Imposter Syndrome
This is my first post ever on Reddit so here it goes nothing. I have been certified for almost a year. I started out in court and lasted about 5 months because it was too much to handle. I took some time off in March, April and I started doing freelance depos here in California in May. It has been great so far, but lately I've been doubting myself and second-guessing everything that I do instead of feeling more confident. My question is for those veteran reporters, how did it feel your first year reporting?
The CRB here in California is soooob strict and I just feel like I can get in trouble for any little thing. Just recently I was messing around with my settings on Eclipse, and I think I threw off my MTFS. I will try to get some help on that tomorrow.
I just feel like I'm a year in and I'm barely getting my head above water. How did you feel your first year? How did you deal with the overwhelming requirements and standards?
I have been taking it pretty slow only one to two depos a week so I can learn as I go.
