During the past few weeks, I have often been reminded of an advice that has helped me a great deal when I was a teenager: \u201cFake it till you make it.\u201d As a kid, I was very shy. And by that, I mean VERY shy, not just a bit. After coming across this advice of “faking it”, I started acting as if I wasn`t shy. And after a while, I really wasn`t so shy anymore.<\/p>

This principle can be helpful in a lot of situations. Some people even claim it can make us rich.<\/p>

Something that I find helpful in order to put this principle into practice, is to dress like I want to be.<\/p>

Say, we would like to be more easy-going and relaxed. Let`s picture an imaginary person who has these attributes:\u00a0 What is he or she wearing? What is his or her signature style? Then we go ahead and dress that way.<\/p>

This makes it so much easier for us to act accordingly.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

What counts is NOT what OTHERS may perceive as attire for a relaxed and easy-going person, but what YOU think such a person would wear.<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

As well we can think of an existing role model who we think already has that attribute that we would like to have – for example, relaxed and easy-going. It might be a real person, or it might be fictional, like a character in a TV-Show. Whenever we want to act relaxed and easy-going, we just think of our role model.<\/p>

And back to the fashion aspect: Researchers have shown that \u201cclothes can have profound and systematic psychological and behavioral consequences for their wearers\u201d (http:\/\/www.utstat.utoronto.ca\/reid\/sta2201s\/2012\/labcoatarticle.pdf<\/a>).\u00a0If you wear an outfit that you think your role model would wear too, this will actually make his or her qualities rub off on you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\u201cWhen we put on an item of clothing it is common for the wearer to adopt the characteristics associated with that garment\u201d, says Dr. Karen Pine, professor of psychology at the University of Hertfordshire and fashion psychologist. \u201cA lot of clothing has symbolic meaning for us, (…) so when we put it on we prime the brain to behave in ways consistent with that meaning.”<\/p>

How would you like to be? Go check your wardrobe, and dress and act as if you had that quality already.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In den letzten Wochen habe ich immer wieder an einen Spruch gedacht, der mir als Teenager einmal sehr geholfen hat: \u201cFake it till you make it.\u201d (- Tu so als ob\u2026) Als Kind war ich sehr sch\u00fcchtern. Und ich meine wirklich sehr, nicht nur ein bisschen. Als ich den Rat, so zu tun als ob, geh\u00f6rt habe, habe ich begonnen, mich so zu verhalten, als w\u00e4re ich nicht sch\u00fcchtern. Und nach einer Weile war ich nicht mehr so sch\u00fcchtern.<\/p>

Dieses Prinzip, so zu tun als ob, kann in vielen Situationen hilfreich sein. Manche behaupten sogar, es kann Leute reich machen.<\/p>

Um diesen Rat umzusetzen finde ich es sehr hilfreich, mich so zu kleiden, wie ich sein will.<\/p>

Sagen wir mal, du willst l\u00e4ssiger und entspannter sein. Stell dir eine Person vor, die diese Eigenschaften hat \u2013 was hat sie an? Was macht ihren Style aus? Und dann zieh dich auch mal so an.<\/p>

Das macht es einfacher, sich auch so zu verhalten.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Was z\u00e4hlt, ist NICHT was ANDERE als eine Garderobe f\u00fcr eine l\u00e4ssige, entspannte Person auffassen k\u00f6nnten. Sondern was DU dir vorstellst, was so eine Person tr\u00e4gt.<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Du kannst dir ein tats\u00e4chliches Vorbild nehmen, das du als l\u00e4ssig und entspannt wahrnimmst. Das k\u00f6nnte eine reale Person sein, oder eine fiktive Person, zum Beispiel jemand aus einer TV- Serie. Wenn du dich l\u00e4ssig und entspannt verhalten willst, dann denk an dein Vorbild.<\/p>

Und zur\u00fcck zum Aspekt der Mode: Wissenschaftler haben gezeigt, dass \u201eKleider tiefgreifende und vorhersehbare Auswirkungen auf Psyche und Verhalten der Tr\u00e4ger haben k\u00f6nnen\u201c ( http:\/\/www.utstat.utoronto.ca\/reid\/sta2201s\/2012\/labcoatarticle.pdf<\/a>). Wenn du ein Outfit tr\u00e4gst, von dem du denkst, dass es auch dein Vorbild tragen w\u00fcrde, dann werden dessen Eigenschaften auf dich abf\u00e4rben.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cWenn wir ein Kleidungsst\u00fcck anziehen, dann nehmen wir \u00fcblicherweise die Eigenschaften an, die wir mit diesem Kleidungsst\u00fcck verbinden\u201c, sagt Dr. Karen Pine, Professorin f\u00fcr Psychologie an der University of Hertfordshire und Modepsychologin. \u201eViele Kleider haben eine symbolische Bedeutung f\u00fcr uns. Wenn wir sie anziehen, dann sch\u00e4rfen wir unser Gehirn daf\u00fcr, uns entsprechend dieser Bedeutung zu verhalten.\u201c<\/p>

Wie w\u00fcrdest du gern sein? Schau in deinen Kleiderschrank und zieh dich so an und tu so, als h\u00e4ttest du diese Eigenschaft bereits.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
