The I don't know in my head
Journal
I presume we all have these moments, these moments in which we are
confronted by a situation, task, request, or question, and the first
thing that pops up is, I don't know. But, do you really, don't
know?
I have moments like so many times a day. This is the reason why I
am sometimes, well, most of the time, scared of my work email. There are
moments in which I would get a question or request, I read it, and at
first, I panic, impostor syndrome kicks in, and my first thought is, I
don't know.
Then, I have a sip of my coffee, or mate, whichever I am fancying
that day, step back, calm myself down, breathe, and try to work my way
into figuring it out.
But those moments of self-doubt, and the first thought I have when
confronted with a "tough" situation, immediately sort of giving up and
saying I don't know, they get me every single time.
