So Fresh and So Clean By Mel

 
As a man it is very important to have a unique style of dressing whether it is professional, churchy or casual just to name a few can express your characteristics.  A confident man understands that you dress for success to impress yourself and no one else.  You have to picture yourself that you are a product package design to sell yourself within the World we live in today because let’s face it, the world revolves around selling.  Appropriate dressing is also a way of expressing respect for the situation and the people in it. Your dress attire can be design to sell yourself to a gorgeous female or a dream job to get your foot in the door to have a long lasting career.  Here are some tips that can help sharpen your wardrobe even if you have a limited amount of outfits.

Ball up a plastic bag and stuff it deep within your sneaker/shoe to the very tip to keep it nicely shape.
This technique is what keeps your footwear from collapsing.  The moment you strap them on no matter what activity is being conducted throughout the day puts pressure on your sneakers/shoes which means overtime they will begin to show some wear and tear.  Not only will the plastic bag put within your footwear will help retain their original shape but also the box they came in can protect them from the dust swarming in your closet.  If this happens make sure you use disinfectant towels to gently wipe across the bottom sole and other areas you seem fit.  Try doing this twice a day, once in the morning and once at night.   For example, I still have a pair of all white Nike Air Force Ones a year old that still look new till this day.  Also, females are more observant then men.  April D. stated in her previous blog that usually the first portion of your design package a woman looks at is your sneaker/shoe game.  It is very critical to stay on point when it comes to your footwear.
 


Wear jeans/pants that can fit you.
I cannot stress this enough and some people may think it is a generational fashion difference but wearing your bottom wear below your ankles is very disrespectful.  What woman would want to see a man’s dirty draws?  There’s even a deeper meaning to this aspect.  Allowing your pants to sag is related to prisoners who weren’t allowed to have belts in jail to prevent self-harm or infliction on others.  This also relates to blacks who were enslaved were denied belts for fear they would aid in escape.  Today’s generation is full of clones replicating their celebrity role model not knowing the negative drawback from this distasteful fashion trend.  Real women are attracted to men who wear jeans/pants that are well iron and most importantly fit their body size correctly. 
 


Wear a watch and a nice pair of glasses.
This means you have respect for time.  It doesn’t have to be a $2,000 Rolex watch worn by a famous rapper with diamonds in the middle.  It can be a unique watch that compliments your style which defines that you value time very seriously.  Glasses gives you that intelligent look which can make your outfit as well as your personality stand out even more.  For example, big bold glasses from the average outsider displays you have a bold personality and you are a courageous person.  People may view you as a very confident person.
 
Over time I learned you can be well groomed by using simple techniques in the most effective ways.  Most people evaluate you by appearance and perfecting your package design in a unique way can give you a great first impression.  Watch your budget and don’t be afraid to go into stores like TJ Maxx, Marshalls or even shop online to help you save money.

Single Fathers should get more exposure By Mel

Father! - To God himself we cannot give a holier name by William Wordsworth is such a powerful quote.   I would like to say single and non-residential fathers are portrayed in the media as irresponsible and non-supportive to their kids.   Well, I’m here to share with you through some research that it is not entirely true.   Even though single and non-residential fathers as a whole are an understudied group there’s still some truth that single and supportive non-residential fathers do exist.   Some fathers are working 2 part-time jobs and are unable to get government assistance.   The media rarely report positive fathers working 7 days a week with no days off, struggling paycheck to paycheck.    For myself as a non-residential father, I still support my daughter in every aspect, however the role of a father is never recognize or acknowledge for my continuous involvement.   ·          A Non-resident...

BE who you ARE, not who the World wants you to BE By Mel

  Life is full surprises.   When you’re out there in the field you get a sense that all eyes are on you.   That oil to your engine is confidence .   Every ounce in your body engages you to stay well groomed, sell your image, build your vocabulary and practice on your art or goals in life.   That’s a very attractive trait to have and I will tell you why.   The love you put inside yourself shines externally which creates this invisible aura.   It creates offensive projections defined as the way you carry yourself or how you interact with people combine with defensive measures such as keeping your guard up and not allowing people to take advantage of you.   We all have our moments when we navigate in unfamiliar territory.   For example, giving your time and effort to someone who shortchanged you or getting laid off from a promising career just because you challenged the status quo.   Sometimes you feel betrayed but let me share som...

No Love in the Club The 90/10 Rule By Vaughn James

If you’re in your mid 30’s or just turned 40, you shouldn’t be in the club every weekend. Guys, you seriously don’t want to be the sleazy old man in the club. And ladies, you shouldn’t be out getting your drink on, leaving your fourteen year old teenager to watch your younger kids. The fact is, even when we were all young, the chances that men and women could find a meaning full relationship in a club was next to zero, but closer to 5%. “Wait a minute”, you may ask, “how can that be quantified?” I’ll explain. Simply, when we go out to the clubs, 90% of the men are trying to get with 10% of the women and 90% of the women are trying to get with 10% of the men. So, the likelihood that there will be any kind of real hookup is 5%, half of 10%. Besides, the club is a terrible place to meet someone. They are overly hyped by the radio station and promoters, who make it seem like your life will end if you don’t go to their club Friday and Saturday nights. Additionally, the mixed alco...
