🔥 What Impostor Syndrome Is And How It Blocks Freely Expressing Pleasure
Catherine Lamb was a recruitment consultant for the advertising industry and found people doing really fantastic work in advertising and noticed that some of them they would have this terrific new job and then feel very frightened and anxious, wondering “am I good enough? can I do it? I fear being found out” and so that prompted her to research what is this feeling, this phenomenon called “impostor syndrome.”
So there's a conflict between who we are and who we feel we need to pretend to be in order to get success and we set this standard for ourselves it's impossibly high.
Impostor Syndrome orchestrates this feeling of unworthiness, of not being good enough lead to shame which is a horrible feeling and so therefore we put all this complexity of behaviors around it in order to avoid it, we go to a lot of lengths and do a lot of things to avoid that feeling of shame and that is why we want to pretend to be more successful than we are, and it's this pretending that makes us feel like a fraud.
So the problem inside is this self identity shift that happens during transitions. Can be at a new job, new relationship or new stage on a relationship.
🔥 Why We Fall Into Self-Sabotage And What To Do About It
An example of self-sabotage is that you have exams and you don't study. You know you should, you want to do well but you don't well. Therefore when the exam result comes through and it's not very good you can say to yourself “ah but that's because I didn't study hard, if I had maybe I would have done better” so therefore you've avoided that failure by self-sabotaging so there's something around that that goes on around impostor syndrome.
To get rid of self sabotage you can devise ways to stay present such as keeping a piece of paper in your pocket to write down factual observations about your doings.
🔥 The ABC Method To Deal With Impostor Syndrome
In the ABC method, you 1) acknowledge it, then 2) breathe and then you, 3) challenge it. The acknowledgement is quite important because in some ways Impostor syndrome is there to protect us because it stops us from feeling shame and feeling unworthy and so that's why we have this these elaborate behaviors to stop that feeling. So with the ABC you can become aware of it and coming back the curiosity in your beginners mind that will allow for development.
