    I’ve had a terrible time whenever I tried to fake it. Something goes terribly wrong, or I’m completely at a loss of how to play it off like I know what I’m doing, and I’m super stressed out the entire time.

    I’ve had a much better time admitting when I realize I don’t know what I’m doing. Sometimes I have permission to try to figure it out as I go, so then mistakes and failures are expected by everyone involved. Sometimes admitting my ignorance opens up training, or at least advice on where to start on a project.
