00:00:00
have you ever been told dress for the
00:00:01
job you want not the job you have I was
00:00:04
recently listening to the book steal
00:00:06
like an artist by Austin Cleon and this
00:00:09
idea popped up at first I didn't give
00:00:12
this statement a second thought but as
00:00:14
time went on I couldn't shake this idea
00:00:17
out of my head dress for the job you
00:00:19
want not the job you have what exactly
00:00:23
does that mean and how can changing your
00:00:26
attire change the outcome of your
00:00:29
current career Endeavor in today's video
00:00:32
we're going to attempt to answer that
00:00:34
exact question and in the process of
00:00:36
searching for that answer also examine
00:00:38
what it means to become Timeless for
00:00:41
those of you who don't know me my name
00:00:43
is Drew what ad do is nice to meet you
00:00:45
let's talk about the power of clothing
00:00:48
the idea of dressing for the job you
00:00:50
want and not the job you have is a
00:00:51
simple idea rooted in self-esteem
00:00:54
self-esteem is defined as confidence in
00:00:57
one's own worth and abilities and what
00:01:00
you believe about the clothes you wear
00:01:02
is directly related to your personal
00:01:05
self-esteem and confidence as an
00:01:07
individual we've all experienced that
00:01:09
boost in self-esteem when we're wearing
00:01:12
items of clothing that we believe to be
00:01:14
good or we believe that we look good in
00:01:16
for me I personally feel the most
00:01:19
confident after I get a haircut and when
00:01:22
I'm wearing an outfit that I think just
00:01:24
looks fly to me like if I have two of
00:01:27
those things going on at the same time I
00:01:29
feel like my super powers are on 10 what
00:01:31
you wear and what you believe about what
00:01:33
you wear sends signals to the people
00:01:36
around you and sends signals to your
00:01:38
subconscious mind we believe what we
00:01:41
tell ourselves and in the case of
00:01:44
fashion the idea behind dressing for the
00:01:46
job you want is all about taking
00:01:48
initiative on the life that you want to
00:01:50
live through one very specific
00:01:52
controllable decision that decision is
00:01:55
what we decide to wear now of course
00:01:58
just because you decide to wear a suit
00:02:00
and tie or an evening gown it does not
00:02:02
mean that tomorrow you'll end up being
00:02:04
the next president of whatever country
00:02:06
that you're living in right now dressing
00:02:07
for the job you want is all about taking
00:02:09
tangible action to begin to change your
00:02:11
mentality about what you are striving
00:02:15
for and there are endless things that we
00:02:17
all are constantly striving for whether
00:02:20
that be getting a particular job living
00:02:23
in a particular City or being associated
00:02:26
with a particular group of people to
00:02:28
believe in oneself and to wear clothing
00:02:31
that exemplifies that belief is powerful
00:02:34
now before we move on a big inspiration
00:02:37
for this video is wanting to talk about
00:02:39
well-being and self-worth and one of the
00:02:41
best ways to positively impact your
00:02:44
personal well-being is by listening to
00:02:46
your favorite audiobooks and podcasts on
00:02:50
Audible maintaining your mental health
00:02:52
is just as important as maintaining your
00:02:54
physical health whether it's diving into
00:02:56

00:02:58

www.audible.com Drew J it'll also be
00:03:12
linked down in the description or text
00:03:14
Drew J to 500500 to get started with
00:03:17
Audible for free the idea of
00:03:19
timelessness in fashion is one of the
00:03:21
most interesting concepts for the
00:03:23
industry timelessness is defined as
00:03:26
having no beginning or end in
00:03:28
timelessness typically refers to that of
00:03:31
which is unending something or someone
00:03:34
that is ever enduring usually when I
00:03:37
think about timelessness and fashion I'm
00:03:39
thinking about the garments or the
00:03:41
styles that have stood the test of time
00:03:44
items like denim jeans oxfords Blazers
00:03:47
and heels these items just feel Timeless
00:03:50
to me but I don't think building a
00:03:53
Timeless wardrobe is something that is
00:03:55
actually achievable from a contemporary
00:03:58
fashion standpoint from a modern fashion
00:04:00
standpoint to become Timeless I think
00:04:03
it's less about owning particular pieces
00:04:06
and more so about the ideas your clothes
00:04:09
represent denim for example is a
00:04:11
Timeless fabric because it has shape
00:04:13
shifted in use case from generation to
00:04:15
generation from being worn and being
00:04:17
used as the quintessential garment for
00:04:20
gold miners in the 1800s fast forwarding
00:04:23
to the 50s when denim was a
00:04:25
representative of rebellion and a
00:04:28
rebellious youth movement that was
00:04:29
taking place to now where there are so
00:04:33
many use cases for denim that have so
00:04:35
many different variations it's a pure
00:04:37
example of that shape shifting taking
00:04:39
place and it's a good example of how the
00:04:41
ideas that we hold about particular
00:04:44
garments is what makes them Timeless
00:04:46
more so than the actual fabric material
00:04:50
or specific type of piece that's being
00:04:52
made at any given time denim is a really
00:04:54
good example because denim while it is
00:04:55
timeless especially denim jeans
00:04:57
dungarees they have changed
00:04:59
significantly over time they have moved
00:05:01
with the times right they aren't the
00:05:03
same as they were back in the 1800s or
00:05:05
the early 19th century or excuse me the
00:05:08
early 20th century and that's important
00:05:10
for timelessness as well I think in
00:05:12
fashion the definition that we hold for
00:05:14
timelessness doesn't really hold up for
00:05:17
the fashion industry because clothes
00:05:18
change over time no matter how authentic
00:05:22
a garment is from the 1600s it just
00:05:24
won't look the same in 2024 there's
00:05:27
going to be some variable changes which
00:05:29
is the opposite of timelessness but the
00:05:32
ideas that represent the clothing those
00:05:34
are the things that maintain over the
00:05:37
years over the generation when you
00:05:39
embody these ideals the clothes you wear
00:05:42
become literally wrapped up in the
00:05:44
manifestation of the ideas that you
00:05:46
represent that's why something like
00:05:48
black Ivy or Punk Styles have such an
00:05:51
irrefutably Timeless feel and look to
00:05:55
them in layman's terms in order to
00:05:57
become Timeless within the context of
00:06:00
fashion you have to embody Timeless
00:06:04
ideas ideas such as justice peace
00:06:08
freedom these are ideas that I feel like
00:06:11
no matter what stage of humanity may
00:06:14
look back on these ideas will resonate
00:06:17
with human beings of the past and of the
00:06:20
future and that is in of itself more in
00:06:24
line with timelessness than a specific
00:06:27
piece a pair of shoes or a uh particular
00:06:30
jacket those things are fleeting but the
00:06:33
ideas behind those things and what
00:06:35
clothing represents as an ideal those
00:06:38
things are truly
00:06:39
Timeless let me know what you guys think
00:06:41
of this video was it something that kind
00:06:44
of got the wheels turning a little bit
00:06:45
or was it just like Drew what what was
00:06:47
this video regardless I enjoyed making
00:06:49
it and hopefully someone out there also
00:06:52
kind of is trying to get what I'm
00:06:55
explaining I don't know this is
00:06:57
different this is different for me I
00:06:58
tried something new so honestly this
00:07:00
video is kind of like a brain fart of
00:07:02
ideas and I just let my thoughts come to
00:07:05
the Forefront and I think it's important
00:07:06
to do that as a as a Creator as someone
00:07:08
who makes videos on YouTube not every
00:07:10
video is going to be this like super
00:07:12
polished perfect like concise idea
00:07:15
sometimes it's important to just get
00:07:16
ideas out there and see if they resonate
00:07:19
with anyone and that's exactly what
00:07:20
today's video
00:07:21
was as always I'm spreading peace love
00:07:24
and positivity in 2024 so that means I'm
00:07:26
