Fake it til you make it?

[Adams0001]

In fact that person will serve as my motivator, because I will use his success as my motivation, and it will serve as an encouragement for me to work more harder in order to get to where the person is today. Beside what is the Essence of feeling jealous about what someone has, after knowing that he must have made some sacrifices and putting in some efforts, which you could also do in other to be in a position that is far better than his.

I think it's good to fake your current position or current struggled with the people. What's your future goals and what would you are going to achieve try to hide every details, untill you can't get it. Its not bad approach. In our society we experienced that if any individual discuss his plan openly with others, few genuinely feel happy while majority reacts jealous or try create hurdles in your road of success. unfortunately helping hands are few, while those who bring you down are many. your moral are more. Keep your struggle secrets, allow you to be focused, you can grow quietly or peacefully. Once you reach your goal, then your success speak louder than the explanation you could give. Feeling happy while you see other people making progress. It's shows how much you have beautiful and positive mindset.

Is very good to be hiding what you're chasing because not everyone need to know your target or plan you need to be keeping things secret so that know one will know what you are doing after you succeeded people will see without even opening mouth to tell them what you are doing. If you are succeeding and you are saying it out some will be happy for you but not all of them will be happy with what you gain some will definitely be jealous and try to bring you down so is very important to know who of people that will no your secret, just make them alway think about what you're doing. Is very important to make some of your work fake so they won't know your actual thing you're into.  Sometimes people think by telling others what you are doing is the best because they said some think you are doing illegal things that why you hide what you are doing to make money.

Imo faking it is pointless and stressful long term. People who are really doing well usually don’t care about your financial status anyway. I prefer being neutral and honest without oversharing. Using successful people as motivation is healthier than trying to impress them. Everyone’s timeline is different.

yeah it's only broke people that fake to be rich while their dieing in poverty, when people fake things what do they really want to achieve, it just a very poor mentality to fake it till you make, people won't trust you ever, once they find out that what you claim to be ,is not who you are.

It's better you, have a rich model and try to do what's his doing in your little way, till you achieve it, instead of deceiving yourself by faking what you don't have just to impress your gullible fellowers. It's happens among celebrities, they post things they don't have just to maintain their celebrity status.  This act will result to many negative things, one can start stealing just to meet up their fake lifestyle.

It's truly strange to see people pretending to be rich to show off and gain validation. Typically, such people never become rich because they only seek recognition from others, not their own.

I believe modeling rich people and associating with them can be quite influential in improving our quality of life and relationships, leading us to achieve wealth or even become rich, as motivation to do the same. There are many things we can do, but the most important thing is to never hide our true social status.

When I come across people that are better than me financially or economically, I try not to compare myself with them.Do you know why? Because people have different journey in life, so making it in life doesn't come the same time with everyone, instead of discouraging myself, I see their success as motivation to work hard.
One thing I love myself is that, I can never fake my financial situation to impress other people. I take inspiration from people that are doing better than me, because their story remains me that success is  possible and with hard work I can reach that level some day.

We don't have to fake been rich to impress other rich people because someday the truth about your real self would be reveal. It's better been original than pretending to be what you're re not. What I have understood about rich folks is that they hate lies and fake people around them. Just be your original self, someone who would help you will not stress you. Fake style is stressful and expensive and you won't have peace of mind.

[JoyMarsha]

Fake it till you make it is the wrong narrative any individual could think of, just to feel among or being recognized by others that they are worth doing, while they are not. I wonder to what end will such a person living a life of faking everything to people around them stop.

Those that fake their life don't know how expensive and stressful it is to be maintaining such a lifestyle all over, leaving your own type of lifestyle aside, not to show any sign of weakness or financial lapses

I agree 100%. I've seen people around me doing that, pretending to be richer than they are, is not only stressful but also financially dangerous. Sometimes people end up spending money they don't have just to maintain an expensive lifestyle, which can lead to debt or poor financial decisions.
In reality, many successful people are actually simple in the way they live, and they value honesty more than appearances. Being genuine also attracts the right kind of people those who respect you for who you are, not for the image you project.I think it's much healthier to focus on improving our situation little by little instead of trying to look successful overnight. Progress may be slow, but it's real and sustainable. In the long run, authenticity and discipline matter more than pretending to be something we're not.

Things won't always work out for some people the same way if worked for those around them, you shouldn't compare yourself with other people, live your own life and believe that there is only one copy of yourself, because different, there is no point in trying to fake a life, because of what ?

There are many people who have faked almost everything and things still never get better for them, some people are meant to find their own purpose in life but they wasted their lives faking what they don't have thinking because someone they knew got lucky this way it will also work for them.

[Gentle_Soul]

There are people who fake their life so that people won't know or think they are suffering some also has miss opportunity from who would have be of help to them it is good to be sincere and not to feel proud.
I get motivated with what people are doing, i also get encourage through them that are independent.
There are few who fake it and later make it in life but no matter how bad it is let's always appear neat.

Faking it is actually not the problem the problem is maintaining the fake life because me I feel like fake life is more expensive when you have made it those things you fake are done at ease without stress and pressure but when you are faking the lifestyle the pressure and stress of faking it is way too bad and something else. People should be sure not to fake away there helper from there life or create a wrong impression from the fake life. Whatever level you are ensure to maintain a stand and appreciate what you can offer and aim at
making a difference and making it is on the way.
Faking it is not the only option to making it yes you have to package your self and make yourself always look presentable at all times but don't overdo more than your capacity.

It is better to live as it is and be open without any pretense just because you want to be considered or whatever it is that becomes the goal, we must be honest with our true condition so that people also judge that we are honest people, but to attract others of course we must increase our enthusiasm and interest in development or progress to live better,, it will affect people's assessment of us because we have positive vibes and usually richer people also really like people who are open and want to progress, we don't need to pretend unless it is to your enemies, you have to hide yourself.

I don't have a problem with you faking it and trying to make people see you like you have made it. As long as you are putting in the effort behind the scene and engaging in economic activities that will aid you to later making it in life. But if you truly know that you don't have anything that you are hoping on that will later help you to make it in life, you better not fake anything. Open up and ask for help from those your friends that are doing better than you.

You're right about that, I would rather ask for help than to fake. what is that thing that I'm even faking? for me I prefer being honest to people because if you're sincere in whatever thing you're doing you can easily get help from people but those that chose to disguise or fake always find it hard to get help from people because once they find out that you're faking they will no longer help you due to the fact that you're not honest from the onset so for me I like being honest in all my dealings and it has been helping me.

Exactly, I don't live fake life, I always cut my coat according to my size. It impossible for you to be like others, and there is no way other will also be like. Let go of comparison and focus on building your life. Everyone is unique in their own ways and what works for others might not work for you. You don't have to impress anyone by living a fake life, just be yourself, and work very hard, because you don't really know who your destiny helper may be. Living a fake life can easily tarnished someone's image or reputation, and that is actually the worst part. I know that truth is bitter and difficult to understand, but it is actually the right thing to do.

That is the most important thing though, there is gain doing fake life, although many people choose to do that we are seeing them anytime, but at the end they up being broke and they we actually know the real them. It’s not a good advice faking it online or even offline, even your helpers won’t come near you, because they will feel like you have arrive. Anyone who wish to help won’t boarder approaching you, just because you are showing up that you have the money.
