I've been getting this question a lot lately in interviews, and am having trouble coming up with something. Either it's imposter syndrome and I think that nothing I've worked on was challenging, or I really haven't.

I'm wondering what other people would answer for this question, and how much detail would you give?

I'm specifically asking this question in a Software Engineering/Programmer context, not that interested in manager type challenges.

I'm a Software Engineer and I often want to work on side projects and cool ideas I have, and I'll often get started but then at some point I start the negative talk - 'you're not good enough to do this', 'you don't know what you're doing', 'this isn't good practice', 'this won't work' etc.

I was wondering how others deal with this negative talk and self doubt. I try to shut it down when it starts up but I can never truly shake it.
