Ask HN: I’ve lost faith in myself as a developer, how do I get it back?
by cwitty88 on Hacker News.
I’ve been a software developer for about 12 years, the last 8 of which I have been the CTO of a company that is growing like crazy. Recently I have been doubting every move that I make and have lost all faith in myself as a developer. When I look at a new feature I just think that I will make it shitty or get called out on not doing things the “right” way. The thing is, I know I’m a decent developer but I find myself doubting every single decision that I make. Is this burn out? How can I get out of this funk and move on?
