where does fake it til you make it come from
Fake it till you make it The phrase "fake it till you make it" is similar in meaning to the idiom "act as if", and is also similar to Aristotle's idea that to be virtuous, one must act as a virtuous person would act.
Lucky Strike Lucky Strike brand was introduced in 1871 by the company R.A. Patterson in the USA as chewing tobacco. The founder of Luckies was inspired by the era's rush for gold searching. Only some of the gold diggers (about four out of 1000) were fortunate enough to find gold and this was often referred to as a lucky strike. By choosing this expression as the product's name, it meant consumers who were choosing the brand were lucky, as they were choosing a top-quality blend. Lucky Strike was a brand of chewing tobacco, and by the early 1900s, it had evolved into a cigarette.
