Step
2: How To Make Yourself Look Like A Million Dollars
Nobody is perfect
in this world but that does not mean we cannot try to
look our best. There is absolutely nothing wrong in giving
nature a helping hand. Work on your image, work on your
profile,
and work on your appearance.
Many people
go by the philosophy, “this is me, whether you like it or
not it’s your problem. I am not going to change.” Well, nobody
is asking you to change, but what are you trying to do? Scare
people off?
Well, the fact
is, such statements are just a manifestation of your own insecurity.
We all have a certain degree of insecurity, some people more
than others. It is this insecurity that makes us sound gruff
and uncaring when it comes to improving our appearances.
Come on, what
are you afraid of? I’ll give you a tip. Whatever you are afraid
of, others are afraid of the same thing. In this world, most
people are neither for us nor against us. They are thinking
about themselves.
Presenting
oneself is an area that requires a lot of work, but surprisingly,
this is the one area which people tend to neglect the most.
Most of us have a laid back attitude when it comes to painting
a picture about ourselves. When it comes to presenting
yourself,
you really have some work to do.
If I knew you
on a more personal basis I would have loved to help you
to
chalk out a profile of yourself that would be as impressive
as possible. But of course, it is impossible to know you
on a one to one basis.
But you do
not have to worry because I have done a lot of study in
this
regard and once you follow my directions, you can indeed
come up with that dream profile.
The
Dream Profile
Preparing a
profile take time. It
is something
that
should be viewed in all seriousness. Please do not treat
the subject lightly. Imagine that you are preparing for
a job;
wouldn’t you spend a lot of time getting your resume ready?
Well, most
of us take up jobs for how long, four or five years? And
how
about a relationship, definitely we do not embark on a relationship
with the expectation that it will last for just a couple
of years.
We have to understand
that a relationship is really worth much more than a job,
because it is probably the most important decision in your
life. So now let us discuss ways in which you can spruce up
your profile.
You can, of
course, get a professional to do the job for you since
it saves you
the effort. You may have to dish out a small amount
but it could be worth it. There are many people who have
qualms
about including a picture in their profile. Well, I don’t
want to press the issue. It certainly does look better
to have
a picture in your profile, but due to privacy issues you
can refrain from including a picture. You will get A LOT
fewer replies or interactions though.
The
Face In The Mirror
Now, coming
to the picture as such, if you are posting a picture of
yourself, for heavens sake, post a decent picture. It
should be a recent one and please do not make any compromises
about the quality. Get a professional to do the job for
you
and with the digital cameras of today, they can do a very
impressive job.
At the same
time, do work on your expression before the photograph
is taken.
Stand in front of your mirror and try out various expressions
until you get something that you think is best for
you.
And remember that it has to be a picture of you smiling.
You should not have the classic hang dog expression, or
the “butter-will-not-melt-in-my-mouth
expression”. Smile, it costs you nothing and it really lights
up a person’s face.
Now, the first
thing that you should do is take out a pencil and paper
and
write down the raw details about yourself. By raw details,
I am referring to things like your age, your height
and your
weight.
This is the
skeleton of which we are going to work on. And when we
have
added enough flesh and blood to this backbone, why even you
will be impressed by your profile! But first let us steer
clear of certain pitfalls into which most people fall.
