Isn't the quote "fake it till you make it?"
12-07-2016 08:22 PM
I am what I am, and who I am, and don't pretend to be anything, or anyway else

If this refers to crafting, I'm not even good at faking it. A glue gun signals catastrophe in my hands.

There is quite a difference between the two sentences. Faking till you make it might indicate a person is initially insecure and trying to show a brave front until he/she gains insight or experience.
Faking it TO make it, to me, indicates a person is purposely lying about their qualifications in order to pull the wool over proverbial eyes and it's not the original adage.

It doesn't seem like a good life plan.

@JBKO: My understanding of the phrase is quite different:: Fake it 'till you make it. and yes, it's sometimes a good choice! Think Diamonique, for example.

LOL QueenDiva! Diamonique!
I think you're right RoughDraft. There is a fine between being confident/assertive and being fake though. I am always trying to detect that in people.
