after years of doing code reviews I've learned that the truth behind impostor syndrome is not "you are not dumb" it is "everyone else is also dumb"

That also might be true 🤣|

I feel that I was lucky to be hired as a developer. I can't really code or understand how to solve problems. I will always rely on others repo's and code to do my job. I'm afraid that my coworkers will think that I'm a dumb guy and don't deserve to be here.

@TheveloperX 22 дні тому

It seems to me that only intelligent people are able to see how much work they still have to do to become better, stupid people do not see or do not want to see that they could be better. Soo in my opinion, if you see that you can be better, thats actually sign that you are not dumb. Noticing it is first step of getting better. What if most of your coworkers are actually feeling the same and thinking ,,what if they think I'm dumb,, ? Also, even if they think that about you, does it change anything in your life, or maybe its just your imagination ?

I often couldn't fill the job application because I feel I am not that much enough for the job role.

@TheveloperX 22 дні тому

No one will ever be ,,enough,, for specific role. Probably you will never see an offer thats 100% matching your skills. When I've got my job, I didnt know most of the things and technologies they used. It's all about you being able to learn that if needed. What's the worst thing that can happen if you apply for job, that you feel you are not enough for ? You won't be hired i guess, but there is still a lot of other companies and job offers you can apply for. So maybe just apply, take a risk, and learn, maybe there is something you can improve.

Thanks for the video. I do agree with small projects and experiment thing. It's so overwhelming seeting enew technology coming out every day. I have lots of things to learn as a frontend developer and it seems that it doesn't get even close. But I think it's relaxing sometimes stop and just explore new tech, for me, it could be backend or mobile app such things I'm purely interested. I've been looking for a job over one year, and I don't even wanna get into a big company, just a job where I can code. I feel a little bit frustrated tbh but I will keep going on. Once again, thanks for making this video. it's motivated me 👍💪

@TheveloperX 22 дні тому

Well, in my opinion. Even if I decide to specialize in backend, I'll never know everything, there is just too much of new things everyday. It's all about me being able to learn that things if needed. From the other hand, IT is field when you will never feel bored, there is always something new. Keep going man, you will get that job ! 💪

i feel really stupid and that i dont learn fast enogh

@gauravtejpal8901 10 днів тому

Same

@TheveloperX 6 днів тому

What is ,,fast enough,, for you ? Maybe you are setting unrealistic expectations for yourself ? Everyone has their own pace, maybe one thing is taking you longer to learn, but you are great in learning other thing. Also maybe you are learning wrong way ? For examle many people seems to enjoy books and learning from them seems to come easily to them, however there is nothing in the world that i hate more than books, it's just not my way of learning. So maybe its not that you learn slowly, maybe just the way you learn is not great for you, or you are not learning correct thing

@TheveloperX 6 днів тому

Why do you think this happens? Is there some factor that makes some days good and others bad?

@gauravtejpal8901 6 днів тому

@@TheveloperX When things go according to plan, it is easy to feel happy. When things don't go according to plan, it's easy to get frustrated and dejected. I think it happens because of the expectations we carry. Ultimately, one has to learn to accept both states of mind.
