Good morning, Have you ever heard of this saying "FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT"? Well I'm sure you have , but let me talk briefly on it , before I start , do well to read it till the end. "FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT" Is an idea that acting confident, successful or capable even before you truly are can help you eventually become those things. It is about stepping into a version of yourself that you're still growing into.
This saying can push you forward or quietly destroy you . This would now lead us to it's advantages and disadvantages.
ADVANTAGES
Builds confidence
Speeds up skill Development
Encourages growth
Opens doors
DISADVANTAGES
It can damage your reputation
It becomes dangerous when there's no learning behind the performance
It encourages shallow validation if not careful
Well here are some of the advantages I could bring out , so moving forward I'll say that faking it till you make it works only if the fake part is actually ;
Acting confident
Taking initiative
Pushing beyond fear
and not ;
Lying about your ability
Pretending to be what you're not
Building your identity on performance alone
So personally , instead of faking it till I make it , I'll rather Act the part, do the work, Grow into the role and Make it . Or Walk in confidence while building real competence .
Thank you for reading this far, maybe another time I'll do a video to explain extensively , stay Jiggy.. thank God it's Friday .
