Imposter Syndrome is SEXY!

Imposter Syndrome is SEXY!

Before you start arguing with me and telling me that your Imposter Syndrome is definitely not sexy – hear me out and for a second stop fighting for your #limitations. Just for a sec. Humour me.

Here’s the deal.

If you’re reading this newsletter you’re somebody who already is successful.

Told you! Stop fighting for your limitations and don’t argue with me just for a second. PLEASE!

I know my audience.


You’re somebody who already is #successful.


It doesn’t mean you can’t be more successful. You definitely can.

And I am sure you want to.

I do. Like big time! Unapologetically.


Now – we could talk about what does it mean to be successful – but that’s not where I want to go today. Some other time.


Today I want you to see something else.


As we have just agreed you already are successful.


DESPITE of your struggles with Imposter Syndrome.


Despite of those internal fears you have.

Fear that you’re not good enough.

Fear that you’re too much.

Fear that other people have it all figured out and you don’t.

Fear that you’re not academic enough.

Fear that you’re too academic and not streetwise enough.

Fear that you’re not good looking enough.

Fear that you’re too good looking and people don’t take you seriously.

Fear that you’re too loud and extroverted. ?

Fear that you’re too shy and introverted.

Fear that you’re too young.

Fear that you’re too old.

Fear that you’re too emotional.

Fear that you don’t know how to express your emotions.

Fear that you’re too big.

Fear that you’re too skinny.

Fear that you’re not worthy to have more. Because of your background, upbringing, culture, skin color, gender…….

Fear that you can’t have great future because of your past.

Fear that you’re the only one in the meeting who has no clue what’s going on.

Fear that you don’t have clarity about what you really want to do in life.

Fear you will not be accepted if you’re different from everyone else in the room.

Fear of being vulnerable - thinking it is a sign of weakness.

FEAR OF BEING YOUR REAL YOU!


I could go on. The list is endless. The ones I highlighted in bold are / used to be my fears. (they sometimes still come up)


Here’s my point.


IF DESPITE the fears you’re currently carrying you’ve reached the level of success you’ve achieved so far IMAGINE what you could achieve if you didn’t have those fears?!!!

Just imagine for a second.


Answer this question for yourself:

“Who would I BE, how would I FEEL and how would I ACT if I did not have these fearful thoughts?”

What answer comes up for you?


Stop and ask again.

“Who would I BE, how would I FEEL and how would I ACT if I did not have these fearful thoughts?”


What opens up?


Possibility?

Freedom?

Relief?

Let me know in comments or DM.



AND THAT’S WHAT MAKES YOU SEXY MY FRIEND!!!!

Despite the limiting beliefs you have been carrying for years – you have achieved success you have already achieved. Massive congratulations!

It tells me that you’re

-?????????determined

-?????????stronger than you think

-?????????resourceful

-?????????persistent

-?????????warrior


Surely you can see how hot that is, can’t you? ?

How hot YOU ARE!


****

So let’s reframe the Imposter Syndrome because it has a bad rep.

What Imposter Syndrome REALLY is – it’s an #opportunity to

1.??????get present to your internal limiting beliefs,

2.??????reframe and rewire those stories that are currently running your life,

3.??????and become limitless instead of limited.


It just needs your focus and willingness to do the work to become unstoppable.

?

WHO’S WITH ME?

With LOVE
