You've been around long enough to know that you don't bring a knife to a gun fight. The same thing applies to anything and everything you do in life. You use the right tool for the right job. In this case, the right tool is a tool you wear just about everyday. Your Shoes!
That's right, your shoes. Are you wearing the right shoe for the right job? An uncomfortable shoe will be one of the first things you feel at the beginning of the day and the last thing you feel at night. An uncomfortable pair of shoes will do nothing but drag you and your attitude down. So why suffer all day long with a bad pair of shoes? Why make other suffer right along with you? Eventually, your frustration with those shoes will come shining through.
I understand the illogical logic that sometimes a bad pair of shoes just look good and to look good you need to suffer a little bit. If you absolutely positively have to wear an ill-fitting pair of shoes limit your time in them.
What I am saying is if you look good and FEEL good looking good then by all means keep on keeping on. However, when you don't FEEL good then by all means go out and get yourself the right tool.
I do invite you to join the conversation and tell me what you think about any of the postings so far.
Thank you,
