11 More Things To Focus On Rather Than Your Outer Appearance
Kaeli Hearn

As I revisit this topic, it has never been more relevant in our society. Every day we are consumed by the notion of what beauty is and what it should look like. But, have you ever ventured into the headspace of focusing on elements of who you are rather than your outer appearance? Here are 11 more things to focus on other than your outer appearance.

1. Your laugh.

How cool is it that your laugh is not like any other laugh? Laugh and laugh often.


2. What inspires you.

What pushes you and inspires you? Channel that into your daily life and watch it reveal your inner beauty.

3. Your favorite things.

Is it baking? Photography? Sports? Take pride in what makes you happy and what makes you who you are today.


4. Your inner wisdom.

Yes, you have it. Go share it with those around you.

5. Your mind.

This is something I think we should all learn to appreciate a bit more. Our minds are capable of storing all this amazing, impactful information and using it for good — if we choose to do so.

6. Your joy.

What give you the most radiant joy? Is it friends, family, a certain place? Take pride in what gives you joy each day.


7. Your signature style.

What is yours? Fun, energetic, composed, intense, funny?

8. Your quirks.

I think this is another trait that you should own and love about yourself. It is the funny quirks that make you uniquely individualistic.

9. Your beliefs.

What you believe is foundational to who you are as a person.

10. Your aspirations.

Where you see your life going is a thing of beauty and passion.

11. Your distinct, unique personality.

You are uniquely beautiful. No one thinks, wants or needs the same things as you. When you find that inner beauty and start channeling that as opposed to the outer beauty, your life radically transforms.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
