Posture and Personal Appearance

How a gentleman carries himself in public matters...

As I have previously written, it matters how a gentleman treats those around him. However, how a gentleman treats himself is equally important. Think of any gentleman that may come to your mind, and you will likely identify two traits; they take pride in their appearance and they display good posture.

Let’s cover one’s appearance first. This is not about vanity or putting yourself above others. It’s about the positive impact you can have on yourself and others. Granted, there will be times when you must suddenly leave your home in work clothes or in a less than polished manner. But for the majority of the time, you likely have the time to put yourself together a more presentable fashion.
