Between rapidly changing pandemic-time rules (curfews! rule of six! weddings of 15!); talk of a 'second wave' and the incoming end of the furlough scheme, you'd be forgiven for feeling somewhat anxious.
If the latter issue does affect you, perhaps you're experiencing heightened levels of panic. While a fresh initiative – the 'Job Retention Scheme', in which the government will top up your wages if you're reduced to part time hours – has been announced, as you know, this only applies to 'viable jobs.' This somewhat clumsy, cruel language refers to occupations in industries which are still suffering the effects of coronavirus measures, such as those in the night time economy or in retail.

The leaves are turning, a new chill is in the air. Time to light some scented candles, draw the curtains, put a log on the fire. But wait, you’re not still harping on about hygge are you? I’m afraid this year’s autumnal lifestyle trend will require rather more from you than merely flinging down a few sheepskin rugs. Things are about to get a little more hardcore. Cottagecore, in fact.

Books written by psychologists and career coaches on imposter syndrome
Have you ever felt like your success is all due to luck? Or that it's only a matter of time before everyone discovers that you're not talented or you're a fraud? If so, you may have what's called imposter syndrome. While it's technically not a medical prognosis, psychologists and researchers alike acknowledge it as a real problem many struggle with.
According to an article in the The Journal of the American Medical Association, imposter syndrome is defined as "a pattern of behavior wherein people (even those with adequate external evidence of success) doubt their abilities and have a persistent fear of being exposed as a fraud." In other words, you don't believe your own achievements are due to your abilities; and you think it's merely a matter of time before people realize you're incapable.
