Getting dressed has a positive influence

Did you know that when you put clothes on, you adapt to the characteristics of what you are wearing, that is why a pair of those fitted jeans makes you feel like a rockstar, or that blazer makes you feel powerful and invincible in that power suit, that’s why you feel beautiful and sexy in that little black dress. You must make sure your clothes are pushing you forward and making you feel confident instead of the other way round. There is already so much happening and influencing the world negatively, you don’t want your outfit to be part of those things.

Clothing can make you feel good or bad

Most people underestimate the power of clothing and how it can make you feel — good or bad. Clothing can be transformative, it can make you feel confident, it makes you feel like you. Karen J. P, a psychologist found in her research evidence for how our clothes have the power to change our minds, how making a simple tweak to what you wear can literally be life-changing, how the right outfit can make you a better thinker. The most important decision you make every morning maybe what to wear. Think about it for a second, why do you choose the clothes you do; do they express your true personality, and can they really determine the course your day will take? Or even your life?

Increasing your productivity

“Getting dressed helps you feel more productive because it signals to you that you’re in work mode,” When you stay in your nightwear or in those sloppy clothes, your brain signals to your body that it is time for sleep and relaxation, that’s why you keep yawning at your home office desk. Your brain needs to have that differentiation between being in work mode and having leisure time. So it is equally important for you to change into relaxing clothes at the end of the day. I challenge you, if you are not dressing up for work, start today and you will witness a tremendous improvement in your productivity levels.
