“Looking good is important. I respect people who can make an attractive appearance and I try to look as nice as I can. Certainly you will go a lot farther in the world if you create a positive presentation. The problem comes when looking good becomes so important that you stop feeling good. A strong question to ask yourself when striving to look good is, “Am I doing this by my own choice, with a sense of joy, or am I motivated by fear or pressure? Am I proceeding from an internal “would,” or an external “should?” Who is running my life anyway? Can I look myself in the mirror and like not just what I see, but who I see?”
Alan Cohen, in “Why Your Life Sucks, and What You Can Do About It”
