Faking Confidence
Faking confidence is easy. You stand up straight, pull your shoulders back, look them in the eye… and people think you know what you’re doing.
What’s hard is refinement - living up to your good tastes. Sure it sucks, knowing what excellence looks like and having your clumsy fingers mess it up. That’s fine.
While you’re trucking away though:
Stand up straight. Pull your shoulders back. And remember look people in the eye.
