What is ‘imposter syndrome’ and is self doubt slowing down your career?

Do you ever feel like a fraud when talking in meetings? Or maybe that you feel way underqualified for landing the job of your dreams?

If so, you may be dealing with an extreme case of self-doubt called imposter syndrome. Turns out, 70 percent of millennials are going through the same things as you.

Not to mention, some of the highest achievers are hitting these roadblocks. Serena Williams and Tom Hanks being a couple of them.

This fraudulent thought may stop you from chasing your biggest goals or allow you to feel pride when achieving others. Recognizing these thoughts and pushing past your self-doubt is one of the essentials to success.

If you think you may be dealing with imposter syndrome, Mint created an infographic explaining the different types, how each type may affect your finances, and tips to overcoming it.

Push past your self-doubt and push past to conquer anything you put your mind to!
