Kristin Wong of TheWildWong.com was laid off in 2013. She took on some freelancing gigs to earn extra cash while she searched for a new, full-time job and over time, her freelancing gigs increased. She started writing for sites that she loved reading and produced videos for new clients. Her side gigs began to bring in more income than any potential full-time jobs. She launched a blog all about frugal living and created The Wild Wong to share more about her career, her finances, and all the adventures in between.

the end of that episode. For now, let's get right to today's post and sought optimizing your life
if you're experiencing impartial centre,
this is for you by Chris and why
We have the wild long dark com, its back that creepy
insidious feeling now you're out of your league that nasty destructive voice telling you
you're not done enough, they are only here because you got lucky that you're an idiot
and sooner or later, everyone will find out that you're an idiot. You know this is a thing you know about the study,
You know about all those other workers who feel the exact same way. You do right now you get it imposed.
Syndrome is real and is ruthless, but you're thinking, maybe
This isn't imposture syndrome. Maybe I just actually sock here's the thing, though, for this,
of doing your job and exerting confidence. It doesn't matter that you think you suck you may nothing
There are good enough, but someone else obviously does.
Employers or client, or whoever has put you in this place in which you feel you don't belong, believes that you're not just good enough you're perfect for the job. You don't have to agree
the believe that right now for works,
all that matters is someone else does, but also he should know
Yes, you are good enough. Confidence is important, but for self esteem sake
deserved a fuel worthy
the silver lining here too, the mere fact that experience
this means you're doing something right measure. If you always welcome
confident that your causally kicking chains
you wouldn't be growing doing anything outside of your comfort zone or pushing yourself at all, don't feel like it sticker doing the same.
Stuff or do you want to feel a little uncertain while you explore your potential pinned pick the second one
oh and don't worry soon enough. You'll feel totally confident anyway.
There will come a time when you no longer feel like an impostor in this role. In the meantime, take your lack of car.
Finance as a sign that you're successfully pushing your own boundaries and that's what awesome adventurous people do stop
for evidence to support your imposture theory you're. Looking back
the things you ve done in the past in cringing, aren't you see that terrible shore fill my meaning
proves how much I suck you might be say, or maybe
mistake? He made a work, or maybe it's in
another thing that makes you feel like an idiot here, if you, like those mistakes, define you it's impossible that I can be a success because I failed so obviously.
Failure to tell you, though, a few fails, don't make you a failure,
It is your nose incredibly dumb. Tweet boy did
mess up badly
Three years later there, the topped rank Pizza brand, which has over a billion dollars and sales. Ok, may
a great idea to compare saltpeter. Maybe it's better take advice from my Angelo. He said I learned
Levin books, but each time I think
they're gonna find out now
the game on everybody and are going to find me out yet this deadly a better example, a pizza. The point,
Everyone feels the way you do right now and failing a few
I doesn't mean your failure and it
it doesn't mean you're an impostor. He worked hard.
Know what you're doing where human
all doubt ourselves from time to time and that's: ok, it's ok! If
out of your league, sometimes the important thing:
not allow that self doubt in the way of exploring the massive dab severe potential. Finally, if
Who else fails in that little voice, more shut up and start to drown out your own beautiful voice? Here's a comeback, fine
I am an impostor, but I'm going to try to kick so anyway, but action take over
soon enough. You realize you're the real deal you can handle this and, most importantly, you do belong
yeah
