Time to Laugh, Drink, Think, and Feed the Brain
· Think for yourself.
· Do not think outside the box.
· Instead, begin by rejecting that the box exists.
- Former President of the United States Donald Trump drops the F-Bomb.
- President of the United States Joseph Biden on food shortages, but who is he talking about?
- How much of an indirect tax are you willing to pay for those who cannot control themselves?
- How far does the moral obligation extend?
- Rental housing - Shortage, prices, and who's fault is it.
- Will people think about the fundamentals when the midterm elections come around?
- Do the majority of voting Americans have the time horizon to remember last year, let alone a few decades ago?
- Dress for Success - Is it long gone?
- Standards change and some continue to be insecure about their lives.
- Not me.
Dressing for success may gain momentum in the upcoming years. Why? Because the "California Friday Casual" is worn out. More and more men and women of a certain class, are willing to say "No, that's not my cup of tea." The higher one is in management, the better dressed one needs to be. Hint: Your faded and torn jeans may work well for Tinder, but not so in a boardroom.
One of the sought after skills I look for when hiring, is one's ability to dress appropriately. I've seen it all, and often I'm appalled.
When it comes to real estate, dressing for success was essential in the luxury real estate market if you wanted to close deals; and here's a hint, "it still is." Regardless of who, what, where, when, or why, if you have half-a-brain, you want to make a good first impression. As for shoes, learn to polish them.
Professional business relationships require standards. The person who rushes to nay-say that dress does not overcome ability, well, yes Gomerette, that's right. Gomer is always Gomer, but Gomer might have a tad more common sense in knowing when and what to wear.
What is the image you wish to convey? For me, I'm too old to put up with hogwash; and for that matter, I rarely tolerated hogwash from anyone. Hint: It's called "standards."
