hey everyone and welcome to top think today we're going to learn about the seven step process to
become good-looking now let's begin number one envision your image now before you start changing
your physical appearance it's really important to envision the kind of person that you want to be
imagine specific things about yourself that you want to improve maybe you're not a fan of your
clothes or you're tired of that same haircut that you've had for years whatever it is before you
take action set aside some time to plan ahead this is a step that very few people actually take when
it comes to physical appearance most choices are impulsive and spur the moment you see something
you like you imagine an impossible fantasy about how it's going to change your life and then you
buy it without thinking things through but you end up missing out on the best part of revamping your
physical appearance by planning out your image you do more than just figure out what you do and you
don't like you create an ideal that represents the person that you want to be this is where
inspiration can come in handy as long as you use it the right way many people browse social media
to get an idea of what they want to look like now that's not totally a bad thing these outlets can
show you all the interesting directions you can take your appearance but the problems start when
you try to mimic other people or you envision yourself turning into an exact copy of someone
you admire no matter how committed you are that's never going to happen but hey that's a good thing
improving your physical appearance isn't about trying to be someone else it's about highlighting
and showing off the person that you are in the best way that you can so yeah use inspiration as
a jumping-off point but make sure that your image always reflects your individuality number two
assessing strengths while planning out the things you want to change don't forget to recognize your
strengths what elements of your appearance do you like the most everyone should have
a favorite thing about themselves something that physically divides you from everyone else it could
be anything from distinct eyebrows to the weird shoes you like to wear the only qualification is
that it's something you genuinely enjoy don't just base your strengths off the features that other
people are drawn to your real strengths are the characteristics that you treasure the most this
unique feature usually becomes a core component of your physical charisma in other words it may
be the most memorable thing about your appearance so use it to your advantage don't try to hide it
from the world these features should act as a foundation to build your appearance around and
that way you're always emphasizing the things that you like most about your body your tastes
or your preferences let's say perhaps you have a defined jawline in this case strategically growing
some facial hair or applying the right types of makeup might just accentuate such a quality as
long as you highlight your individual strengths you'll feel much more confident and proud of your
appearance number three physical care taking care of your body is the most difficult and diverse
step to become better looking now I'm sure you've heard that you need to exercise regularly and eat
healthy food whenever you can not to mention getting enough sleep and drinking plenty of
water but the goal here isn't to impress everyone with how muscular you are know these superficial
details aren't automatically going to improve your appearance physical care is about taking
consistent steps to help you look as good as you feel that means that everyone is going to have a
different definition some people feel great when they're exercising all the time others
might find that schedule exhausting and painful neither strategy is right or wrong as long as
both of those people enjoy the way they look you should spend a portion of every day caring for
your body but much well that's completely up to you number four total hygiene this tip is pretty
universal I can't understate how important that proper hygiene is for your physical appearance
but it's not just about having sparkling white teeth or the silkiest hair it's about paying
attention to the little details so you can feel confident in your own skin just think about the
last time you went out and realized you forgot to put on deodorant mm-hmm were you paranoid that you
smelled like body odor the entire time now while you probably didn't smell nearly as bad as you
thought something as insignificant as an unwelcome smell can completely change your appearance a 2005
study tested this by measuring if odors affect people's perceptions of attractiveness and
personality it turns out smelling good convinced participants that people were more successful more
sociable and better looking but hygiene isn't just about keeping other people happy knowing
you have good hygiene relieves you of that stress and anxiety it'll be easier to feel confident and
secure which has an equally huge impact on your appearance number five personal style you don't
need the most trendy or expensive clothing to improve your style despite what you see
in the media these high-end brands don't make you good-looking the truth is that you look the best
when you're wearing clothes that represent who you are and what kind of person you want to be this is
probably a little bit different from the advice that most people give they'll say things like hey
wear clothes that show off your figure or give you more sex appeal but style isn't about wearing what
attracts other people's attention you should choose clothing that you enjoy wearing because
it reflects the person wearing them that should be the ultimate goal of anyone's personal style
you want to discover clothing that feels like you in other words your own happiness and confidence
are much more important than finding something that shows off your body now of course it isn't
always easy to feel happy with your choices many people buy they like but keep them stuffed in
their closet they stick to what's popular because well they just can't find the confidence to wear
what they want if this happens to you try to remember that your personal style is as good
as anyone elses hmm you might be worried about standing out but hey that's not a bad thing if
you have a unique look it means you found a way to separate yourself from the crowd you look like you
Hey and that's something to be proud of so how do you know what your personal style looks like well
it's helpful to base your clothing choices off of your personality your interests and your lifestyle
maybe you want to keep your clothes lights and athletic because sports are something that you're
passionate about or you might choose bright neon colors to match your bubbly personality the point
is to find the meaning behind your style what makes you choose one piece of clothing over
another how does a hat or a shirt reflect your priorities in life if you don't know
how to answer these questions don't worry no one expects you to know exactly who you are everyone
is a work in progress so focus on dressing like the version of you that you aspire to be as
long as you're making meaningful decisions well you're well on your way to crafting a personal
style number six decisive possession once you've started changing your appearance there's one big
decision left to make you've figured out your personal style you're happy with the shape of
your body you're paying attention to the little details but what's stopping your appearance from
regressing back to the way it was before step 6 is to take possession of the choices that you've made
decide right here and now to own your self-image what that means is you shouldn't feel embarrassed
when you wear clothes that you like in public it means you should stop wishing that you could
switch bodies with someone else take possession of your figure and your style these features should
be as important to you as your own name they're a part of who you are so you should embrace them by
looking anyway you want now unfortunately this is where people have the most trouble they do
the hard work to improve their appearance but they don't have the self-confidence to
represent their choices you might feel worried that it's too different from what's popular
or normal or maybe you're worried that others won't understand or appreciate the way you look
this kind of self-sabotage can leave you feeling consistently unsatisfied with your appearance but
you shouldn't be afraid to break social norms don't hesitate to demonstrate your own vision
for yourself because your vision matters far more than anyone elses number 7 adapting individuality
your appearance is going to change over time just like your interests or your personality
as you try new hobbies and meet new people your old style won't always reflect the most current
version of yourself that's why the last step to become better looking is to be receptive to
change every few years or after a major shift in your lifestyle reflect on your preferences
and priorities you may find that you're ready to characterize yourself in a different way you might
want your appearance to show a different side of your personality or you might discover new
passions and strengths that you never knew existed changes in appearance are especially common as
people get older for example your self-image will be completely different if you're in your
20s compared to your teenage years just because you like certain things then doesn't mean you
have to like those things now so don't cling to the person you saw in the mirror 5 or 10 years
ago instead find the best way to represent the person looking back at you right now hey thank you
