All the wrong people have imposter syndrome.

As you begin your journey as a business owner, you're going to be networking with all kinds of seasoned veterans, and most often jumping into things that you may not feel fully prepared for. It will seem like others have it all figured out--their marketing is on point, they are making a steady income, and they have a great reputation around town. Can I tell you a secret? They are all faking it in some way. Part of the key is diving in and using the old adage of faking it until you make it.

No matter how well you plan, how many experts you have on your team, how many books you read, you're going to be confronted with situations that could not have been anticipated, or simply don't have an easy answer. That's when you need to dig into your network, approach problems from your values, and do your best. You can pivot if something doesn't go as planned and do better next time. But don't let yourself be paralyzed by indecision.

Believe in yourself, surround yourself with a team to help you make the best decisions possible and take the leap, and you are WAY ahead of the curve.
