How does one "appear to be" without actually "being"?

indeed. deeds not words. very good. i like that even more.

specifically, i'd like to "be" a great producer, rather than just appearing to be by having all the fancy equipment and knowing all the right people and taking the right classes.

i'd also like to be someone who is on top of things rather than just appearing to be on top of things.

and, most importantly, i'd like to be a truly good and spiritual and high-minded person rather than just calling myself a baha'i and appearing to be that way.

that is, i'd rather be truly good at my very core rather than be good-coated rottenness.
