WEEK THIRTY-NINE:
ACT AS IF
"Act as if! Act as if you're a wealthy man, rich already, and then you'll surely become rich. Act as if you have unmatched confidence and then people will surely have confidence in you. Act as if you have unmatched experience and then people will follow your advice. And act as if you are already a tremendous success, and as sure as I stand here today
- you will become successful."
- Dale Carnegie
For most people, title comes before function. Before they can lead, they must wait to be appointed managers. But in realiy, function comes before title. Noone is promoted to management without showing leadership potential.
The same goes for anything else in life. Before you can get Mr\Mrs Right, you must first become Mrs\Mr Right. Don't dress for where you are in life, but dress for where you're going. Take initiative and act as if you already are the person you are striving to be.
