The Right to Roam This walk across private land was not unusual. Thousands of distance walkers in Britain, regularly do the same thing , which is different from what people typically do in the United States. If you wanted to walk across America, you’d have to do it on a combination of public trails and roads and you certainly couldn’t cut across Madonna’s property. In the United Kingdom, the freedom to walk through private land is known as “the right to roam.” The movement to win this right was started in the 1930s by a rebellious group of young people who called themselves “ramblers” and spent their days working in the factories of Manchester, England.

I haven't experienced imposter syndrome, and maybe you haven't either An Article by Rach Smith rachsmith.com I have never felt like an “imposter”. I have always deserved to be here, I’ve worked hard. I don’t suffer from a “syndrome”. Identifying the gaps in my knowledge and being aware of what I don’t know is part of my vocation. In recent years it’s become trendy to discuss how we all apparently suffer from this imposter syndrome - an inability to internalize one's accomplishments and a persistent fear of being exposed as a “fraud”. I take two issues with this: it minimizes the impact that this experience has on people that really do suffer from it. we’re labelling what should be considered positive personality traits - humility, an acceptance that we can’t be right all the time, a desire to know more, as a “syndrome” that we need to “deal with”, “get over” or “get past”. workknowledge
