Discussion on: I'm Slow And That's Okay

For me it's almost entirely inner monologue. I have received feedback that I should make work visible sooner rather than later, but most of my feelings of "slowness" are internally derived. I'm 43 and still working on accepting myself for who I am and how I work 😬

Thanks for the reply.

That sounds a lot like Imposter Syndrome to me. In our work environment, if I have someone talking to me about similar thoughts, I pull up the reports in Jira & break it down, use the system we have to demonstrate that they don't have an issue.

Might not help long term, but seems like it does for a few minutes at least.

It most definitely is! This is a topic my therapist and I discuss often :)
