anxiety, stress, impostor syndrome "i had a professor in college who used to start solving every problem with the same dialogue proff: what's the first step to solving any problem? class: dont panic proff: and why is that? class: because we know more than we think we do i think about that a lot tbh. it didnt occur to me until much later that he meant for us to apply that dialogue outside of the classroom to any problem. because we always know more than we think we do. we are all an amalgam of random information that ends up being relevant with surprising frequency"
