Quality dressence is an asset that anyone should aspire to own. It not only sets you apart from the crowd; it also gives you grace and elegance. Grooming and
dresence to an extent reflects a person’s psyche – whether a person is happy,
depressed, vain, proud, lacks or has a healthy self esteem, God or not. Great grooming,
dressence and taste are cultivated. They take conscious regular practice and
once acquired, deliberate conscious efforts should be made to enhance and
sustain it.
A person’s grooming and dressence to an extent, in
fact a large extent is a reflection of where the person is headed in life. Some
cuts and style of clothes reflect rigidity and a refusal to move with the
times.
Your
dressence and personal grooming communicates and sends out strong signals about
your personality, attitudes, your strengths, weaknesses, attitudes. The
repertoire of your dressence and
personal grooming is a pointer to whether you love yourself, care about and
love other people, respect authority it is also an indication of your power,
success, confidence, self respect, dignity or failure.
Beloved,
the key questions I pose to you as I close this piece is what do you
communicate through your dress and personal grooming? Do you communicate strengths, weaknesses, failure, successes,
abundance, lack, hope, frustration, confidence, excellence, diligence,
carelessness, love, hate, faith, dejection, rejection, I can never succeed, I
can always succeed and I am a success study, wealth, poverty, intelligence,
stupidity? The list is endless.
How
you package and present yourself communicates to the world who you are on the
outside. Therefore do not ever communicate poverty and lack, failure, worries
and anxiety, frustration and rejection through your dressence and personal
grooming.
Rather
communicate confidence, elegance, style, poise and panache as well as
excellence and abundance through your dressence and personal grooming as you
walk through and take your permanent slot on Success Street. Shalom
