If you feel like a fraud in your new job role, don't quit! You are in good company.
Almost everyone is a fraud out there who had to:
<ol>
<li>Start a new job without any experience or mentorship.</li>
<li>Encounter a novel, never-before-seen situation.</li>
</ol>
You need to bluff your way through and become better. Fake it till you make it.

Imposter Syndrome Is Good For You

Systems are better than goals. This much we know already!How does this help you? You can hack your dopamine reward system by labelling today's work as a top priority for the king of future you want.This gives us a reason to happily complete our daily tasks, and completing those tasks becomes a reward in itself! The other important benefit that we see afterwards is: If we have followed any system, it has to reap long term rewards!

Hack Your Dopamine Reward Systems

You can improve your mood at anytime, simply by completing meaningful tasks. Action becomes your motivation.

Staying in the imposter zone while building your skills that are necessary for success is probably the only way you should adopt!

If you think your luck is bad, and is getting worse as the years pass, you might feel depressed and pessimistic about life in general.
Instead of feeling that the universe is against you, try to feel this:
THE UNIVERSE OWES YOU!
Like a flipped coin that is showing tails a thousand times in a row, the law of averages catches up and it eventually gives heads.
If things have been in the dumps for a while, cheer up! The universe is now going to give you good news.

The Universe Owes You

We normally believe that money creates more money. This is true.
But those who don't have money are at a loss here. They can't use this frame of mind to be able to create money. They feel cheated.
The reframe that we can use to beat this is:
ENERGY CREATES MONEY!
This will force us to use our energy and generate wealth for yourself. We can also harness our energy by:
<ol>
<li>Sleeping right.</li>
<li>Eating nutritious food.</li>
<li>Exercising at least an hour a day.</li>
<li>Taking smart breaks.</li>
<li>Meditating or doing Yoga.</li>
</ol>

Energy Creates Money

Early in the morning, start to deliberately chant that this day is great and everything is going to go your way only. Say it out loud to yourself:
TODAY, EVERYTHING IS GOING MY WAY!
Do it over a hundred times and tell people this fact, repeating it in the morning air.
By lunchtime you will start to understand the power of positive thinking, auto-suggestion and having an optimistic mindset.
When the day ends, you will have such a wonderful day that you will hate yourself for not trying this earlier.

Today, Everything Is Going Great
