I took a new job that I originally had a lot of ideas about how I could contribute to and felt inspired before I ever came to work.

Now that I see the reality of the situation, I am finding my original ideas may not be what’s needed. I may not yet have all of the skills to do the job at the highest level. I have found a course online that I think is going to really help me learn the skills to do the job. Until I complete it and can implement what I learn, I am feeling like an imposter.

Of course, I will do the best I can until I am able to do better. I guess I am wanting permission because it doesn’t seem good enough or like I should be allowed to do that. I guess one thing is that they’ve been doing it the way I’m doing it since before I got here, so that kind of helps ease my brain a little.
