Then he bought a set of the best shirts, collars, ties, suspenders and so on. At this time, his debt has reached $675.
Every morning, he wears a brand-new suit and "meets" a rich publisher in the same street. Hill cleans with him every day and occasionally talks for a minute or two.
About a week after this routine meeting, the publisher began to talk to Hill and said, "You seem to get along well."
Then the publisher wants to know what kind of business Hill does. Because Hill's highly accomplished temperament, coupled with a different set of new clothes every day, has aroused great curiosity of publishers, which is exactly what Hill hopes to happen.
Hill then told the publisher easily: "I am preparing a new magazine and intend to publish it in the near future." The name of the magazine is Hill's Golden Rule. "
The publisher said, "I am engaged in magazine printing and distribution. Maybe I can help you too. "
This is the moment Hill was waiting for. When he bought these new clothes, he had already thought of this moment in his heart, and the earth on which they stood was almost perfect.
The publisher invited Hill to his club to have lunch with him. Before coffee and cigarettes were served, he "persuaded" Hill to sign a contract with him to print and distribute Hill magazine. Hill even "promised" to allow him to provide funds without any interest.
At least $30,000 is needed to publish Hill's Golden Law magazine, and every penny of it is raised from the "cover" made of beautiful clothes.
The appearance of success always attracts people's eyes, especially the expression of success can attract people's "approval eyes". Of course, these clothes also contain a kind of ability, which is the perfect embodiment of self-confidence and creativity.
A person's length has an influence on himself. Dressing well to make a good impression is equivalent to telling everyone: "This is an important person, smart, successful and reliable. Everyone can respect, admire and trust him. He respects himself and we respect him. "
Only when the other person agrees with you and accepts you, can you enter the other person's world smoothly, communicate with the other person easily, and do your own thing well, which is largely related to your external dress.
People who make a good impression on each other are good at communication and cooperation. And a person's appearance is one of the basic elements to leave a good impression on the other party. Imagine that a disheveled person and an elegant and tidy person, under similar other conditions, do the same thing, I am afraid that the former is likely to be left out in the cold, while the latter is more likely to be treated well. Especially when working in a strange place, it is more important to leave a good first impression on others. There has long been a saying in the world that "clothes make the horse lean on the saddle". If a person has a set of good clothes, it is like raising his social status to a higher level and enhancing his self-confidence psychologically and in the atmosphere. Smart people should not blame the world for "judging people by their appearances." Everyone has eyes, looks and outstanding clothes. Who doesn't particularly respect others? Clothing art not only gives people a good impression, but also directly reflects a person's cultivation, temperament and sentiment. You can often reveal what kind of person you are before others know you or your talent, so a little effort in this respect will get twice the result with half the effort.
The unkempt appearance reminds people of the image of a loser. And perfect decoration and pleasant smell can greatly enhance your image. Some people have never really developed the good habit of self-maintenance, which may be due to the sequela left by untidiness in their school days, the bad example of their parents, or the parents' insufficient attention to themselves. These people often "fish for three days and dry the net for two days". As long as it is basically clean and no one looks down on it, you can come out and settle down. If you pay attention to your image, good gfd habits will soon form. If you are born with a beard and a face, there is nothing you can do, but at least give people the impression that you can manage yourself. The condition of teeth, skin, hair, nails and your behavior all show your self-esteem.
The first impression of others on you often comes from clothes and appearance, because clothes can often express a person's identity and personality. After all, it takes a long time for the other person to understand your inner beauty, and only the instrument can see it at a glance.
The first impression is very important whether the work is smooth or not. If you don't pay attention to appearance, you give yourself a discount and you set yourself an obstacle to success. If you don't pay attention to appearance, you artificially increase the difficulty of what you want to do.
Foreign delegations come to an enterprise to inspect investment matters, and enterprise leaders attach great importance to it. They personally selected several beautiful female models from the celebration company to do the reception work, and specially instructed them to wear tight tops and black leather skirts. The leaders said that only in this way can they show their importance to foreign businessmen. However, the delegation held a meeting in the morning, and before the discussion was finished, the foreign businessmen found an excuse to leave in a hurry, leaving the staff at a loss. Later, I learned through translation that they said that through the dress of the receptionist, they thought that this was an enterprise with extremely lax work and management system and did not need cooperation at all. It turns out that the receptionist of the enterprise made a big taboo in dress. According to dress etiquette's requirements, women wearing tight-fitting thin clothes in the workplace is a manifestation of extremely lax work; In addition, internationally recognized black leather skirts are only worn by prostitutes. ...
Clothing is also a silent language, which shows a person's personality, identity, role, self-restraint, experience and mental state. In interpersonal communication, clothes directly affect others' first impression of you, which is related to the evaluation of your personal image and the image of a company.
TPO is a dress principle put forward by westerners, which is the abbreviation of three words in English: time, place and occasion. TPO dress code requires people to dress according to three factors: time, place and occasion.
1. Time principle
Time not only refers to the morning, noon and evening of every day, but also includes the seasonal changes of spring, summer, autumn and winter every year and the different age stages of life. The principle of timeliness requires that the time factor should be considered in dressing, so as to change clothes with time.
Usually, in the morning, people should dress conveniently and casually at home or in outdoor activities, such as washing and eating at home or going out for exercise. They can choose sportswear, casual wear and casual wear.
Dress for work hours should be based on the characteristics and nature of the work, with the principle of serving the work and being solemn and generous. There are many formal social activities, such as dinners, dances and concerts. The communication distance between people is relatively narrow, and the visual and psychological feelings given by clothing are relatively enhanced. So pay attention to some evening dresses, especially evening dresses.
Clothing should change with the changes of the four shows throughout the year, and it is not appropriate to be unconventional or break the routine.
The summer dress style is cool, gentle and simple. While making yourself cool and comfortable, let the colors and styles of clothes give others a good visual and psychological feeling. In summer, clothes with too many folds and too thick colors not only make people unbearable hot, but also affect the makeup effect once the ladies sweat on their faces.
In winter, we should take warmth and lightness as the principle of dressing, avoid being bloated, and avoid not being warm and graceful, and dress too thin for beauty. It should be noted that even skirts should be light and thin in summer, and skirts with thick fabrics should be worn in winter. The range of choices in spring and autumn will be larger and more.
2. Site selection principle
The principle of location means that different places, places, positions and clothes should be different. Only when a specific environment is matched with clothes that are suitable and coordinated with it can we obtain harmonious visual and psychological beauty.
For example, wearing professional formal clothes only suitable for entertainment, shopping, leisure and sightseeing in formal working environment, or wearing jeans, tennis skirts, sportswear and casual clothes into offices and social places are all signs of disharmony with the environment.
3. The principle of occasion
Different times and places have different requirements. From the perspective of occasions, they can be roughly divided into three categories, namely, official occasions, social occasions and leisure occasions.
(1) Formal occasion
Official occasions refer to the time when you go to work to handle official business. On formal occasions, one's own dress should not emphasize individuality, highlight gender, be too fashionable or appear too casual, but should be both upright and generous and strictly adhere to tradition. The most standard is a dark wool suit, skirt or uniform. Specifically, men had better wear navy blue and gray suits or tunic suits with white shirts inside and dark socks and black leather shoes on their feet. You must wear a tie when you wear a suit. The best dress for a lady is: monochrome suit skirt, white shirt, flesh-colored stockings and black high heels. Sometimes, it is ok to wear a single color dress. Try not to choose a suit with trousers as the bottom. It is not appropriate to wear dirty, worn, revealing, transparent, short and tight clothes on formal occasions.
(2) Social occasions
Social occasions refer to public places where people socialize with others outside official activities. On this occasion, we should focus on the style of "fashion personality", which is neither conservative nor sloppy. When attending banquets, cocktail parties and dances, fashion, dresses, clothes with national characteristics and clothes sewn by individuals are the main items. It should be noted that in many countries, people have the habit of wearing formal clothes when attending grand social activities. In western countries, to attend such a banquet, men should wear the most formal big dress, and women should wear bare-chested and floor-sweeping monochrome dress-style clothing. At present, in China, men wear black tunic suits and suits, while women wear monochrome cheongsam or knee-length dresses. Among them, the Chinese tunic suit and monochrome cheongsam have the most China characteristics. Wearing a uniform is the last thing to attend a party.
(3) Leisure occasions
Leisure occasions refer to the time people spend in leisure places, alone outside official and social activities, or in public places with strangers. Home, fitness, travel, entertainment, shopping, etc. They are all leisure activities. The basic requirements of leisure occasions for clothing styles are: comfort, convenience and naturalness.
In line with this requirement, the clothing styles suitable for leisure occasions are: home clothes, jeans, sportswear, beach clothes and so on. Clothing styles that are not suitable for leisure occasions are: uniforms, dresses, suits, work clothes, dresses, fashion, etc.
