During the first months on my first job I was having a casual discussion with my manager. I told him what my plans - career wise - were and asked him for advice as I felt under qualified to follow through.
He replied without hesitation: sometimes you have to fake it 'till you make it.
I didn't had the courage to follow his advice for more then 5 years. Now I am.
Meanwhile he followed his own advice and is now the CEO of a pretty cool startup. Back then I was pretty sure he'd be a terrible "leader". He proved me wrong again.
