It's not vanity, because if you look weird, it will distract from what your trying to do. If you look as good as you can, people will be able to pay attention to what your actually saying.
Tina FeyโHow do you juggle it all?โ people constantly ask me, with an accusatory look in their eyes. โYouโre screwing it all up, arenโt you?โ their eyes say. My standard answer is that I have the same struggle as any working parent but with the good fortune to be working at my dream job. Or sometimes I just hand them a juicy red apple Iโve poisoned in my working-mother witch cauldron and fly away.
Tina FeyDonโt waste your energy trying to educate or change opinions; go over, under, through, and opinions will change organically when youโre the boss. Or they wonโt. Who cares? Do your thing, and donโt care if they like it.
