Sometimes people develop such behavior because they lack encouragement or moral support. It's also when people attack you because of their insecurities and you are just too good for them. I've been through the kind of feeling wherein I feel that i don't deserve a promotion because I am not good enough. That i don't have enough skills and intellect to carry on with the tasks. But all you need is a support group and someone to validate everything you do.
