I do a lot of what I do to make a statement. Whether it’s a fancy outfit or a nice hairstyle, I know that I shouldn’t wear the same thing every day, or every day for a specific length of time. It’s a sign that I’m self-aware, but I’m constantly changing my hair and outfit to change how I feel.
For our show The Mascara Wars, I think that self-awareness is even more important than we think. We have the ability to create our own stories and to tell them to the world. That’s why it’s important to think of ourselves as the people that we are, not the people that we want to be. The people that we want to be, we need to think about ourselves as they are, not as we want to be.
In my own life, I started to notice a trend of people who seem to want a certain version of their personality/image reflected back at them. It wasn’t too long ago that I really liked to have a certain image of myself. I would always wear the same color to a job interview, or the same hairstyle at a party, or the same facial hair. I was very aware of what I looked like, but I was rarely aware of what I was wearing.
In some ways, this is a natural part of being human. Our image is one of our most important selves, and it is reflected in how we present ourselves to the world. In other ways its a bit of a curse because it can distort the reality of how other people see us. In my own life I have often found myself not being very aware of how I looked, or how others saw me, or how I was perceived by others.
I’m sure I’m guilty of a lot of these things. I have an image of myself that I believe others have a very hard time with, but because the image is so ingrained in my brain I can’t seem to shake it. It’s like some people’s faces are in my brain for life unless I use them as a weapon.
It’s a good thing for most of us because we are all so damn vain. But for some people, we are in fact more careful about our appearance than others. A lot of people I know have been told they look “so-so” and they don’t bother to change. They just go with their current image and what they think other people are thinking about them. So if you want to be seen as smart and confident, you have to avoid the temptation to change.
Just like when you were a kid and your mom gave you a book about how you were going to grow up to be a grownup, there is a similar thing with your face. If you want to look smart, you need to be careful how you change your face. It is better to change your features than your expression.
People are too trusting. There is this tendency to trust people who aren’t trustworthy, and then you have people who are so trusting that it causes you to be unable to trust them. That is why it is so important to have a look-a-like that makes everyone think you’re smart, confident, and a little bit dangerous.
I really feel like this is one of the most important things that you can do to help your social life. Every time you smile, laugh, or have a laugh you show that you can be a part of a group that will always be there to support you. When you’re in a group, it will be easy to tell other people that you’re part of the group and that you care about them.
I have a hard time with those words “to be a part of a group.” To me I feel like it’s something that the group should be just for the person, or for them alone. For me, I have a hard time with that because I have a very introverted personality. I don’t like to fit in with a group, especially not my friends.
