In the Instagram clip, Mr. Wonderful explained that having self-confidence is important. He shared that people would come up to him and ask him why he wouldn't get some hair. According to the Shark Tank star, his look is also his brand. Kevin encouraged others to practice self-confidence as well. He said:

"You know I actually don't have a problem with this story because I have trademarked the dome of desire here. I have done a great job of that and at the end of the day I just love the way I look."

The caption of the video stated how Kevin viewed himself. It mentioned:

"People keep telling me I should get hair. Why? This look is my brand! I’ve trademarked it—the Dome of Desire. Confidence is everything, and I’ve mastered it. If you don’t love how you look, how do you expect anyone else to?"

In another clip posted to O'Leary's LinkedIn account in 2024, the Shark Tank investor highlighted that presenting yourself in front of people with a strong faith in your capabilities leaves a lasting impression. He stated that it was mandatory, especially for college students, to polish their skills and have a secure belief in themselves. The caption stated:

"Confidence is everything, and you're presenting yourself as soon as you walk into the room. I'm a big believer that we should be equipping our college students with more of of these real world truths. It matters!"

Mr. Wonderful has also talked about learning from failures, which makes an individual realize their strengths. Facing rejection and failure leads to a path toward success by helping a person improve and learn from their mistakes. Kevin's July 2024 Instagram post was captioned as:

"If you don’t know how to fail, you’ll never learn how to succeed. Hitting rock bottom with grace and learning what you need to do better next time is an art form that almost every successful person has mastered. There will always be rejections, bad ideas, and mistakes. It’s what you do AFTER that matters."
