False modesty isn’t fooling anyone
Stop it.
Stop self-deprecating; you aren’t masking your feelings of fear by beating yourself up.
You may fool amateurs. Professionals see it as a way to hide and a way to distract you from what matters, the work.
You can’t think and know at the same time, and the art of false modesty claims to “know” you aren’t good enough.
How about you take a different path?
