How to Appear Busy & Successful Even When You’re Barely Holding It Together
Nov
Being successful is 80% performance, 19% caffeine, and 1% actually doing stuff.
You might be down bad, but nobody needs to KNOW that.
Here’s how to cosplay as a thriving adult when you are, in fact, a financial raccoon with Wi-Fi.
1. Always Look Slightly Rushed
Walk fast.
Sigh dramatically.
Check your phone with intensity.
Shake your head like you just dealt with so much.
People will assume:
- You have a schedule
- You have responsibilities
- You are doing “big things”
In reality:
- You’re just late because you overslept
- Again
Fake it.
We ball.
2. Carry a Laptop Everywhere
This screams:
“I have meetings.”
Are you actually doing anything on it?
Absolutely not.
But the VIBE is corporate excellence.
Bonus:
Open random spreadsheets so no one can prove otherwise.
3. Use Buzzwords Incorrectly But Confidently
Say things like:
- “We’ll circle back.”
- “I’ll sync that out.”
- “There’s synergy here.”
- “We’re optimizing flow structures.”
No one knows what any of that means.
Confidence is the currency of capitalism.
4. Drink Iced Coffee Like It’s Your Job
Iced coffee = status.
Walk around holding it like:
- You’re carrying company secrets
- And emotional damage (you are)
Sip dramatically.
Look tired.
Congrats: you look productive.
5. Make Your Calendar Look Violent
Add fake calendar events like:
- “Strategic planning session”
- “Brand initiative sync”
- “Q4 pipeline structure review”
These are not real things.
But if someone sees your screen:
You look like the CEO of 17 companies.
6. Send Emails at Weird Times
Nothing says grindset like an email at:
- 6:13 AM
- 11:48 PM
- 2:42 AM (psychopath)
People will whisper:
“They are dedicated.”
No.
You just have chaotic sleep problems.
7. Carry a Notebook & Never Write in It
Just hold it.
Tap it thoughtfully.
Flip it open and nod like the math is mathing.
You don’t have to write anything.
The notebook is a prop.
You?
Main character.
Conclusion
You are:
- Tired
- Broke
- Slightly unhinged
But with these techniques?
You will appear unstoppable.
You don’t have to have your life together.
You just have to look like you do.
And honestly?
That’s the most Too Bro thing ever.
Stay delusional.
Stay impressive.
Stay TOO BRO. 🫡🔥
