Emails cost money to send. The money goes towards some good cause (maybe even towards internet infrastructure).

lol, yeah. Partly because at my workplace jeans & t-shirts are common, and repping the employer is seen by some as "being a kiss-ass".

Start with "How to fail...", then "Win Bigly", then "Loserthink". "How to fail..." is the most important IMHO.

E.g.: I'm a jeans & t-shirt kinda guy. However, I now dress a little more formally (business casual) because it leads to better outcomes. I've not gotten around to wearing suits even though that would be even better.

A little more strategic: I usually wear at least one item of clothing with my employer's logo visible on it. (Gives off a "corporate citizen" vibe.) A far cry from the recent past when I'd carry a laptop-bag with my ex-employer's (and a competitor of my current employer's) logo on it.

This comment is pure gold.

I found Scott Adams' recent books and Daniel Kahneman's work profoundly influential in changing my "observed personality" (i.e. the psychology I project to the world), and making me an order of magnitude more effective in dealing with work issues/co-workers.

Please share a few books (or perhaps authors/youtubers) that you learned from. Thank you.
