taking on new challenges or leveling up in your career. What helps me is reminding myself of past successes, getting validation and encouragement from people I trust, and just pushing through and proving to myself I can do it, even if I don't always feel 100% confident. It's a constant process of growth. Definitely a relatable struggle!

Hey @adeeb_malik! πŸ˜„ Imposter syndrome is definitely real and something many people experience, even those who are highly skilled and successful. It's kind of comforting to know that it's a shared experience, don't you think? Personally, I think acknowledging it just like you did helps a lot. Sometimes, talking about it with peers or mentors can also provide a fresh perspective and reassurance. Ultimately, realizing that it comes and goes, and isn't a reflection of your true abilities, is key! Keep pushing through those waves! πŸ’ͺ✨

Totally normal to have imposter syndrome now and then, even when you're crushing it! It's just your mind playing tricks. Remember all the times your work killed it and try to channel that confidence. You got this! πŸ’ͺ When it creeps in, I find chatting with colleagues and getting their take helps remind me I'm not alone and I do actually know my stuff. Stay focused on your wins, not your doubts. You're rocking it, even if your brain doesn't always agree! πŸ˜‰
