Visible Beauty on the Inside and Outside
Beautiful is beautiful! There's no other way to put it. You can say that beauty and the desire for it is universal and intrinsic. Everyone wants to be beautiful and ever since the dawn of time (or whenever capitalism began), business men and marketers have all used that want to get ahead in the game, making millions if not billions along the way. It's a billion dollar business and I think everyone knows and agrees with this.Looking at all the beautiful people you're seeing on movies and television right now, we all want to be them. Well, probably not all of them as there are the occasional hiccups that you see on screen that arguably might not deserve to be there for one reason or another. But the point is, this is a marketing ploy yet again. It sends the message that being beautiful equals being popular, loved, admired and universally liked for lack of a better term.Sure, it may not be an absolute rule of law but like it or not, that is how people see it and it's been like that forever. It's a symbiotic relationship that the beautiful people on screen have with the businessmen, infomercials and tele-marketers promoting their beauty products. Like I said, this is a selling point directed towards the masses, the regular people. It aims to tell us 'Hey look at us, we're living the life. You want to be like us? Then pay attention because these are the products you need to buy so you'll look half as good as we do. Do it now and stop feeling so bad about yourselves.' in a subtle manner of course.The need to be beautiful is no doubt the root of most commercials and ads that you can see everywhere nowadays, as before. The constant attempt to cater to and innovate on questions of how to be beautiful and how to stay beautiful keep fueling many of today's businesses. And by the way, this is not to say there's anything wrong with that but merely a point out that this is reality and this is what's going on for better or worse. There are definitely many advantages to this type of system. For one, everything that you need and even want tends to become a lot more accessible.These are all true and affirmed statements. No one can deny any of this at this point and no one cares to. Everyone knows that this is the world we live in, even children. And we like it. We like to look beautiful or at least presentable to society as I'd like to put it. There's certainly nothing wrong with that. The only advise that I'd like to point out is that, while it is a universally accepted truth that selling external beauty is a way of living, being beautiful inside is it's counterpart that should not be left behind. That is certainly something that cannot be sold. It's something that is learned and acquired and depends on you and how you do it. It depends on the people you surround yourself with too.I am still optimistic that after all this, visible beauty on the inside still trumps visible beauty on the outside. I add visible to both of them because we can see beauty whether it's the person's character and kindness that attracts us to them or how stunning they look on the outside that simply draws us in. That's the whole point of us noticing them in the first place, because they're all visible, whatever form they're in. You can say that visible beauty on the inside, while more important, also needs more work to gain and maintain. That's a whole 'nother topic, one for the books. As for visible beauty on the outside, that's something we can work on right now with the help of those pesky infomercials and television ads.
How to Be One of the Most Beautiful Women in the World
Some say beauty is only skin deep. Some say that everyone is beautiful because beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. As women, we are taught the picture of beauty lies in the fashion magazines, on the television screen, on the billboards, and even on the runway. Over the years, I thought of myself as a cute woman, not ugly but not beautiful. Over my wise thirty years, I have come to understand that to be pretty or fine is one thing but beauty is achievable by any woman with the right lifestyle. Beauty is the combination of physical upkeep and inner growth that showcases a beautiful mind, body, and soul. Let me offer you some tips on how to be the most beautiful you that you can be.#1 Accept that consistency is the key.
Let go of the shortcuts that our society offers to obtain beauty. Come to terms with the fact that we can't jump into a human sized microwave and come out the most beautiful woman that we were created to be. With shortcuts we become our own beautiful reconstruction instead of the God-given beauty that we were born with. Life is a process and so is the beauty of life.#2 Become best friends with the idea of discipline.
The highest paid athletes are the ones who put blood, sweat, and tears into their repetitions. They practice. Practice some more and practice some more. The greatest musicians eat, sleep, and practice what they love. These are not special people that have special traits of discipline. These are people that decide to be the best by finding what works for them and then doing it over and over until it becomes them. Without the practice of discipline a beautiful and healthy body is unlikely. Without the disciplines of daily upkeep and maintenance of our bodies and our minds, we never achieve that place that we dream of. The results we seek showcase themselves after consistent application. Beautiful skin, hair, bodies, and attitudes are merely the results of continuous care and action.#3 Be patient as you find what works for you.
Some people meditate and pray early in the morning and some late at night. Some women continue on the search for that perfect skin care solution, makeup line, and hair care regiment until they find what works for them. Some give up and some give up before they start. There are so many options because there are so many different people in the world with all types of personalities, skin, hair, and nail textures, and body compositions. You must accept this and keep searching until you find what is for you. It took me thirty years to find the best way for my hair, skin, and nails to be beautiful. I kid you not. Now, with consistency I am pleased with my appearance and walk with an attitude of uniqueness because I found what works for me.#4 Don't reinvent the wheel but make it your own.
To each their own. That's what I was taught. Through my younger years, I frustrated myself to no resolve by trying to be someone else. Then on the other extreme when I decided to embrace my individuality I tried to change the basics. Either way my only result was frustration and poor results. We all have to apply the basics of health in our minds, bodies, and souls. It's inevitable. We all have to eat. We all have to exercise. We all have to consistently maintain an upkeep schedule. We all have to take control of our thoughts and emotions daily. We are different yet the same. We put on our pantyhose the same way. We just choose to wear them with different ensembles. Maintaining your beauty requires your own routine that must involve the basics.#5 Learn to give yourself a break!
First, how can any woman be beautiful when she's stressed out all the time? People not only see beauty but they hear it in your speech and in your walk. They see it in your interaction with others. It's not just how you look but so much more than that. So, give yourself a break and just be. Keep applying the principles and keep embarking upon your purpose in life. The combination of both will reflect your inner beauty which will catapult your motivation to maintain your outer beauty. They all work together. What woman is more beautiful than the one who has a wonderful balance of her total being's togetherness? Each puzzle piece is needed to complete the beautiful picture.
