    I suffer from this all the time. It doesn't help battling depression either. But I have never looked at it the way you suggested in this video. I have good and bad days from time to time. My family and friends help pull me out of it. But it is always a struggle. Thanks for the Video, Pat. I needed to hear this today.

    I have a MBA in Human Ressources, and i'm now doing IT online courses while i'm working and taking care of my family. Sometimes i feel like i'll. Fail. Your videos either here or in DPM are so great. You're definitly saving me from drawning with your words and kindness. You're an amazing person. Thx

    Wow, Pat. I'm back! I used to listen to your podcast years ago and was always inspired. Then I stopped. Not sure why, but when I look back over the interim I can see that I stopped trying and thinking and dreaming and working toward my goals. Then the notification for this video popped up on my phone and I listened this morning as I walked my dog. You nailed it. I let impostor syndrome suppress my efforts. Thanks for the perspective and inspiration and thanks for consistently putting this message and these tips out there! Today, the life jacket reached me!

    Psychologist stopping by to say that there are some really great nuggets of advice here! A lot of times we don't actually answer the "what if" questions. We set them up and then let them linger and scare the crap out of us. Instead, doing what you said and actually working through it (what is the worst that can actually happen here), helps to defuse the scariness of those thoughts. You always have options to get through.

    I can soooo relate to this. I've been sailing around RUclips for over a year, following Pat Flynn and Sean Cannell every day. My insecurities and thoughts of self-doubt are holding me back from making the leap and pressing the record button. I feel myself inching closer to jumping in, but my thoughts hold me back. Thank you, Pat, for this heartfelt reality check. It gives me something to ponder and act upon.

    Wow! Been going through this right now. Specially after selling everything we owned in the USA and moving my family to South America. I started vlogging our journey on our channel but kept thinking, why would anyone want to watch my videos. I'm not as good as so and so. I'm not interesting enough. This video has encouraged me to to continue and not give a crap about my insecurities. I so needed this! 🥰

    Wow-the universe delivered! It is so needed this at this exact moment! Right now-by me "typing out loud", my heart is pounding with angst. But your statements in this VID made me say to myself " What is the risk?" I love how real you are in what you do, and how humorous you are! I am just starting out on my journey to a new path-to get "unstuck", and your resources are amazing! I am in the process of gathering information and guidance but am twirling with it all and not knowing where else to go after I binge watch your vids. BUT-I love to learn-so here we go! Thanks for helping me not drown today. :)

      I’ve been fighting imposter syndrome for months. Struggling to be motivated to post content. But I recently bought your superfans book and it was the BEST decision I’ve made in months! You’ve woken me back up and made me remember why I started LoveLiveSave and how many people depend on me posting deals so they can save money for their families.
      By the way I’m also a HUGE Back to the Future fan, have been since I was a little kid :)

    Pat, I am really grateful you put yourself out there in your videos. I don't know precisely what I struggle with, but recently I thought I wanted to collect Pokemon because everyone else was. Well long story short, my dream has always been collecting Digimon. I wasted far too much money chasing this impossible dream of collecting Pokemon cards when all I truly wanted was Digimon from the original english set. Not sure how you would describe this idiocy on my part, but again I am thankful you put yourself out there and connect with your viewers. I have been an entrepreneur for a while now myself and now i'm getting into duck farming (I know, strange). Thinking of putting some videos up on it. Also im a 2nd year PhD student for Homeland Security. Sometimes I feel like my focus is on too many things, maybe that's the problem.

But the drowning person and boat thought experiment really put it into prospective for me. It was like you were talking to just me. Thank you Pat. You continue to inspire me daily. From DJskoob.

I think my only option is to hire someone but can't afford to pay them and I have huge trust issues. Regardless, we all have our battles to fight. Just wanted to rant a bit
