The imposter syndrome only escalates as you go upward in education. Maybe relevant quote from DFW at the grocery store?

    Worship power, you will end up feeling weak and afraid, and you will need ever more power over others to numb you to your own fear. Worship your intellect, being seen as smart, you will end up feeling stupid, afraid, always on the verge of being found out.
