start pretending


every sunday, i try to wake up early to catch bo sanchez' talk over abc5 (it starts at around 6am, i think.. but i never catch the start since i'm usually way too sleepy to wake up at that time).

yesterday's topic was about how to become the person you want to be (or something like that). bo said that if you want to be a loving person, for example, then you have to act as if you already were. that is, you'll pretend to be the kind of person you want to be.

he goes on to say that if you do this, pretty soon, you will no longer have to pretend. your mind/body would have gotten used to "pretending" so that you will actually be a loving person. (did you actually understand what i wrote? sheesh. bo said it a lot better than i did.. sorry)

needless to say, his talk made me think through a lot of stuff in my head. not all of which are good (my head contains mostly er.. "un-good" stuff, hahaha)

so i'm embarking on a new project, starting today. i just don't know if i'd be able to pull it off.. but hey, it's worth a try. anything would be worth it, if i could just be successful at this.. how i wish i were her.. :(
