Trivia question of the day. Let me preface this with a statement. I believe each individual is their own brand name. For instance, you know a Tide box is orange. Tony the Tiger is on a box of Frosted Flakes. So whatever you are trying to market you actually become the billboard for. Now let me ask this question…
Why does your hairstylist’s hair always look a mess (besides Marcel)? Why do manicurist nails look a mess? Ok nails I can understand because you’re always doing someone’s nails, but what about those toes? Why does my optometrist wear glasses? If you can’t see the letter “E” why do you expect me to? Why does my dentist have crooked yellow teeth? Can’t you operate on yourself for free? Aren’t you like a walking billboard? Would I really want to get my work done from someone who doesn’t first work on themselves?
In a broader scheme of things isn’t this like us as Christians? We want to tell someone to get their teeth fixed before we work on ours. We want to remove the splinter from someone else’s eye before we remove the plank from ours. Nowadays everything is a lesson for me. I learned that I need to work on being the best that God has called me to be and let my light shine first.
