How To Dress For Success and Why it Matters More than You Think
What is the first thing that comes to mind when someone says
Dress for the job you want, not the job you have
I think about dressing for success.
Success is about small actions leading you to where you want to go.
It’s about taking the steps, setting the goals, and performing the actions to get you there.
Why Dress for Success?
Will dressing for success really bring you more success? The answer is simply, yes, and no.
What you wear reflects how people see you.
This is not an invitation to go ahead and overspend on pricey designer clothes.
Putting yourself in debt for appearances is never recommended.
If a job says you can dress casually, or informally, don’t do it.
If you are constantly wearing suits, or dresses people will instantly and subconsciously think that you are successful.
The act of dressing formally, constantly, is about projecting the success you want in your life.
It’s about feeling like you’ve already got the dream job you are working towards and putting that confidence into the universe.
Fashion is like politics, it’s a game of appearances.
Dressing for success won’t bring you success, but it will give other people the impression that you are already successful, and may lead to more opportunities coming your way.
If your style is more casual, or if you prefer comfort to fashion, that’s good, you know your preferences!
There are so many options for where to buy clothes it can be overwhelming!
From the demise of Forever21 stores, which feel like they just came to Canada…
To the increase of online stores, and even fashion subscriptions where you rent outfits based on a quiz.
The fashion market is rapidly adjusting to modern life.
Remember…
It’s amazing if you already dress for success!
But it’s more than that too. It’s about authentically dressing for yourself.
By being you, and projecting a ray of confidence, you are manifesting success.
Blessings,
With love and light,
Stay true stay weird.
