Shoeshine: The Mirror Of The Man
I judge a man by his shoeshine.
If he doesn't care enough about his appearance to keep his shoes shined, it makes me wonder how he takes care of other things in his life.
A good shoeshine is an outward expression of the inner soul.
It speaks to your ability to take care of the little things.
It reflects your image of yourself.
It's a matter of pride.
You can wear an expensive suit adorned with matching shirts and ties, but all the money you spent is wasted if your shoes do not reflect the same effort.
Because having shined shoes takes personal effort. They say more about you in two seconds than you can say in a 100-page resume.
They might be the first thing somebody notices about you when you enter a room, or when you cross your legs, or when you get up to leave.
But, believe me, they're noticed.
Take it from a shoeshine boy.

My first paying job was shining shoes. Allowances were scant and did not fulfill the social requirements of an up-and-coming 11-year-old.

Do you still clean your leather shoes with shoe polish and brushes?

Once a month I sit out in the garden surrounded by every ones leather boots and shoes. The girls like the riding boots up to military standards. I find it relaxing. Nice to see mud encrusted stuff transformed to pristine rows, Can I give a tip? With brown leather shoes an occasional polish using black polish will enhance the colour giving them a deeper, richer tone. It's something I find meditative ...my mind isn't on the shoes but wandering off down other tracks to a background of natures sounds and pleasant odours..

You can use an old washcloth or an old sock or cotton balls (that's what we used when I was in the Army).
Just make sure it's a cloth you won't need later on ;)
