Working from home on your own can cause laziness. If you treat it like a hobby, you’ll have hobby results, so treat it like a business.
GET UP, GET DRESSED AND GO TO WORK!
The act of being dressed will set this time apart from doing household chores, watching TV and drinking coffee. Yes, you have the luxury of working in your pj’s, but when you are dressed for work you’re more likely to leave the house, network and connect with clients.
*WINNING WITH YOUR CLOTHES!
Color attracts the eye first. Are you wearing the right color?
How many times has someone asked you “Are you tired?” “Are you not feeling well?” and yet you were perfectly fine! Chances are you were wearing the wrong color. The natural color of your skin, your hair and your eyes determines which colors will make you look radiant or washed out.
When you are wearing your best colors, there is a balance and harmony between your natural color and the colors you are wearing. The colors of our skin, hair and eyes will seem fresher and brighter. Your skin will appear more clear and healthier, and because of how others will react to you, you will feel more confident.
When you are not wearing your best colors, there is a lack of balance or harmony between you and your clothes. Your clothes will clash with your natural color, causing you to look unhealthy and tired. Any lines or dark, uneven color in your face will be more apparent.
Knowing whether you are Warm or Cool is the foundation of your personal image.
Here is a quick do-it-yourself assessment to identify which colors will make you look your best.
In the natural light make a fist and look at the inside of your wrist.
If you see Green veins your are WARM and Red, Orange & Yellows will look amazing on you.
If you see Blue veins you are COOL and Green, Blue and Violets will look beautiful on you.
What if you see Blue and Green veins?
Ah, ha! Most likely, you are both Warm and Cool. You’re NEUTRAL. You can wear any color on the color wheel.
Divide the wheel down the middle. To the right are WARM colors. To the left are COOL colors.
Your eye color is your best neutral. If you have no idea what color to wear… go with the color of your eyes!
