So I have this theory that most people disagree with, and I don’t expect anything less at the end of this post. Most people like to manifest things. I do too. And I’m just talking about declaring things with your mouth and believing them to happen in your life or however you want.
I also believe that manifesting also happens in your mind. You can’t say A and think B and then expect A to happen. Most times, we are exactly what we think, and what we think even happens to us faster than what we say.
So the normal human nature is to normally not say what they think, especially in bad situations. For example, if they think someone is going to die, they’ll just harbor the thought and then say positive things, which I believe is good. But then, the part we normally forget is that our actions are fueled by what we think.
Let me give more flesh to this bone. So you can say all the good things about a situation, but if you think otherwise, it’ll just affect your faith or actions towards that situation. And then, you’ll begin to act like it’s over or you’ve lost even if you said that you’ll win.
Now that I’ve made my point clear, let’s move to my theory. I believe "fake it till you make it" is a type of manifestation. And this basically means whatever life people want to live, they act it. Or whatever they want to have in life, they act like they have.
This is very clear mostly in the lives of influencers. They call it branding. They normally act and behave how they want to be addressed. So an influencer may not necessarily be rich, but you’ll see him or her driving expensive cars just to attract rich brands.
But the problem is most people tend to end up living a totally fake life. A life that’s far from who they are. A life full of lies. A life that brings them nothing but sorrows and pain. And at the end, they always have a mask on. This isn’t fake it till you make it. This is just totally living a fake life.
But as I said already, I strongly believe if you want something in life, you can fake it till you make it because it’s a type of manifestation. You can begin to behave like a rich man even when you’re not rich while working your way to become rich. You can give brilliant speeches at your family meetings as a great public speaker while working your way to becoming one.
But in all these, the most important thing is that you are happy and you’re not compromising anything in your life for anything, and you’re certainly not trying to seek any form of validation.
