Acting "As If " Works

"I pretended to be somebody I wanted to be and I finally became that person. Or he became me. Or we met at some point.” 
Archie Leach in Becoming Cary Grant

 Cary Grant

Acting as if you were brave works.

Acting as if you weren't shy works.

Acting as if you were kind works.
Acting as if you were happy works.
Acting as if you were loving works.
Acting as if you were your best self works.

Well, same things as "Fake it 'Till You Make It."

Visualize where you will be and - zing - it happens.

I think this last one is from What Color is Your Parachute -- my biggest take-away from reading that book at age 18.

Well, how ever he did it - I am eternally grateful he was able to accomplish the task. The world would be a far more dull place without Cary Grant movies.
