The "As" and the "Like" _Shaping the mindset.
<p>The "As" and "like" ..... in English Language they carry the same meaning but in a realistic concept, they function differently.....</p><p>Both words are huge determinants of our becoming because they pattern the mindset in thinking and influences the behaviour. </p><p><strong>One creates an imitative atmosphere while the other creates an innovative atmosphere, One makes you see others than yourself, the other makes you see yourself as one others should look at.</strong></p><p>Many of us use and live with these words in an incorrect manner, and when we say them to ourselves, the speech contradicts the action. The words "as" and "like" ..... hmmmm...two words, two meaning, two manner of results, and two kinds of living. THEY REPRESENT DIFFERENT IDENTITIES.....</p><p>I'LL BE USING DIFFERENT EXAMPLES</p><blockquote>When I say "I think like a great man" , this means I think, because great men have thoughts and I have to pattern myself LIKE them, but if I say "I think as a great man" it means I envision my thoughts because I'm a great man. I think AS a great man think. For example, I am to act the role of a mad man in a movie, all I need to do is to copy the way mad men do and act <strong><em>like</em></strong> them.</blockquote><blockquote> An amateur actor can act like a character by copying gestures, but a professional actor performs as the character, meaning they inhabit the mindset and motivations. When you do something like someone else, you are treating them as a separate model to follow but when you act as someone, you are operating from within that role.</blockquote><h3><strong><em>WHEN YOU SAY:</em></strong></h3><blockquote><span style="background-color: transparent;">"I work like a leader": It means you are watching leaders and trying to mimic their habits.</span></blockquote><h3><strong><em>BUT WHEN YOU SAY:</em></strong></h3><blockquote>"I work as a leader": It means leadership is your current state, and your actions naturally flow from that reality!</blockquote><p>Preparing for new year resolutions and goals to achieve needs a good dose of you living in what you envision yourself as. Though they might not be evident now, but when the life you dream of starts happening, you can't be a stranger to it, trying to adapt to it because you already prepared for it.</p><blockquote>WHAT YOU VISUALIZE, YOU WORK TOWARDS AND ACTUALIZE.</blockquote><blockquote>PEACE ✌️</blockquote>
