Look Good! Feel Great!
Some people might say that speaking about a person’s looks is critical: It might not be politically correct but consciously or sub-consciously, people make all sorts of assumptions about others based purely on how they look, or dress, or speak.
When someone meets you for the first time, those couple of minutes make up everything that they know about you. Even though you have a million other things going for you; past experiences, skills, knowledge, thoughts, dreams, accomplishments, to someone new; the little they have seen of you is 100% of what they know about you.
Say for example someone walks into your workplace looking totally professional and well groomed. You have no evidence of anything other then them being well dressed. However based on that you will assume they must be smart, successful, intelligent, reliable, and so on - based on little or no evidence. And if they walk in looking unkempt and unfinished, you can imagine what other characteristics will be assigned.
Conveying the right image can make all the difference to your personal and professional success. When you meet someone for the first time, an impression and a perception is formed in a split second. And remember – perceptions are reality and you’d be better off spending a little extra time grooming yourself that will result in a lifetime of confidence.

every morning, after shower, shaved, put gel on my hair, put on shirt that I've iron over the weekend and make sure color are right - am ready to go out.
sometimes, if things does not right (hair, unkempt face, sloppy clothes), i do not dare to step from out the house. i am too conscious on first impressions esp when am out to public.
today one of my colleague look classy. the "looking good" is very important to us. it gives a fresh moment to other when you look at her. you may guess who??
well groomed and clean are very very important. no matter how casual the environment we are in, we have to know where is the line to be casual and smart casual.
Your look can help you in a lot of ways, getting a date, getting new job, winning a beauty contest...and a lot more...so looking good definately will make you feel great in any situation.
