thinking about performative phenomena that aren't so much fake-it-til-you-make-it as that faking it *is* making it, which i have the impulse to call autoveridical example in mind is if you can successfully falsify courage and act despite not feeling courageous, that *is* courage

I’m feeling autoveridicality but that courage example isn’t quite right. Classic conceptualization of courage a la Aristotle is to proceed (properly) despite (proper) fear, not due to lack of it
