The Gap Between Education & Career

No matter how well crafted your image, realise that it only exists to serve those with a high school mentality. Your peers in business have moved beyond the visual system of measurement, and while able to observe a well presented image, this is not what gets you noticed. This inbalance leads to some confusion for your early 20s. “My image is made, I am cool, but why don’t I have what I want yet?”

To employers, and the gatekeepers of social mobility; the older generations… Your attraction is your potential, desire & unique talent. Now what separates you from everyone else is more important than what makes you the same as everyone else.

Your identity will become a mix of who you always were & who you want to be. How much of that you choose to display publicly will depend on your audience. You can’t please all of the people all of the time. Find your passion, become good at it & accept that not everyone will agree. On that journey you will find inspiration, happiness & fulfilment.
