Imposter syndrome is a persistent and powerful feeling or impression that you are weaker, less intelligent, less virtuous, or just in general worth less than others see you or than your status and accomplishments indicate, regardless of whether it's accurate or not.

It's an involuntary feeling, so it is very difficult to shake, even by recounting all your accomplishments and skills or people reassuring you.
