Here’s a basic truth: 

Sometimes it feels like the obstacles don’t stop coming: internal demons, like resistance, self-doubt, and overwhelm; and external demons, like competitors, negative influences, shady marketing tactics, scary technology, lack of money, and scarce resources.

This is normal. 

Everyone from Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg to actress Natalie Portman say they’ve dealt with paralysing feelings of inadequacy. Most people with competence, and that’s all of us, have some Impostor Syndrome, because we know how much we don’t know. So that’s the problem.
