Fake it until you make it.

Fake it until you make it.

I’m sure you have heard this term. “Fake it until you make it” doesn’t ask that you should stuff your feelings. It simply says that you need to acknowledge them and move forward anyway. Everyday isn’t going to be perfect in terms of your mood, your health, your relationships and or your job. Things happen that aren’t our ideal pictures. People will act in ways that may surprise or disappoint. People you care about will get sick and pass away.  Your pain is real and you should allow yourself time and gentleness to work through it. While that is happening, when you are not feeling your best self, put on your best suit, put on some makeup, put a smile on your face and keep on going.  It may help to look for the positive in the situation. In no time you'll be feeling great again!
