Professional Physical Presentation
This is a hard one because its personal. How do you look physically? Would you do business with someone who looks like you if they walked into your office. Currently, I’m carrying some extra weight and I’m constantly working on it but I know for a fact that business is great when you LOOK great. Everyone is not going to do business with you because they like your brand, some people will do business with you because they admire you, are attracted to your personality or your charisma. You can’t have much of that if you are not confident in your appearance. People REALLY admire those of us who are over 40 and who are in GREAT physical shape. It’s just our culture. Do what makes you comfortable but take a look at many of the most successful people. I’ve seen many in the music industry and a majority of them are physically fit. Oprah Winfrey is the exception to the rule but even she is uncomfortable being overweight as she has expressed on many occasions.
