Si je pouvais être tous les jours habillé comme en week-end, je le ferais.  Maintenant, il faut quand même se rendre compte que quand on travaille, on est obligé quand meme de faire un petit peu pour le regard des autres.

Ce look c'est surtout pour ne pas rentrer dans le moule, ne pas être comme tout le monde, être marginale de toute manière, c'est faire passer un message.

Chaque semaine, une femme, un homme, un couple et une famille nous dévoile leur choix de vie.
Ce soir, vous allez découvrir des personnes hors normes.
Ils ont un don, un physique ou une allure particulière.
Leur différence, ils en ont fait leur force.
Pour être bien dans leur peau, ils n'ont qu'un choix : ils s'assument, quitte a ne pas toujours être compris par les autres.

Simon Sinek is the author of “Start With Why”. He understands that we make decisions based on our emotional response more than our rational response. He gives great insight into how great leaders and organizations tap into this when they focus on their purpose and let that shine through in their products, the way they relate to customers, and how they do what they do. Come have breakfast with Simon and leave inspired and armed with the right arguments for why you should fight to keep your personal and organizational aspirations at the center of the conversation. We instantly recognized that Simon was talking about exactly what we found was the key to success amongst our clients – purpose – what it is, and why it works.
