Acting As If: The Power of Pretense

The problem is this: How are you supposed to manifest a new life if you’re told that pretending to be someone else makes you dishonest? Acting as if you’re already the person you want to become isn’t lying—it’s creation. It’s manifestation.

They call it a false front.
They label it “putting on airs.”
But isn’t this how all great transformations begin?
