    "...it describes people who are unable to internalize their accomplishments.    they remain convinced that they are frauds and do not deserve the success they have achieved..."I don't know about you... but that sound A LOT like some Nurses I know. Heck, it sounds like EVERY Nurse who has ever walked the walk! We all started our careers suffering from The Impostor Syndrome. I thought it only appropriate to chat a bit about it and give you some actionable tips on how to beat it.
Tips to overcome Impostor Syndrome:

Fake it till you make it. just keep trying, we all started scared.
Focus on what you bring to the table, not what you don’t know
Own your success. you earned your place here. not everyone can do this job
Lay it all out on the table.  being wrong doesn’t make you a fake, or any less qualified. It simply makes you a learner.
