"Self esteem is as important for our general wellbeing as legs to a table. It is essential for our physical and mental health and for our happiness." -Louise Hart.

 

"And see that all these things are done in wisdom and order; for it is not requisite that a [developer] should run faster than [they have] strength. And again, it is expedient that [they] should be diligent, that thereby [they] might win the prize; therefore, all things must be done in order."

      DO YOU RELATE??

  • Try to work on your own avoiding any kind of collaboration except for the most superficial?

  • Do you avoid exposing yourself to feedback and constructive criticism?

  • Do you often carry on working overlooking a problem that could have been solved quicker if you just communicated?

  • Are you defensive to criticism or have a hard time receiving compliments about your work? (Which might lead to...)

  • Creating super high and maybe impossible expectations which may also lead to:

  • Self destructive perfectionism levels which may result in:

  • Overworking yourself, doing lots of overtime unnecessarily, which could also lead to a martyr complex

DO YOU...

 🌈 Avoid obsessive perfectionism

 🌈 Learn to evaluate yourself in a realistic way

 🌈 Talk to others

 🌈 Keep on learning

 🌈 Look for a mentor

 🌈 Teach. Help others!, you'd be surprised about how much you actually do know

 🌈 Accept and believe compliments for your work

 🌈 See failures as a way to learn success!

 🌈 There's no wrong on saying: I DON'T KNOW!

 

DO NOT GLORIFY

BS

"Real developer syndrome"
