Another Thursday, another opportunity to be intentional about how I show up. But to be honest, the days of the week really don’t matter. Being intentional is an everyday thing — today just happens to be Thursday! 😎 Today is warm and humid here in Greenvale, with thunderstorms expected later, so I wanted something light, comfortable and appropriate for an August office day without losing the sense of polish that matters to me. Light trousers, a crisp white shirt, brown shoes, coordinating belt and socks, and the Panama for when I’m outside. Nothing complicated. But none of it is accidental either. That is probably the common thread running through most of the things I do. I enjoy taking the time to think about the details — not because every detail needs to be noticed by somebody else, but because I notice them. For me, intentionality is really about deciding what my standards are and then trying to live by them consistently. And underneath all of that is gratitude. I am grateful that I get to wake up each morning, go to work, spend time with the people I care about, continue learning, and still find enjoyment in something as simple as choosing what I’m going to wear that day. I never want those ordinary days to become so ordinary that I stop appreciating them. So today’s outfit is relatively simple. But the mindset behind it isn’t. Be intentional. Be grateful. And make the most of the day you’ve been given. 😎

When you look at yourself in the mirror ... When you choose an item of clothing to wear in the morning ... When you choose an item of clothing to buy from a shop or an online store ... What are you hoping to achieve? Do you want to look like you fit in with what you perceive 'your type of person' to be? Do you want to stand out from others who are 'your type of person'? Do you want to look strong and dependable? Artistic and sensitive? Mature and wise? Sexy and attractive 'in that way'? What is your 'goal' beyond keeping warm and not being arrested for indecency?

Another day in Scotland at the Talisker whisky tour. Wore my Orvis flannel shirt on a cold wet day. But still no comparison to coolness of the guy behind me at the little inn where we had lunch. Wearing his waders with a tweed tie Tattersall shirt and a tweed Gillet. He just finished a trip as a guide flyfishing for salmon with a Spey Rod (fly fisherman will get this). Of course he is with his dog at the little Inn Pub.
