“We are at our sexiest when we feel the most confident. We are at our least attractive when we are sure of our inadequacies and practically cave in on ourselves to conceal them… We all handicap ourselves with insecurity, and it’s up to us to reset the self-worth scale and alter the message we sound out into the world… So how do we remind ourselves of our fabulousness without letting our self-doubt or the criticism of others drag us down? Triggers. We wear heels. We get waxed. We do things that make us attractive to ourselves and, therefore, able to allow others to do the same. And they work… Confidence is a state of mind, but sometimes we need to give ourselves permission to realize it. There is nothing wrong with embracing the tools that allow us to get there; heels, bikini waxes, whatever. As long as we’re aware of the fact that we are worth the same with or without these tools…”

- Olivia Wilde

To me this quote is pretty much summarizing our society. Our society has brained washed us into thinking we have to always look the best, and have the best. In society women are suppose to be skinny, white teeth, clear face, perfect hair, and they are suppose to wear designer clothing. In order to be happy with life, you have to be happy with yourself. Confidence is the key in succeeding in life. With it, you can accomplish anything, and without it, you won’t. You don’t have to wear make-up, get your teeth whitened, or get your body waxed to feel beautiful. You are beautiful no matter what people think or say.
