Act Like A Rock Star, People Will Think You Are One

I’m going to do something REALLY interesting for you today. I’m going to change the entire way you’ve been playing the blog game, and I’m going to do it by giving you just one simple statement:
“If you act like you’re a big deal, people will think you are one.”
See, this is one of the most awesome statements you’ll ever come across. And this is a great way to get a fire built under your blog, by acting like you’re a big deal. See, here’s the really awesome thing. You don’t have to be well known to convince people you’re famous.
Want proof? That’s easy to provide. The most watched show in the United States for the last five years is American Idol. In fact, about twenty nine million people watched the show last week. Sounds great, right? Sure it does…until you remember two very important facts.
1. There are over three hundred fifty million people in the United States.
2. There are over six billion people on the face of the earth.
Ninety percent of America didn’t watch American Idol last week. And on the world scale, a whopping 99.995 percent of the planet had something better to do.
You see how easy it is to be famous? On the grander scale, almost no one’s heard of American Idol, and if they have, only vaguely. You can take advantage of this same principle–if you act like you’re famous people will THINK you are. After all, who would act like they were famous if they weren’t?
