Failing to achieve doesn’t make you a fraud. 要知道成功并不需要完美。做什么事没成功,并不代表你是一个 fraud(骗子)。人这一生都在修正自己,不完美是常态,完美了、圆满了就该大结局啦。Offering yourself kindness and compassion instead of judgment and self-doubt can help you maintain realistic perspective and motivate you to pursue healthy self-growth.给予自己善良和同情,而不是自我批评和自我怀疑,可以帮助你保持相对客观的视角,激励你追求健康的自我成长。希望这期节目,能够帮助到受“冒名顶替综合症”困扰的你。请留言告诉我们:对于今天的节目,你有什么想说的,或想分享的。
