It's so hard not to fall into imposter syndrome. I've felt it many times, and the thing is… every time I've come out the other side having done well. Maybe not perfect, but I learned something, I grew, or I at least gained some experience. Still, it's never easy. Like you said, it makes sense that we feel that discomfort when we're stepping into something new. That's where growth actually happens.
Lately, I've been holding on to this quote from Seneca: "What a wonderful privilege, to have the weaknesses of a man and the serenity of a god." I've been trying to bring that into my new role, and honestly, it has changed everything. I feel more grounded, less anxious, and I've actually been able to contribute from day one, something I've rarely felt before.
Of course! I think there's a lot of value in the stoic philosophy for the modern world, and you're doing a fantastic job bringing that wisdom into today's world. So thank you!

That's good to hear, keep it up. It is tough, but we can overcome this.
