Okay guys, what do you call a fake noodle? An Im-Pasta!
Raise your hand, how real is imposter syndrome? It’s driven by fear, anxiety, and honestly, it doesn’t feel good. There’s a great quote out there that says - “God doesn’t call the equipped, he equips the called”. This fear and anxiety can keep us from taking that next step in our business, life, family, or job but let’s remember that He’s calling us into that place so he can provide the answer.
Fear and Anxiety
Let’s think back to caveman days. They had a lot of fear and anxiety, I mean they could starve to death, they could be attacked by a saber tooth tiger. At the end of the day, the survival instinct kicks in and it’s a real physiological response of ‘fight or flight.’ Back in the day, it was survival. And we still have these responses of fight or flight. In my mind, we have three options: Fight, Flight, or Freeze. So ask yourself, what is your reaction in these moments?
Being Ready is a Myth
We think we need to have the perfect house before inviting people over, or the perfect body before going to the gym. We think we need the perfect systems in place before coaching others or the perfect craft before opening our own company. We have to trust that God is going to equip us for these moments! We are called to walk with God step by step; He says he is going to light our path but we don’t have the whole road map of where He is bringing us.
You Are An Overcomer
Remember, we are more than conquerors because He gave us a spirit of power and love! Check those voices that you hear, because that Imposter Syndrome is not from God. We all feel scared and we have to work hard to face those fears. We have allowed ourselves and those around us to stop facing those fears, and that is what has created the divides in our world right now. We have become a society that is obsessed with the victim mentality, and that is not from God. And it can be hard, but that’s why God gave us that Spirit and the power to overcome these things.
So go out, do the darn thing, do not fear because God is with you! I love the analogy that the kingdom of God is like a jungle gym and He gives us some freedom to decide where we’re going to play. God lets you choose where to bring your business as a Christian entrepreneur, He gives you choices! It’s like our beautiful rivers; they have many different paths and ways but they all reach the ocean. When we listen to God’s voice and follow His light on our path, we will reach the destination. This is the time to make some serious changes, some serious gains. We have people who are ready to fight for their future, and the rest will Flee or Freeze. Which one are you?
