@adamdelduca: One of the weirdest things about growth is that it can actually make you feel less confident for a while. When you stay inside your comfort zone, you usually feel pretty capable. You know what you're doing. You know what to expect. You know how to solve the problems in front of you. Then you decide to do something bigger and suddenly you feel like a beginner again. And that's uncomfortable. I think a lot of people mistake that feeling for a sign that they're not good enough. It's usually the opposite. You feel uncomfortable because you've finally put yourself in a situation that requires you to grow. Every skill you're good at today probably had a period where you were terrible at it. Every confident person you see probably had a period where they had absolutely no idea what they were doing. The difference is that they kept going long enough to get through that stage. That's something I've had to remind myself of over and over again. Feeling inexperienced doesn't mean you're incapable. Making mistakes doesn't mean you made the wrong decision. Feeling stretched doesn't mean you're failing. Sometimes it just means you're learning. So the next time you start questioning yourself because something feels harder than expected, give yourself a little more time. You might not need a different path. You might just need more reps. Nobody skips the beginner stage. The goal is simply not to stay there forever.
I always tell myself that the I start to feel comfortable, that's when I need to break out and do something uncomfortable, because living in that uncomfortable space is where I grow the most.
