What is Action Faking?
"Action-Faking: when you take solitary and/or uncommitted action that is NOT part of a bigger process

For the aspiring entrepreneur who wants to get rich, be his own boss, and blah blah blah, "action-faking" is ordering cards from Vistaprint." - MJ Demarco, Millionaire Fastlane

Action faking is all the stuff we do that makes us feel good about our progress without actually making any meaningful progress.

What does Action Faking Look Like?

Getting a gym membership but not going to the gym
Buying exercise equipment but not using it
