Over spring break I was in this strange place that we refer to as our nations capital, Washington DC. As I was there I went to visit my brother and my cousins who live there. On Sunday we went to church and it was very interesting to see the different environment there. It was really interesting to see that everyone was dressed very nicely. Not just like a polo shirt and jeans like many of us see at church in other places but a lot nicer looking. I started to think about how the people who live in that city and the surrounding area are always trying to sell themselves. It is very important for them to dress nicely wherever they go. The reason for this is that they are always trying to sell themselves. It is all about making connections and growing their professional network almost always there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There was also a time when we just went out to eat at a basic restaurant, nothing special and everyone I saw looked very well put together. I found it very interesting that so many of these young professionals are always dressing nicely and being ready for business always.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I always thought that selling yourself was just about the way that you interacted with people and talked to them in conversation but I realized that it includes the way you present yourself as well. If you present yourself like a professional people will treat you like such. But, if you dress like a schlub then you won’t get as much respect.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
