When I landed my first developer job, I expected to feel accomplished.

Instead, I felt like a fraud.

💭 “What if I’m not good enough?”

💭 “What if someone finds out I don’t belong here?”

I later realized that imposter syndrome is common—even among senior developers.

💡 What Helped Me Overcome It

1️⃣ Stop Comparing Your Day 1 to Someone Else’s Year 5

I used to think I was slow because others solved problems faster.

But experience = speed.

2️⃣ Asking Questions Shows Strength, Not Weakness

Senior devs actually respect people who ask thoughtful questions.

🎯 Final Thoughts

If you're struggling with imposter syndrome, remember:

✔ You belong here.

✔ Growth comes with time.

✔ No one knows everything—not even senior engineers.
