Parkinson's Law

If you set 3 hours for a job that takes 1 hour, that job will take 3 hours.

"Girl Boss doesn't tell anyone the target until 80% is done."

Goal Announcing Psychology

Declaring goals too quickly makes the brain feel "successful" and reduces the motivation for action.

"You don't have Imposter Syndrome because you're 'not good enough', but because you're 'expecting perfection' too high."

Overcoming Imposter Syndrome

The need for perfection is the enemy of action, and error is learning.

True Girl Boss isn't perfect, but they dare to "start when they're not ready." Change your focus from being "the best" to being "a better version of yourself every day" (Continuous Improvement), and then the symptoms of inconfidence gradually disappear.
