Teamwork is not always going to be split equally, and being able to work on a team without competing with your peers is an important skill to have. If you're that good, the other things you do independently will be seen, and over time it will be obvious that you're a winner.

Owning your style, however, is much more about your attitude than it is about whatโs on your back. But donโt underestimate the transformational possibilities that getting dressed can afford you.
