Have you ever found yourself believing that someone is incredibly successful? You visit their website and are wowed, but also feel… intimidated? Out of their league? Just not good enough? That’s imposter syndrome.
Small business owners often think they’re going to fail, or that they can’t even do it to begin with. So many people underestimate what they can’t do that they don’t focus on what they can do.
As an entrepreneur for over 30+ years, I know those limiting beliefs. I’ve seen them and I’ve helped people break through them.
In this episode of “The Stern Truth”, I reflect on a client who revealed her apprehension about her online presence. Her imposter syndrome told her it wasn’t polished enough, that she wasn’t ready to put it out to the word. Eventually, she came to realize it didn’t need to be right from the start. Just start.
This episode challenges our own perceptions of our abilities, reinforces that pace is personal, and really underlines that we should ENJOY the entrepreneurial journey.
After all, the first two letters of imposter are I-M. So tell yourself “I am”.
“I am ready.”
“I am capable.”
“I am moving forward.”
