#12 Can I Actually Fake it Till I Make it?

I mean - you can have a fake mustache
An actually nonexistent, hence fake boyfriend
A fake life on Social that is vastly different from your actual experience. 

However - when it comes to you throwing yourself into something NEW, that you have not ever done before I would never call however you end up acting or performing FAKE but rather TAKING A BRAVE LEAP.  

A brave leap of believing in your ability to learn and figure things out despite NOT having any evidence for your ability to DO THIS THING! 
Now - that is bold.

Speaking in front of 2000 people without having any comparable experience from your PAST to draw upon.
Becoming an entrepreneur when you have been an employee all your life. 
Living into the the identity of being a piano player without ever having touched the instrument before. 

Everything radically NEW in your life starts from a choice that is based on nothing else then BELIEVING.
No evidence to back that up. 

Will that maybe feel fake and inauthentic to yourself or people around you in the beginning? FOR SURE. 
But is it a sign that you are doing something morally despicable? NO.
A sign for you to go back to the old known YOU and stop the UNFOLDING? NO!!!

In this weeks episode I will walk you through the discomfort of braking the mold of what you though was YOU!
SO - yes! You can fake it till you make it - in fact I think you SHOULD! 
Just … that I would not call this faking - but rather being f*** courageous 

What you will learn in this episode:
- Why showing up authentically is no moral obligation and will potentially keep you stuck 
- the difference between pretending and learning to embody something new 
- How defining WHO YOU ARE based on your past experiences will limit your future options dramatically 
- Why I think you will never reach your potential (and that´s a good thing!)
