- So many people feel like they have to “fake it till they make it” in business …
But let me tell you something:
There’s a fine line between having blind faith and confidence in your abilities and “posturing” to other people like you’re bigger than you actually are.

"Don't act like you've made it, talk about the journey of trying to make it"
I'm trying!! :-)
*Never* act like till you *Made* it ❤ Always trying
that's exactly what i am doing with my channel! wow
Never act small
@@legendarycreatormindsetKeep going❤🔥
"Fake it till you make it" was brought to me during a work lecture and kept hearing it a lot at work. So I tried it. I found out "what a failure it was". It caused a massive overload of stress and anxiety that increased, trying to fulfill a lie! I was lying to myself and making the situation worse. Then I realised what a rotten idea! Reality was best! "So your in a Crap situation, deal with it the best you can was better"!
This is Gary’s way of calling out the people who have “entrepreneur” in their instagram bio lmao
Biaheza Just checked out your channel bro surprised you don’t have more subs, keep it up!
Hahhaa
Zlipster Royals it’s a right hook!
I know right! And I’m like what business do u have?
"We now live in a world where transparency has won. Speak the truth. Do the right thing. Kindness is cool. Truth is cool. Don't act like you've made it, talk about the journey of trying to make it."
It's not the destiny it's the journey that's your reward
Me, personally I believe in "fake it until you make it" but not in the way you've described in the video Gary. I never portray myself to friends for the vanity that I've made it.
For me, I faked it when I approached clients I wanted to work when I was first making the transition into freelance work. I knew I could deliver however I wasn't able to demonstrate with previous work. I talked my way into winning the job, I then delivered on what I promised. Now I have examples of work to evidence what I'm telling them I'm going to do. I faked it, then I made it.
Much love Gary, keep inspiring!
Every time you post something I feel so inspired to keep going. I am naturally impatient and prone to "pretend" I'm someone I'm not when my real story is way more interesting. I just know I can succeed, I just have to have patience and let my true (and kinda weird) self be out there, even if it feels ridiculous at first. It took me a year an a half of watching your videos before I actually made the jump and posted my first real youtube video. In it, I was being myself and the fear I felt before hitting the upload button was real. Because of your content and sheer motivation, I just did it, and I've posted twice a week (along with working full time) since then. I feel a bit of momentum starting with my channel, and I'm forever grateful to your comments and authenticity. Thanks for being the push to get me started. I've wanted to be a fashion designer since I was in elementary school, and now, I'm 30 and finally determined to consistently chase my goal, no matter what noise around me tells me not to. I'm not faking any more.
"I know you bought your fans, your engagement blows" - you see this all over Instagram every day. 20,000 followers, and only 15 likes on every picture (5 of which are their family). They're not fooling anyone. Love this :)
So trueeee. Just be real be you you're greater than you realize
"Don't act like you've made it, talk about the journey of trying to make it". THIS IS DEEP
Yes Truth! Eventually people will find out who you really are. Be real
#garyvee you are the truth. I love the way you make me question the ways and the teachings about how I was brought up. You're not a salesman. You're a realist and I'm a better man ever listening to you. Thank you
“There’s a reason that people who are authentic and actually doing *are winning* because everybody else is trying to figure out the shortcut” 🤯
I am accomplished poet, and I don't look the part cause I don't got time to fake it until I made it. I made it the moment I became a master poet. There is alot of fake writers on RUclips, they try to look like they are real successful master writers and only giving prompts but their work is not original and they don't teach HOW to do it, like I do. My work is proof that I ain't taking it. 😊
Being *real* and *vulnerable* WINS the GAME.🔥🔥🔥
Fake it till you make it is bad advice cuz it means you’re fake when you make it.
Good point, you're lying to yourself when you do this and many people don't realise how destructive it actually is. They can achieve whatever they set out to achieve and then feel suicidal because they live a lie.
No it means you've never did... just pretending to have made it.
Real shit
That's exactly right. Only trying to foll yourself..
Although sadly the fakery has become more subtle. The tuxedo, big house, and flash car has been replaced by someone giving advice online in their Dressing gown, burping, farting, and swearing claiming to be authentic.
Gary, your motivation is priceless! I’m working to apply your strategies to my own personal brand as an athlete on my RUclips Blog/Channel and it’s starting to pay! Thanks for the good reminders of patience and hard work, I’ll keep my nose down and grow this channel and my brand! 🙌🏼
Authenticity always WINS in the long run !
If only I'd realize this sooner. Thanks Gar Vee for what you do to community.
"Talk about the journey to making it" that's what I do. I couldn't fake it even if I wanted to. Faking it takes even more effort, then just staying transparent.
fake it to you make it just means practice to you become it
I've finally started listening to Gary and putting myself out there. No, I am not quitting my day job quite yet, but I'm getting started on THE PROCESS
Thanks Gary V you are absolutely an amazing human being keep it up. Fake it till you make it is terrible advice because you are supposed to keep it real with yourself and others at all times. The more honest you are with yourself the more you will grow The more honest you are with yourself the more you will grow.
Realise who you are and what your inclinations are, and then follow them. No need to be anyone else, no need to be like that guy / that girl. It's always obvious. Be yourself, accept yourself, and then work on improving yourself. This is the best recipe for growth and lasting change.
45 views and 91 likes, RUclips needs patch notes. Gary you are seriously the greatest wisest speaker in the world. Thank you for what you've done
#WhenTheValueIsUnreal
This really is the truth. I’ve just been overwhelmed with fake accounts constantly following me and then the unfollow me. I know that eventually they’ll be exposed so I don’t give a shit about them anymore. I just talk to the ones who speak to me.
Actually the journey is most important, and when you do that shift you don't feel so bad when things does not go your way🌸
YES! Thank you. Just confirmed and validated all my thoughts. FUCK this mindset, fake it till you make it BS. -- However GARY, I think you should make a follow up video about WHAT NOT to tell people. Like exactly how much money you have in your bank account; ie I think companies could take advantage of this because they will be able make "low ball" offers depending on how desperately you need the money. Or like when Logan Paul filmed the corpse in the Japanese suicide forest and lost so much credibility. You can definitely be TOO REAL
I'm like you Gary, I love the journey! I want people to see the journey, thank you for all the advice and encouragement! Hired a videographer this year and I'm well on my way!
I’m sure it will! Thanks I appreciate it
I always heard the phrase "fake it in order to make it" but I think that philosophy doesn't work anymore if it ever did. I think that Gary is right and being authentic will lead to a happier life.
This is simply amazing. I have recently moved to a new country so I do not have a lot of friends. I have thought about faking it till I make it but this has opened my eyes as I started caring about what other people thought of me so I was thinking I should fake some shit and get clout so people would actually like me and stuff. Tbh this has opened my eyes and I will definitely take this advice to heart.
I would personally like to say THANK YOU. I’m an 18 year old professional keynote speaker and I’m truly grateful for being able to watch your videos. That’s something we tend to
Take for granted and that is why seeing A - Class people like you KEEP GOING is so inspiring. On my Channel I work my hardest to motivate as hard as I can. THANK YOU. 🙏🏿🌎💯 I will always be an advocate for HARD WORK and that is why I must stay focused and trust the process. #staytuned
Your words hit home, my channel is based on this. KEEPING IT REAL, now and tomorrow and forever.
Some people don’t realize how dope the journey and how being transparent makes it one less thing to worry about
"If you want muscles, you can't read about doing push-ups and expect to have gains" ... I fucking love that!! That's dope! Thank you Gary Vee!!
Gotta love Gary’s office at 3:50. This dude is amazing!
My many Gary Vee!! You inspired me to start my own RUclips channel!!! I’m only 22 and have my own business and I’m on my 7th residential house flip this year!!
Garyyyyyyyyyyy....you are the best and I got answer to all negative comments i get
GARY VEE is the man! His mindset n tips have helped me hit 5 figures a day 🔥 thanks so much!
You're my inspiration brother! Thank you for giving me the air cover to chase my passion, would never have started my channel with you or been able to quiet those voices of doubt inside! Much love Gary
Before I watch, just want to say Thank you Gary V.!
Garys right. No need to fake it, just provide value to people. The money you earn is a direct correlation of how many people you helped. 🤝
Sam Charles Yea, good mentor to follow
You really have to speak the truth ! I talked a lot about struggling to make daily videos a while back !
Weird self promo, but ok
Shut the fuck up scam artist! This guy is faking it. How to make millions fast. How to make 1000$ a day. Get the fuck out don't fake it. You think people are dumb but no they aren't we can clearly see your evil intentions. The comments on your videos are bought. They are the same comments on Gary's videos
Respect, talk about the journey brotha love the process.
In my former profession, this behavior was rampant. I’m glad to be in a place where I can enjoy the journey.
This really resonated with me. This reminded me of a video put out by the team at donut media not super long ago on the history of Pagani. The video is actually really good but that’s beside the point. Basically the guy who started it built a full-fledged race car to damn near perfect spec with exactly zero professional experience and from totally scratch in his garage and when he went to Renault for a motor cause he didn’t have the cash to get one and their tech and engineers looked at and said holy shit this is bad ass they found him a driver, gave him sponsor ship for the motors and other stuff. Fast forward a good bit of time the first zones project is coming along and he yet again needs a motor. He goes back to the same guy he went to for the race motors who got him in with Mercedes to build v12’s for his cars and who still build the motors for them today. There was no faking it that this dude had shear and raw talent and was going some where weather others wanted him to or not. I have some really crazy ass ideas in my head that I am going to test and while i talk about them constantly to people and drive some people a lil nuts with it, i feel like I some of him in me. So I hope to someday meet u in person and do some experimental car taking on some shit that will turn the damn industry on its head.
You’ve got to project where you want to be and project who you want to be or you’ll never be that person. Make the change but make it real if not it will be fake.

That should be the new saying
*I'm gonna have to send this to my friend who rents luxury cars and wears a fake Rolex to lure people into his multi level marketing organization.*
Yeah..your friend needs to start being more comfortable in their own skin. Stop trying to impress other people
Is your friend tai Lopez by any chance
Jay I think you are right!
i get the point here why it can be real bad advice, but for me the message of faking it till you make it means to adapt the mindset of a Person that achieved your Goal already, in order to understand how to get there. While you're adapting new mindset points you're fake in some kind of way, but that's necessary to get where you want and to become who you want, bc your goals often have nothing in common with your present personality. For me it works :)
Customers don’t care what you know, they just want to know that you care.
Yes this! My. Channel doesn't have the numbers yet but quality content it does have!
Appreciate any support coming my way. Makes a huge difference. I will keep grinding as ever!!
Love the video and shared it with my group.
I love that, "talk about the journey of trying."
🔥🔥🔥(Every time i watch this ad)
Get ready ti go in a roller coster that will make you uncomfortable
Constantly dropping quality advice! 👍
Git'er Dun! Gary V 💪
Cream always rises to the top! Keep your grind on and ignore the naysayers!
The truth always comes out
And we are blessed for it as a species
3:29 The view looks like something from a movie. You know you have made it and conquered it all when you are sitting in an office overlooking beautiful New York City!
I think is good when you are a person with low self esteem that has the potential to do something and his/her psychology holds him/her back .Although we should always have limits in our actions
Truth! Thank you Gary!
I was studying and follow a very difficult education with 3 seperate sections. Marketing, Standbuilding and Shoppingwindow-decoration (designing, creating, presenting, administering.)
When we were told to make 100 designs, for tomorrow, many of us groaned angrily and started sketching. I worked all night and came back to the teacher exhausted with a pack of paper.
"I have 54 designs.." I said in all honesty. "I put time and work in..I thought of every design, they're well-made, but there are 54."
He answered; 'You know what you need to do then. Make another 46. You are now behind on your classmates.."
He checked the rest of the class, who all claimed there were 100, but none were numbered and some quickly flicked through them.
Turns out they had copied each others work and designs from the internet. Plus, some were made close together and therefore looked like two, but were in fact one (like a flower and a petal.)
So, I was being punished for working properly and had to do extra work that weekend, and the teacher didn't even look at the sketches when I was finished.
I was being taught that quantity was more important than quality. And that paying the man at the copymachine to horizontally mirror the images (to get an extra 10 "new" sketches in) was fine.
People said; 'I worked all weekend" and instead, paid the wood-cutter to build their presentation-table. People said; 'I gathered a stack of pictures' and instead, had paid their sister to do it for them.
But since the teachers didn't care, nobody was caught and everyone knew they were faking it, except for me.
I was brought up with honesty and hard work being important values. So I handmade everything I was told to handmake. And I sketched everything with effort and time, not for quantity.
Luckily I can assure you that I do not live by these things now. I put lots of effort and time in my work and it is greatly appreciated. All attention to detail is perfect and nothing is wonky or 'quickfixed' or faked.
And théy didn't learn a thing from their work. Since they didn't make it themselves. I still remember the skills I gained through the work and I can use those skills for myself and my work now.
🔥 Video Gary! Will always respect your advice man. Had the most profitable week in business after reading your book crushing it! 👊🏻
Brilliant! I hope those that need to hear this DO! 👏
"You're only fooling other losers"
yeah
This guys words resonate with me everyday of my life!
Love ya! Gary!
Thats what i'm doing boss 🔥🔥Never have i ever felt this unstoppable.. 👍
Your hard earned successful business and wealth will teach you more experience than any fake it or make it marketer will ever learn. Start educating your followers, clients, students with the real experience you have right now and learned. Success is a byproduct of many failures. If you're faking it you're still failing...
Real talk. 👍🏻
Such good advice. I want to document my journey of becoming a software engineer and starting making instagram highlights. I want to show my homework and school curriculum but I don’t want to get in trouble with the TOS lol
Good point with how it only fools other losers. It’s just a bunch of losers pretending to be cooler than the other guy pretending to be cool. They put all their money and thought into looking the part. You have to take that money and all your time and actually becoming that person that you’re pretending to be. Which ironically means doing pretty much the opposite.
Love the no bullshit approach!
Lots of love brother. Aussie vlogger here.
Really appreciate this advice Gary ❤️
Realness always wins
Your videos are inspirational
I love them

Faking it is playing yourself for a fool!
This is a real thing - but this generate was fed the idea "fake it til you make it".... its just easier to fake it now because people assume that social media is real.
@garyvee -Couldnt agree,I have seen lot of people applying the same fake it till you make it strategy and causing lot of damage without even realising it.Such people misleads more people.Another thing is that people do it because coz they feel that is only to way to get but its not.Very rare people knows the importance of being themselves.
So happy Gary called this out. Fake it til you make it? Now you're exposed, and only tricking other losers. Boom 😂👊
I love Gary found a way to monetize saying common sense keep getting money Gary keep getting money
**Listen to Gary until you feel like doing, then do, then make it!
✔✔✔✔✔
@Sam Charles Exactly! Once you get that feeling of "yeah you're right, I can do it" then capitalize on that feeling and do it!
Lovely video Gary
You are awesome thank you so much for inspiring me
🔥🔥Gary, you're the best motivator in the F**ck!ng world! Thank you for the great and value video 🔥🔥
A man of his own words
