If you are keen to build an amazing lifestyle for yourself, you probably want to be a worldly and sophisticated person. So, in this article, I’d like to talk about how to be well-traveled, well-dressed and well-spoken so that you will know how to create a beautiful life for the future.
- Do you have enough resources? Are you resourceful?
The pandemic possibly has taken a lot of your resources away, but it can’t take away your resourcefulness. I know someone who has lost his high-profile job due to COVID-19, so he had to start a new career. Because his previous job gave him a very comfortable lifestyle, he wasn’t proactively building his network at that time. Truthfully, as he was very successful, people around him were constantly asking for things from him. As a consequence, he wasn’t very interested in building a big social circle. When he was made redundant because of COVID, he realized that only one very close friend could help him with his career.
Having said that, he is extremely resourceful. He figured out something new and started his own business in time, so he doesn’t need an employer anymore. Right now he works for himself and works from home. No daily commute. No one to deal with at work. No boss to report to. He is smart because he is very well-read. As a truly avid reader, he reads at least 12 books a year and he has had this educational habit for many years. He told me that because he is well-read, he is also well-spoken: he always has something interesting to talk about and he knows how to have engaging conversations. His conversation skills are very impressive as he knows how to talk entertainingly. 😉
Since he only needs a laptop to run his online business, he is actually location-independent. As a result, he is able to spend some time in other countries and still do his business on the Internet. That’s exactly why he knows how to be well-traveled: As COVID is not a problem anymore nowadays, he has visited almost 10 countries while running an online business that brings him joy every single day. Basically, in order to travel, he needs sufficient freedom.
- Why should you be well-dressed?
When you are well-dressed, your perceived value is higher. For example, Nicholas is a business consultant who works with clients every day. In my opinion, Nicholas is a very well-dressed guy: He wears designer clothes all the time – from his point of view, dressing well is an investment.
Yes, whenever a new client is sitting in Nicholas’s office, the client can see that Nicholas is so well-dressed. Thus, the new client is thinking… “He is very well-dressed. That means other people have already paid him high fees, so he can afford high-end clothes. Hence, he must offer really good business advice.” That’s why the new client is willing to pay Nicholas more! That’s also why Nicholas is able to charge a higher fee compared to his competitors who probably provide clients with the same business advice anyway.
In other words, being well-dressed helps you to achieve more success in your career. If you would like to have a promotion, you’d better dress like the person that you want to become, and then you are more likely to actually get the promotion. You will manifest the position that you dream about because of Law of Attraction. 😊
