Beat your imposter syndrome and self-doubt on your personal Hero’s Journey

You probably know the Hero’s Journey popularized by Joseph Campbell, the basic structure for many beloved stories. A hero gets called to action, enters an unknown world, faces challenges and temptations, fails, learns what they need to change, applies said new insights, et voilà: success.

I just realized you can apply this to your imposter syndrome and self-doubt. Many of you feel (or fear) you don’t have the skills to bring your big, new project to an end. I’m here to tell you: you don’t need to.

The hero at the beginning of the story doesn’t have what it takes to bring their journey to a successful end. It’s the journey itself that transforms the character into someone who has what it takes to finish it. The character at the end of the journey is not the same as the character at the beginning of the journey.

So start ambitious projects that you feel underqualified for. It’s not imposter syndrome or writer’s block. You're in the challenges and temptations phase of your journey. Don’t let them hold you back. Let them transform you. Identify the skills you need to acquire to make your journey into a success. Learn. Practise. You’re not “not good enough”—you’re on your Hero’s Journey and you’re on the threshold of your transformation phase.

(I told my husband about this idea and he played Don't stop believin' by Journey. Per-fection.)

Now go tackle your dream!

Witchsona idea i ahd a few years ago back when i used apple products and had first gen ipad pro, may revisit this; ive changed a lot

villain for Masks a Powered by Apocalypse TTRPG system, their name is the Bee-Holder; they use nanites to fight; sound like Him from PPG

new profile pic, rebranding under Hipster Gnome for 2024 and onward, this will be my year; this was drawn using Clip Studio Pro on an Asus Zenscreen Ink

random word prompt, why am I like this? words were sexy and favorite food and I chose french fries lol

test comic for a webcomic idea i have, still in the works, charcters are being redeigned(i keep telling myself ill get to it)

the redesign of my test comic character, i thought, but what if fat? and since i am fat, i made main character fat, i like the design better, more to come

take it.

I'd like alternative names for fantasy races. If you have any alternative names, especially for Dwarves, let me know. Original my handle/screen name was gonna be Hipster Dwarf but I felt it's not PC by today's standards and I didn't feel comfortable using it. So if you have some let me know by commenting below. The only one I came up with is Fjell or mountain and Kyn for kin combo lazily into Fjellkyn. Sláinte!
