Tips and AdviceWhy All Actors Should "Fake it 'Til They Make It"

Why All Actors Should “Fake it ‘Til They Make It”

Date:

Typically “fake it ’til you make it” is all about pretending to be something that you’re not.

But, in acting it is less about how you look and more about following the behaviors of successful actors.

The Harvard Business Review explained in any business situation that you should copy the behaviors of successful people you know because it can help you in the long run.

People who use this strategy concentrate their efforts first on reproducing the behavior they have observed, even if they don’t fully understand it. Then with practice, like Lewis, they try “to get inside the brain of another person.” In their minds, they’re not being inauthentic — they’re simply evolving so they can get the job done. After a while, they find they have acted their way into a new way of thinking.

Copying successful people will help you become a better actor. We have pointed out several things all successful actors do in the past. Overall, it is important to copy successful people because you can use their experiences and habits to make you a better actor.
