Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• When something actually goes well for me, I wave it off as luck or someone else’s doing
• Even when something goes really well I brush it off as luck or good timing, so the win never actually counts toward believing in myself
• Something good happens and my first move is to hand the credit away
• When something actually goes well I instantly wave it off as luck or good timing or "anyone could’ve done that," so the win never sticks to me
• When something good happens to me I instantly chalk it up to luck or someone else, never anything I did
