Joshua is my nephew and he is clearly rocking the heck out of those Joe Boxers! Now this photo happens to be taken in my parents house, but no matter.
Joshua could be standing in the middle of Times Square and he'd probably be just as comfortable in his boxers.
Why?
Because he doesn't know better. He hasn't grown up yet. He's not mature and sophisticated like we are...He doesn't yet know that underwear is best suited to stay underneath your clothes rather than an alternative TO clothes.
If you ask me I think we could all be a little more like Joshua.
Now of course I'm not suggesting that we all parade around in public in our underwear- although for some of us that might be a good exercise in doing something a little crazy and unexpected. (caveat: if you decide to do this I did NOT tell you to and I will NOT bail you out of jail.)
What I am suggesting, however, is that we should learn to be a little more comfortable in our own skin.
What if the purpose of your business was to have fun? What if you were surrounded with people that were 100% okay with just being themselves? What if we expected to laugh until our face hurt every time we went to see the doctor. Or our auto mechanic. Or our attorney.
What if people didn't take themselves so seriously? What if we stopped trying to look professional and instead decided to just be real.
And how would it affect our day if we stood in front of the mirror every morning sporting a pair of really cool boxers and said to ourselves, "Dang I look cool!"
We get one shot at this thing called Life. One shot.
