- Do you find it difficult to set a price for your services, talk about remuneration at an interview, and even more so about increasing your salary? - Do you receive a bunch of certificates, take courses endlessly, but are still not good enough? Of course, there are more successful, qualified, experienced specialists. Where do you care about them? -You are a perfectionist and any imperfection or imperfection drives you crazy. Everything should only be 100 points or not at all. Congratulations! It is quite possible that you have Impostor syndrome. With all the accompanying set: devaluation of your achievements (“It’s just a lucky coincidence”), the confidence that here is another education and you will be worthy of being called a specialist in your field, and constant worry about how to do everything on your own. Great. In addition to the quite obvious neurosis, impostor syndrome deprives you of money (absolutely earned), because in order to earn good money you need to tell the world: I am a good specialist, my time, effort, knowledge and skills are worth so much. Yes, this is a kind of offering yourself on the service market, the ability to show your uniqueness, strengths and advantages, tell how you will be useful to people. How does the Pretender's fear of evaluation awaken here! They will just say: “Why did you decide that you are even a specialist? Have you seen how many lawyers/psychologists/cosmetologists there are around? But you have no experience or experience!” I suggest talking to your Imposter: “Will they tell the truth to your face? Yeah, they won’t say it, but they’ll think to themselves. You are still a unique person, you read minds. Well, let them think to themselves, there is no harm or benefit to you.” They said it directly with words through their mouths. Okay, why did the person do this? Maybe it's envy of your courage? Or a projection of your own insecurities? Or a desire to reduce the price of your work. In any case, can the opinion of another person change your idea of ​​yourself? Are you giving him a lot of authority? And in this place, we discover the main belief of the Impostor that “I am bad”, the rest is derivative to it: I can’t cope, I’m not worthy, I’ll make a mistake... This post grows beautifully: Procrastination. If you are sure in advance that you will not succeed perfectly, it is very difficult to do anything. Tasks are postponed until later, and they are either not done at all, or (if it is impossible to ignore) they are postponed until the last minute, and then they are completed in an emergency mode, sacrificing sleep and rest. Pay is inadequate for the efforts. A specialist does his best when performing work and does an excellent job, but he values ​​his work low, so he is afraid to ask for more money for his services. The next stage is burnout. What to do? Assign your own value, be on your side, be your own best friend, collect victories and achievements. And do not allow the Impostor to take your money. If you recognize yourself, I invite you to consultations and psychological intensive in Altai 13-18 August we will work with our Impostors and show Self - strong, creative, amazing in its uniqueness.
