Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society. Mark Twain
Mark Twain had it right, clothes do make the person. If this is true, why do so many insist on avoiding this precept? Is it because they think that turning the radio louder, they’ll become invisible? All too often, it takes an embarrassing situation to infuse a person with effort to change.
I’m pretty much a glass half full kind of guy. So rather than concentrate on how poor dressing keeps someone back, it’s better to suggest what dressing better will do for them.
So here are some of my not so scientific reasons why you should always look your best:
Look like you belong: you may not think its fair, but you are being judged by your peers on how you dress, those on high are reviewing those down below. Keep tabs on how they dress.
That job interview: it is a beaten horse, but people still don’t get it, you’re being judged if you really want this job. Just think, do you lose the interview because you came to the interview dressed wearing a polo shirt and khaki pants?
Dating: Another beaten horse and people still act is if it doesn’t matter. Your first impression does matter.
Self esteem: if you look good you, you feel good and a positive vibe is what it’s all about. And everyone can feel that vibe too.
Any other suggestions?
Keep dressing sharp!
