25. faking it until making it

It was suggested by a few different people that I write about three different topics today; psychics, greed and a new adventure I could be embarking on. But after much thought I have decided to write about determination, which pretty much relates to all three.

People often mistake determination for greed, forward planning could be seen as being determined and after all, my new adventure would never have been possible with determination.

I had someone say to me today ‘things just work out for you’ and in some part that’s true.. but for the  most part they work out  because when I apply myself to something I really want, I do it whole heartedly.

Once you figure out you want something, if you don’t give it absolutely everything you have, you probably don’t want it bad enough.  When someone is determined to get something, be something or mean something you can see it their face, literally seeping from their pores.

But can you fake it until making it with determination? I know you can with confidence... but what would fake determination look like? If its not genuine is it real?... something to think about.

I think if you tried faking determination you would only be cheating yourself- you would be denying yourself of a chance to find something you don’t have to pretend you want, because you actually really do.

Go out and be determined to get something you want, if you cant think of anything just fake it and let me know how it feels
