FREE TRAINING: How To Write And Launch A Bestselling Book In 1 Hour A Day |
It was last fall. I decided to do work at a Starbucks while I waited for my Wi-Fi to be fixed. I had a few speeches coming up and I needed to prepare. Normally, when I go to Starbucks I don’t think too much about my outfit. Other times, I do.
It just so happened that this time I thought about what shirt I was going to wear before I went. Why? Because I was headed into the heart of Brentwood, CA and I had this feeling that I should wear a shirt that could be a conversation starter. I’m always thinking of ways to meet new people or have new people connect with me and clothes are an easy way to make this happen. If someone is wearing USC, Lakers, or Dodgers gear I will always make a comment to them and say something like “Fight On!” or “Did you see the game last night?” So because of this I thought that if I wear a shirt from one of my previous work experiences and someone knows about it maybe they will say something. That’s when I made the decision to wear a NBA Summer League polo. It was a simple polo with the logo on the left chest. It wasn’t anything huge or crazy, but it was noticeable enough that if someone knew sports or basketball, they might say something. It wasn’t a common shirt so I knew that if someone was going to say something, they either loved basketball or probably worked in the business. I wanted to give myself a chance to connect with someone new!
