Today I wanted to talk a little bit about imposter syndrome and how one of the best sports stories going right now shows how amazing belief in yourself, your abilities and your success can be.

Brock Purdy, quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers just won his first playoff game. This is a guy who started as the third string quarterback, was the very last pick in the draft, is only 23 years old and yet he is playing like one of the best quarterbacks in football.

So many of us struggle with feeling a bit like a fraud when we are successful at something. But not Brock Purdy. This guy oozes confidence and swagger, and why shouldn’t he? He’s in the NFL, that means he is supremely talented. No one achieves success by accident.

So take a page from Brock Purdy’s book and believe in yourself and believe that you are exactly where you should be in those moments of great success.
