Simplified Meaning:

When you eat, focus on enjoying your food and satisfying your own tastes. It’s important to eat what makes you happy and healthy. For example, if you love spicy food, go ahead and enjoy it even if some people might not like it. However, when it comes to how you dress, consider what other people think and try to make a good impression. For instance, if you are going to a job interview, wearing clean and professional clothes can help you look more serious and capable. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be yourself—it’s about finding a balance between your own style and what’s appropriate for different situations. By eating to make yourself happy and dressing to make others comfortable, you can enjoy your life more fully and interact with people more positively.
