These couple of days I have been reading an interesting novel by James Clear titled *Atomic Habits* and it has in some way inspired me to inspect the way I dress which can lead to remarkable results in the end. I actually like how he uses the simplest method of getting goals achieved by aiming to be the best of yourself just by 1%. In relations to style, outfits and clothes , those little 1% efforts of looking properly instead of improper will yield major returns in your goal tracking mindset.
Dressing properly results in achieving your goals even if you haven’t seen it happening yet
This is one of the outcomes of looking the part and of dressing properly, you get to achieve that goal you have set even if you feel like you haven’t seen any result from those attempts of pursuing your goals. It starts with having faith in yourself and when you dress the part too, you become eager to accomplish more.
Dressing properly opens doors in areas you least expected
Let’s say someone spotted you wearing nice clothes such as a well ironed dress shirt, a necktie, formal pants and dress shoes and that person actually starts to communicate with you and shows interest in helping you wherever that person can help, that is where the power of dressing comes in, people feel obliged to assist you even when you didn’t ask them. In the area of business, you get to sign major deals because you dress the part. Therefore, dress properly gents, it doesn’t have to a suit but clothes that are generally presentable and neat.
Dressing properly ages you a bit and that is good if you want to be taken seriously in life
This is another result of always looking proper, it will make you look older, this has happened to me when I dress my best clothes, people get to assume I am married or in my 30s yet I am not. This is a good thing though because if you want to shape your life just like James Clear mentioned it in his book, that us if you want to become better every day, apply the 1% method and you will see how serious your goals will be and you will also take yourself seriously
Dressing properly makes you appear wiser
Who said only Lawyers, Doctors, Surgeons and Scientists are the only group of professions filled with wise and smart people. If you can dress like either of these people here you will feel wise and too and knowledgeable in everything you put your mind on, first dress properly then go out and make things happen.
LETS WRAP IT UP
- Dressing sharp results in your achieving your goals even if you haven’t seen it happening yet
- Dressing sharp opens doors in areas you least expected
- Dressing sharp ages you à bit and that’s good if you want to be taken seriously in life
- Dressing properly makes you appear wise

🤔 We need to dress in a way that is suited for all environments; whether it be a casual or business setting.
Suits, dress shoes, and ties for business.
Jeans, shirts, and sneakers are acceptable when one is dressing casually.

Well said my brother Renard. I don’t dispute that we need to dress in a way that is comfortable even if you wear casual clothes or formal clothes. Thank you for your suggestion and comment😊🙏

I think I’ve mentioned this before, but the world is 100% judgemental and not everybody admits that. Those who don’t, need to stumble across a disheveled man in a dark alley and tell me they aren’t judging that person as a potential threat. Dressing up is a way of communicating before we even start communicating. Anyway, thanks for this post!

Exactly Stuart, whether we like it or not, the world will always judge that is why I always emphasize on my blog that men should dress well because your personality isn’t the first thing people see, it is your outfit. Thanks for dropping by as usual my friend😊🙏
