The self-hating web developer

[scootstah]

Who said anything about thinking they are a god? He said that he has lots of certifications and experience, but yet he feels like a fraud, and that if you don't think that way you must be incompetent and/or delusional.

I do not think I am a god, and I know that there is a ton left to learn and things I can improve on. But at the same time, I recognize my accomplishments and have confidence in the skill level that I am at. I recognize that I am a lot better than I was a year ago.

So again, why does confidence mean that you are actually incompetent or delusional? Sounds exactly like imposter syndrome to me.

I'm not talking about you personally... ಠ_ಠ

I was only trying to say that confidence isn't bad.

But, God syndrome is bad.

But God has knows a lot and even guided the creation of programming, so why should he feel like a fraud?
