Impostor syndrome, "also known as the impostor phenomenon, is a psychological pattern where individuals doubt their accomplishments and have a persistent [[fear]] of being exposed as a fraud, despite evidence of their competence. It's not a formal diagnosis, but a common experience, especially among high-[[Achievement|achievers]], where success is often attributed to external factors like luck rather than their own abilities."<ref>[https://www.google.com/search?q=Impostor+syndrome%2C+also+known+as+the+impostor+phenomenon%2C+is+a+psychological+pattern+where+individuals+doubt+their+accomplishments+and+have+a+persistent+fear+of+being+exposed+as+a+fraud%2C+despite+evidence+of+their+competence.+It%27s+not+a+formal+diagnosis%2C+but+a+common+experience%2C+especially+among+high-achievers%2C+where+success+is+often+attributed+to+external+factors+like+luck+rather+than+their+own+abilities.&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Imposter syndrome]</ref>

"The [[Jonah complex|Jonah Complex]] and Imposter Syndrome, while both related to [[self-doubt]] and potential limitations, differ in their core focus. The Jonah Complex, stemming from the biblical story, is a fear of one's own potential and the responsibilities that come with it. Imposter Syndrome, on the other hand, is the persistent feeling of being a fraud despite evidence of one's competence. Essentially, the Jonah Complex is about avoiding success and growth, while Imposter Syndrome is about doubting the legitimacy of one's achievements." - [https://www.google.com/search?q=jonah+complex+vs+imposter+syndrome&oq=Jonah+complex+vs&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCAgBEAAYFhgeMgYIABBFGDkyCAgBEAAYFhgeMg0IAhAAGIYDGIAEGIoFMg0IAxAAGIYDGIAEGIoFMg0IBBAAGIYDGIAEGIoFMgoIBRAAGKIEGIkFMgoIBhAAGIAEGKIEMgcIBxAAGO8FMgYICBAuGEDSAQg2NzQ5ajBqMagCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Jonah complex vs. imposter syndrome]
