[QUOTE="AvniD, post: 91915, member: 17155"] I'm a first-generation lawyer and an international applicant, so I completely relate with feeling like you don't belong. It was only till I moved to London and started interacting with other future trainees about their journeys into law that I started to realise that I have worked really, really hard and deserve my place in this industry as much as they do, even though our paths, timelines and goals are different. This also made me realise that no matter what effort one puts into dodging the imposter syndrome, sometimes the circumstances we find ourselves in need to change for our perspective to change as well. Maybe that holds true for you too in some way? I also completely agree with the insight that [USER=1572]@Dheepa[/USER] has provided- reminding yourself that you belong and not letting slip-ups dictate your mindset requires active, conscious effort and Dheepa could not have outlined this better. Lastly, I have to say that you've done so, so well for yourself and your courage to post here is absolutely admirable 👏👏👏 [/QUOTE]
