You shouldnt judge a book by its cover nor a man by his appearance, but lets face the harshness of reality. We all do it, if not all the time, at least some time or even most of the time.

Your job, relationship and even happiness are influenced by the way you look and how you carry yourself. While this is an unfair statement, it is the truth.
