"Fake it till you make it" (or "Fake it until you make it") is an English aphorism which suggests that by imitating confidence, competence, and an optimistic mindset, a person can realize those qualities in their real life and achieve the results they seek. The phrase is first attested some time before 1973. The earliest reference to a similar phrase occurs in the Simon & Garfunkel song "Fakin' It", released in 1968 as a single and also on their Bookends album. There, Simon sings, "And I know I'm fakin' it, I'm not really makin' it." — Rhonda Byrne, The Secret (2006)
