    Just Do It!

    Last night, my home town hosted "Molley's Revenge" as part of it's Summer Concert in the Park series. What a perfect time to head out in my casual kilt attire (SW light weight Gordon, black boots, black day sporran, casual black belt and UnderArmor T-shirt). I know, I should have taken a picture to post...but I didn't. Anyway, that's not the point.

    Over 1,000 people listening to celtic music and I was the only one in a kilt...not even the band members were wearing kilts. Lets just say, I stuck out like a sore thumb. I got a lot of looks, a lot of thumbs up and compliments. Went grocery shopping after the concert and no one said anything about the kilt. They asked about my tatoos...but totally ignored the kilt (strange?).

    My point is, just do it. Put on your kilt and go. I wear my kilts (4 and counting) a lot and I've never regretted it, never been in a "bad situatiuon" or had a comment thrown my way that I couldn't handle.

    So, my question for you is... what are you waiting for? Just do it!!

    -Tim

    I totally agree, Tim. Just do it. That's how you build confidence to the point that wearing a kilt publicly is as natural as wearing a pair of pants.
