I’m currently sitting by the pool at Emirates Palace, feeling like I have fooled someone; like I have cracked a code that no one else knows about and I am waiting for someone to walk over to me and say, I’m sorry, sir, but this pool is reserved for people that are better than you.

But that’s a ridiculous notion. No one is better than me, a point illustrated on a daily basis. So, why do I feel this way?

It’s called imposter syndrome and it affects everyone in some form or another. I’ve been reading more and more about this lately. It’s the notion that one does not deserve the achievements that they are currently experiencing. It stems from the fact that one may not think that they’re good enough to enjoy the splendors of their lives.
