Why style matters
When you walk on the streets, you walk past old people, young couples, groups of teeanegers and on and on. We meet a heck of lot of strangers every day, each one with their unique style.
People with bold style are easily recognized – they stand out from others. Whether it is authoritve or pity – style does paint us, adding extra color to our exterior. How people are going to view us? It’s style that they are looking for, inside and out. That’s why it’s important to form our own style.
Why style is essential? Because…
It makes you identifiable
When reading an article from your favorite publication, you’ll quickly find out who wrote that article without looking at the author line. Because everyone is with different style. And it’s easy to identify a style if you get access to the writing or the person a lot. Even if you don’t get in touch with the person very often, you may find yourself identifying the person with their writing style, fashion style or talking style, especially if their styles are bold.
So, if you want to be remembered, having your own style is more than crucial.
It helps us identify ourselves
The process of finding our true self is painful. It’s easy to get lost, in the world where a lot of pieces are floating. You may have picked a wrong piece, positioned it as yourself, then found it got into the opposite direction. That happens. In fact, it happens a lot while we’re trying to identify our soul, while we’re trying to put ourselves all together, piece by piece. Don’t panick during the process. It’s a journey, if not life-long, that we all have to experience at least once. When you pick up an unfitting piece, think about why it doesn’t fit, what type is it, etc. Labeling and analysing the wrong piece can help you to find out who you really are.
By digging in the sea of pieces, each one with their own meaning and style, you can dismiss which style you hate, which one you think is disgusting, which one is okay doay. This process helps you eliminate the choices and leaves you with styles that would be more like you.
Style is a mirror. It reflects who you are by you presenting yourself, whether consciously or not. You want to make yourself presentable, easily recognized, then style does matter.
Sometimes our style may not be consistent. Maybe because we change, over time, be it character, values, or the way we act. Changing style is not a bad idea. It means that we have found our true self along the way and successfully modify it as our lifes change. It means we have grown, we have gained experience, we have slightly different personality, and that’s the meaning of life – learn through journey.
