Will You Make It If You Fake It?
We've all heard the ancient secret advice to fake it until you make it. I first heard it about thirty years ago in a twelve-step meeting. I remember then thinking it was brilliant. Now, not so much.

In this Coffee Break, Franklin Taggart tells a story of a particular FITYMI moment that lives on in his short list of public embarrassments almost thirty years after it happened. Also in the chat: ** Courage first ** Confidence later ** commitment, learning, and mastering in between #creativity #creativeprocess #well-meaningbadadvice
