When personality faults are uncovered, most people find that they have some faults which belong in the class of physical deficiencies. Some of these cannot be remedied. No one, for example, can change from being a short man to a tall one. A wise person, of course, will not become unduly concerned with physical characteristics, which he can’t do anything about. It is true that a tall, broad-shouldered, heavily-muscled man with curly black hair and even features may enjoy a certain initial advantage over somebody not as generously endowed by nature. But this advantage is short-lived if his personality is not a good one. History has proved time after time that some of the most influential men have lacked those physical attributes that most people admire. A man who is positively homely may be more magnetic than a characterless Adonis. Physical deficiencies can be sublimated by cultivating other attractive traits, such as poise, tact, conversational skill. Alertness, and general enthusiasm. On the other hand, a man need not accept his facial features and physical endowments with a fatalistic and defeated spirit. o A poor complexion, for example, can often be improved through better diet and exercise o Teeth can be straightened by an orthodontist o Eyes cured of watering, and so on. The way we talk, the way we handle ourselves, and the way we talk are there other important elements in the total impression we make on others. A private session before a full length mirror will reveal most faults of stance and poise. Gesture are sometimes a liability because of their awkwardness, futility of frequency; they, too are worthy of critical inspection. Uncorrected , they will continue to drive away associates and customers. A well-pitched voice and good speech habits are assets to any man. Fundamental to every elements of physical appearance is a man’s state of health. o Good healthy radiates in his eyes, his voice, and his muscular movements. o Conversely, a lack of muscular tone and vitality, even though short of ill health, conveys a subtle air of languor or perhaps an ill-concealed irritability to those forming impressions of what we are like. o Take care of your health if you want an attractive personality.
