Did you know that how you feel influences how you act?
If you’re feeling blue, you’re more likely to slouch and speak in a monotone way.
If you’re feeling awesome, you sit a little taller and smile, and that makes your tone sound more friendly.
If you want to be perceived as successful and professional, then you should aim to feel successful and professional.
But how?
Dress to impress….yourself!
If you dress well, you’ll feel better and more professional - giving off the confidence you want. If your office dress code is business casual, try dressing up a bit and see if you don’t feel more empowered.
New research points that the old adage of dressing for the job you want may have truth to it. Watch WSJ style reporter Ray Smith and Tanya Rivero discuss.
