Research has shown that a positive physical appearance is a quick, efficient way to increase self-confidence and also get rid of anxiety for most people. "You feel more relaxed, confident, capable, cooperative, and productive when you look presentable, authentically you, and appropriate for the situation," Says Judith Rasband, a President of Conselle Institute of Image Management.
Judy is a firm believer that your clothing and grooming habits often affect the way we think about ourselves. In her short book called "Power of personal appearance" Judy wrote, "You can’t afford to think negatively about yourself due to some aspect of your appearance. When you appear authentic, attractive, and appropriate, you think more positively about yourself, your situation, and others."
"You must be aware of the impact of your appearance as it speaks to you first before it communicates to others. If you want to succeed as an individual in today's extremely complicated and competitive culture. Both how you feel about yourself and how others perceive you are influenced by what you wear and how you appear." States Rasband, the author of the book.
When asked for advice, Judy wrote, "Think in terms of dressing authentically for you as an individual—for your personality, values, attitudes, and interests. Think in terms of dressing appropriately for the group, the occasion, and the purpose at hand. Think in terms of dressing attractively for your physical body. The same advice applies to your grooming."
