How I Use My Impostor Syndrome

To Combat my Rampant Personal Puffery

I know it’s not becoming, but sometimes being a worldly writer-type gets the best of me.

I look at my bank balance, and can’t believe how made I’ve got it. Wow. I am really something.

Then when I realize that my ego levels are getting too high, I understand it is probably time for some introspection and fraud-calling. I ask myself what kind of person would even use the word “puffery.”

Then I realize that I am not a fraud. But I also realize all of my minor successes are not totally unearned.

I can’t take the credit either. The simple fact is that I am blessed.

I work some. I’m lucky some. When I start something I am usually too stupid or stubborn to quit it.

Not an impostor.

I write articles about how to write articles for a place that publishes articles about how to write the articles. Have you got what it takes to get what it takes? Free Quiz Here.
