Looks Vs. Ideas

The blog topic for this week is: The looks and clothing of a person are more important than having good ideas to succeed.  Do I agree or disagree?

I definitely disagree. The looks and clothing of a person don’t define a person success at all. There are some ugly people who don’t know how to dress that have made it very far in the world. They are a huge success, make lots of money, are very well know, but yet they still wear polka dot shorts and crocs. Having good looks and good clothing and having a sense of fashion may help people out in the real world a little bit by attracting other people, possible people that could help with what they’re doing and such, but having great ideas is definitely more important. Having good looks might attract more people and let you make more connections that would help you out in for example, a business, but having great ideas would get you a lot of attention as well and help you make connections based on your work, not your physical looks.

If someone had no great ideas, were dumb as can be, but looked great and had great clothes as well as a good sense of fashion, they would still not be successful. It does not matter how many people they know, or how many connections in the real world they have made, because they can’t really do much else other than modeling and just looking good. They cant think what is better for them and would be controlled by someone their entire life.              Someone who is smart and has great ideas can soar above the rest making innovations, and being creative doing things people have not done before. Some great innovative creative thinkers with great ideas are the most successful, rich, and well known people out in the world today. Steve Jobs for example, he just passed away about a year ago, but he was not a very handsome man. He was a great smart creative thinker. That is what made him so successful, his creativity and innovation that created all these different types of gadgets like the iPhones, and   and the macbook laptops, and all these different things. He created the macintosh operating system! Okay well he didn’t create it, he wasn’t that smart, but he did get the idea and create it in his mind, which the then was able to hire programmers to do it for him, but the idea still started from him.

Another great successful person with great ideas is Bill Gates. This man I’m sure everyone here has heard of. He is arguably the most successful person in America. He is if not the richest, one of the richest people in the United States now. He created the windows operating system and he gets so much money, that he gains over $1000 per minute. That is how much money he has. This all started with the great idea of windows operating system. Now it’s so widely used everywhere. This blog itself is typed on a windows 7 laptop.

These successful, rich, and incredibly well known people didn’t get to where they are now by having good looks and wearing nice clothes. They got that after they became rich and could afford nice clothes and plastic surgery. These people got to where they are because of their knowledge and creativity and good ideas. Good ideas are way more important than having good looks or wearing nice clothes to become successful for sure.
