Any suggestions on how to deal with imposter syndrome?

Hello all, I have a mindset/strategy question:


I just finished the Cyber Security Side Hustles course, and am also wrapping up the Cloud Security course. One thing that occurred to me was that I already have a ton of knowledge, and most of the skills needed to replicate the method that was outlined in Side Hustles. Yet, I am still trying to shake off the feeling that I don't have enough skill to pull it off. I suppose the same could be said for my existing IT skillset. I often feel like I am not ready yet.


I think I am dealing with a nasty bout of imposter syndrome, and I wondered if anyone else had any ideas on how to deal with this. Is there a routine that you use to stop it? Do you just push through it and do the work anyway? Do you just try to bury it, ignore it, and move on? Ideas and suggestions welcome.

Like Nike said just DO IT.

I had a friend that wanted to build a tube amp, well he collected parts and wasn't able to find some magic jellybean component(granted there were alternatives same values just not in name.

He has still not started.

Me on the otherhand sometimes I figure stuff out as I go. Sometimes answers are providing during the process and if you don't bump your head a few times your not learning..


So just get started and your over the biggest hurdle. Just remember you have resources google, co workers friends....
