Ever had impostor syndrome? What did you do when you had?

    I punched myself and started saying how ridiculously good I was in a somewhat sarcastic tone. That the great minds of humanity were mere retards compared to me. your brain will average it somewhere in the middle. Works like a charm. Just be sure you don't come off as a jackass

    I'm always doing something which I don't know, I love this field where you can do anything with a few days of research.

    Just remind yourself, you're the one doing it and it won't seem so bad.

    All the time.
    Grab your balls and do shit, impostor syndrome goes away with experience, learning and communication.

    But only for the things you actually practice :D

    Yes. Then start working with other people and start realizing that I'm not the imposter...

    Kept working. It sounds dumb but I just kept doing more stuff in programming and it went back down to its normal levels. (Yes there is always a background noise of not being good enough but fuck that that’s just from people who want the impossible or want something for nothing)

    keep doing things, keep learning things, keep making things that serve as proof in the future that you've accomplished something.

    And most importantly have fun, you're not doing everything in life to prove anything to anyone.
