Superficial Investments

It is not just that placing value on appearances, plastic surgery, expensive watches or cars bring no social value. They actually bring negative social value. Why? Because your social value to others comes about from you internal love, joy, confidence and value in yourself. If you love yourself and have fun with yourself, others will have fun with you and enjoy your company. If you are not good company to yourself you will not be good company to others.

If I place value in my external appearances, it is a statement to the world that I am not confident and valuable in myself. It is a way of trying to impress others. If you try to impress others it is the most unimpressive thing you can do. You only try to impress others when you do not impress yourself.

Ask yourself this, who would you like to invite to your party? Someone who is fun, happy, confident and a joy to be around, or someone who is going around trying to impress others with their plastic surgery, status or possessions?
