Well yes you are right in a way- maintaining such an attitude can be quite a bit of hard work. But that attitude is possible, I know as I have done it.
You see when I was real young around the age of twelve I was often called ugly by a grandparent. It made me feel horrible about myself. But as I grew older and I began to ask myself questions- like- am I really that ugly? All I had was my grandfather's words to go by. One day I was looking in the mirror at myself while brushing my hair and I began to notice that though my eyes look dark colored further away like a muddy brown, that while close up they had a whole other appearance, and I realized I liked the color of my eyes. So I started to focus on things I see in myself that I find beautiful, or that I really liked. So I'd ask myself am I pretty or ugly? One day I answered, you know what I don't care. I don't think I am ugly. I am a nice person, whether ugly or not.
You know it is true what is said in a way, looks are not everything.
Come to find out later on people would at times instead call me beautiful. I had trouble with this, thought they were lying. Eventually I realized something about this too, I don't care.
Why? It matters what I think of myself, not any other. Someone could say you are ugly and be lying to be spiteful, or another could say you are pretty and be lying due to ulterior motives.
In the end what matters is my attitude about it.
And I chose and will continue to choose confidence. Not arrogance, but true confidence.
People will say people are attracted to confidence.
But if confident do not be confident for them, be confident for You. What I said to you is true. You are good looking, considerate, and most important? Worthy.
