[QUOTE="jan28, post: 30815, member: 3054"] Thank you for posting this because I promise you, you’re not the only one that feels this way and it is completely valid. I, too, come from the same background and have been feeling the same recently. I’ve seen the incoming vac schemers for my firm on LinkedIn and I cannot help but compare myself to them and question myself. However, I’ve found that spending the time having negative thoughts especially about myself is actually a big disservice to all my hard work until now and the obstacles I’ve had to personally overcome. I tell myself ‘not me that went through all that only to fall at the last hurdle because of self-confidence!!’ As Dan said, positive affirmations is so helpful. Just even the fact that you’re on the scheme shows they see huge potential in you, especially when there are people with better grades etc. as you say. I think you’re the real winner here as you’ve managed to get on the scheme DESPITE your background so don’t waste that win by worrying so much that you forget to enjoy the scheme! x [/QUOTE]
