I struggle with feelings of incompetence.
negative reinforced experiences from childhood and in past work. Part of it I believe is accurate to the flaws in some of my abilities, but I now believe a lot of whats causing me to fall behind, is my own built up beliefs about my capabilities. I've had math anxiety growing up, which also contributed.
in one of my last jobs i was humiliated by the boss for not being able to learn the system on the computer as fast. I think since that moment, which reinforced those feelings from childhood.. it has been hard for me to accept job offers when they come. I sell myself short, and am constantly self sabotaging.. sometimes not even responding back for the interview, because i feel incompetent from the start. Id like to hear from others, about your experience with these types of feelings and what helps.
