Pearl Necklaces for Brides

There is nothing more beautiful to complement a wedding dress than a stunning strand of pearls. This traditional wedding jewelry is more popular than ever, with brides using all styles of pearl jewelry to add that finishing touch to their bridal ensemble. In addition to looking fabulous, wearing a pearl necklace on your wedding day has historically been known as a good luck charm, promising to bring the marriage years of happiness.

When choosing a pearl necklace for your big day, there are four main issues to evaluate. These issues will ensure your necklace and any other accessories complement your dress and add to instead of diminish your beauty.

1.) Color: The color of the pearl is usually the most noticeable aspect of any pearl jewelry. Pearls come in colors ranging from traditional white and off-white to pink, black, grey, and even silver. When choosing the color of your pearl necklace, be sure to think of your skin tone and dress. The color should accentuate your outfit and make the ensemble complete, so choose wisely for a color that you can wear on your wedding day and for many days to come.


2.) Size: Pearls come in several different sizes and are either strung for a necklace in a similar range or in a graduated range. Choose a size of pearl that matches your proportions, as well as that of your dress. Size of the pearl directly affects another issue to keep in mind, the length of the strand.

3.) Length: Pearl necklaces are available in several lengths:

• Collar (12 - 13 inches)
• Choker (14 - 16 inches)
• Princess (17 - 19 inches)
• Matinee (20 - 25 inches)
• Opera (26 - 36 inches)
• Rope (over 37 inches)

The difference in length directly depends on the style of your dress. The most popular lengths of pearl necklaces are the princess length and the opera length. Avoid wearing the longer lengths of pearls over heavily beaded or decorated dresses, as the impact of the pearls may be lost. You may need to try on several lengths to see how each individual strand fits your body
4.) Additions: Many brides are choosing to forego the traditional strand of pearls and add diamonds or other gemstones to a necklace setting. This is a great idea if you have a preexisting pendant mount of heirloom gemstone you wish to include in your jewelry. Also, many brides are using an illusion or floating setting for a single or several pearls. This setting gives the pearl the appearance of floating weightlessly around the wearer's neck, giving a more modern feel to this traditional element.

Jewels for the Bride

Jewellery (spelled jewelry in American English) refers to ornamental devices worn by persons, typically made with gems and precious metals. Costume jewelry is made from less valuable materials. However, jewelry can and has been made out of almost every kind of material. Examples include bracelets, necklaces, rings, and earrings, as well as items like hair ornaments or body piercing jewelry. Jewelry, particularly when made with precious materials, is generally considered valuable and desirable. Some cultures have a practice of keeping large amounts of wealth stored in the form of jewelry. Jewelry can also be symbolic, as in the case of Christians wearing a crucifix in the form of jewelry, or, as is the case in many Western cultures, married people wearing a wedding ring. And what can symbolize love and, of course, the wedding ceremony more than a diamond?


Diamonds are graded by four characteristics: cut, carat (weight), clarity, and color. All four of these properties determine how much a diamond is worth.

Cut - What is the proportion of the diamond? Round brilliant diamonds are commonly cut with 58 facets. The better proportioned these facets are on the diamond, the more light will be reflected back to the viewer's eye. This is extremely important. When cut properly, the diamond will sparkle more. Diamond cuts are measured by the table percentage, so always ask for it. Cut also refers to the shape such as: round, pear, and oval.
Carat - How big is the diamond? Larger diamonds often cost more per carat due to their size. There are 100 points to a carat. Hence a 50 point diamond is 1/2 a carat. (There are 5 carats to a gram.)


Clarity - How clear is the stone? Clarity ranges from flawless (perfect) to I (included). Here is a summary:

Color: Diamond colors generally range from D - X for white and yellow diamonds. D is the whitest. Around S they become "Fancy" yellow Diamonds. One can also find green, pink, red, blue and brown diamonds - though these are usually irradiated.

Diamonds are often treated. If you are concerned about getting true value for your money, know what you are getting. Be sure to read the fine print.

Diamonds with inclusions are sometimes filled with glass to make them appear clearer. An inclusion is an imperfection internal to the diamond. Filler can be damaged by heat, ultrasonic cleaning, and by re-tipping. The filling does not repair the inclusion, it just makes it less visible. They can be painted to offset a yellow tinge. The paint wears off rather quickly.

, now that you have that precious stone, here are some tips as to how to take care of it. Diamonds are often thought to be unshatterable. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Diamonds are brittle: If you hit a diamond hard, they WILL crack or chip if mishandled. Don't wear your diamond when doing rough work.

Storage: Store diamonds separately. When stored with other jewelry, diamonds may scratch other jewelry (or each other).

Cleaning: The best method for cleaning is a jeweler's polishing cloth. Many jewelers will clean your diamond ring for free if you are making another purchase in the store.

Choosing Your Wedding Diamond

One activity that you will undoubtedly appreciate when preparing for your wedding ceremony is the wedding ring selection. Like most young girls, you have probably spent most of your life dreaming of the perfect diamond wedding ring. Hopefully, you and your fiancé have decided to shop for rings together, or you have informed him of what you like. You will wear the wedding ring for a significant amount of time and it only makes sense that it's something that you like. If your knowledge of diamond wedding rings is limited to size, it's a good idea that you obtain more information before you make your wedding ring selection.

Loose or Set
When most people think of a diamond wedding ring, they often think of a stone that is already set or mounted. You can actually buy a diamond only and choose a setting later. The intelligence in doing so is cost. When you shop for loose diamonds you will notice that diamonds are available in various sizes, including oval, round, and marquise. If you don't have a personal preference for a certain style, you might want to consider your hands. Certain styles complement certain types of hands. A good guide is to match the shape of the diamond to the hand. Do you have long, narrow fingers? An oval-shaped diamond or similar elongated style diamond for your wedding ring would probably work for you. Round diamonds are considered a good choice for most hands.
The Perfect Setting
Something else to consider when shopping for a wedding ring is the setting. Do you choose platinum or yellow or white gold? Yellow gold is the setting that most people choose for their wedding ring. It is typically less expensive than platinum or white gold. If you choose a yellow gold wedding ring, be careful that you don't choose a higher quality just because you think it is better. As the quality of yellow gold goes up, the softer the metal becomes. A wedding ring set in 24k gold will be less resilient to scratches than a ring that is set in 14k gold. Platinum is by far the most expensive and most durable of the trio. White gold is a good choice for a wedding ring setting if versatility is important to you. White gold tends to go with everything.
White diamonds are by far the most popular. Did you know that you could buy a pink diamond? Diamonds are available in other colors, but these are typically more expensive. Second to the classic white diamond is the yellow diamond. When shopping for your wedding ring you will actually find more of these than any other color of diamond.

Considering Cost
Your budget probably carries the most weight in your wedding ring selection. A wedding ring featuring a diamond can cost as little as $100 and as much as $1,000,000. In general, the amount of money you can expect to pay for a diamond wedding ring will vary according to the type of stone and the setting. The more carats a wedding ring has the more it will cost. Diamonds set in platinum will cost you the most, while you will spend very little on a wedding ring set in 14-carat gold. You can balance the cost by buying a wedding ring with a high number of carats and set in a less expensive setting

Expression of your personality

Wedding dresses are such an opportunity for any bride to show their unique sense of style and to really make a fashion statement. Gone are the days of the plain ‘meringue’ style wedding dresses with a little cute well-placed bow; now we are daring to be different!

In fact, one of the latest trends is to offer wedding dresses that can be used again. Not only is this a great idea from a budget point of view, but it is also reflective of the simple lines that are part of the modern trend in wedding dresses. Arguably, this fashion is due to the ever increasing age of first time brides as well as the large number of second weddings.

Wedding Dresses for the Winter Wedding

Whenever we think about wedding dresses, we automatically think of a warm, summer’s day, with a crisp, wafting white dress to match. However, there is a growing trend towards winter weddings. Winter wedding dresses may not be pure white and are often the preferred choice for second time brides.
Trends in winter wedding dresses include deep red colored dresses or dresses that include a large amount of black. Another great idea is to include a fur collar, or long fake fur coat. If you love a touch of luxury and you want something a little different, then winter wedding dresses may just be the thing for you!

Wedding Dresses for the Summer Wedding

The key to summer wedding dresses, this year, is color. Many wedding dresses are now using substantial amounts of colored fabric to add a classic touch to an otherwise traditional white or cream dress.

Weddings are becoming much more sophisticated; generally, brides will select a theme that they will maintain throughout all aspects of their wedding. Wedding dresses must, of course, fit into this theme and as such colors and accessories are vital. Popular, seasonal colors for wedding dresses include lilac, pink, blue and yellow. Often, brides will choose a half-color theme where the bodice is colored or the skirt is colored, but the other half of the dress is kept in a plain cream or white.
Subtle is the name of the game with modern wedding dresses.

Wedding Dresses – Standing Out From the Crowd

Today, wedding dresses are all different; no-one wants to look the same as the next bride and, naturally, brides go to extreme lengths to make sure that they stand out from the crowd. Of course everyone wants to do so in a classy and not trashy way! It seems that individually designed wedding dresses are the way of the future. By commissioning a made to measure dress you can make sure that it fits perfectly, is exactly what you want and above all, is unique.

Wedding dresses are an expression of your personality, so don’t hold back; let your imagination run wild!

Health Of Your Personality

"Our body is a well-set clock which keeps good time; but if it be too much, or indiscreetly, tampered with, the alarum runs down before the hour."—Bishop Hall.

One of the potent elements in personality is physical health. Not alone is it requisite for the power to perform the work that comes to our hands, but the man who radiates health creates an atmosphere which impresses his fellowmen favorably, and conduces to success in business. The strong, healthy-looking boy has a better chance of getting a job over the unhealthy-looking, unclean, cigarette fiend. The vigorous young woman has always first chance over the pallid, gum-chewing girl. The health habit is a habit to be cultivated. That eminent physiologist, Dr. James Royce, tells us that "Any function of the brain tends, within limits, to be performed with the more facility the more frequently it has been performed before. This is the law of habit. Its interpretation in terms of consciousness is, that any conscious process, which is of a type that has occurred before, tends to recur more readily, up to the point where the limit of training has been reached, and to displace rival conscious processes, according as. its type has frequently occurred. We speak a foreign language the more readily the oftener we have already spoken it.. We repeat a poem more easily the oftener we have already repeated it. A frequently recurring emotion is of a type such that we readily fall into that emotional condition."

And since all bodily habits have their origin in the brain, exactly the same reasoning applies to them. The first health habit to cultivate is cleanliness of the person in every detail. Keep the body clean, and it will be healthy. Learn to eat and drink aright ; practice what you learn, and you will be healthy. Study personal hygiene and you will be healthy. Practice physical culture and you will be healthy. Keep your body and its passions and desires under control, and you will be healthy. Lead regular lives and you will be healthy.

Attractive Personality - 3 Ways of Creating a Memorable Impression

It has always been our nature as humans to interact with our outside world. Little wonder our numerous gestures have led us to establishing various kinds and levels of interaction; with the least significant things and also things of high importance. We relate with water, plants and animals around us, even, with our non-living properties- our cell phones, television sets, laptops among others- though, they may seem less important to our lives. More interestingly, we relate with our fellow human beings. A lot of talking, playing are done together by us.

Therefore, I suppose I am not mistaken saying interactions form the greatest part of our lives. Why don't we then give our greatest attention to it, especially, with our interactions with humans? Regrettably, I have worked with some people and I wished never to try it again. It is not impossible we share the same story, anyway. Even if we don't, can you ever tell the impression you leave with those that work with you? Memorable or disgusting! I have come to realize that impression is not just about some good qualities you have, friend, it's about your total self. Read on!

The impression you create of yourself is defined by your personality. As Bob Conklin (1965, p.21) said, "People's reaction to you can be compared to tasting a new recipe. They react to you according to a total impression of your total personality." People's idea of you is distinct and blunt- it has been unconsciously developed in their minds on your summarized whole self. It is either they accept you or not (no intermediate). Then, creating an acceptable impression is building an impressive personality.

What then is personality, you would say? Personality is what I call your whole self. It is about everything that makes you up. It is characteristic of your attitudes, your actions and your feelings. How you are represented to the public says well about your personality. An attractive personality is not built by kind words or pleasant smiles; it is rather built from within. Excellent ways of creating memorable impressions are discussed below, practice them.

1. Improve Your Attitude
The probability that you create a good impression of yourself increases significantly when you have the right attitude towards yourself and more importantly towards others. Your personality projects your attitudes. Do you see yourself as someone to reckon with or a never-do-good? Do you also see yourself as friendly, caring, interesting etc? You are molded by your thoughts. Won't you be impressed being treated with respect, care, love, understanding by someone? You will, definitely! As a result, building an impressive personality has everything to do with the way you see others; because, your reaction to people is based on your attitude towards them. Little can be done to better your physical appearance, but, much rewarding things can be done to change your attitudes.

2. Intensify Your Actions
Indisputably, humans are judged by their actions. No one will know how nice and wonderful you are, if you refuse to act it out. Do you want to leave good impressions about yourself? Act right! Your actions communicate your thoughts to people, which in turn determine if you will be loved or otherwise. Right actions are as necessary as good attitudes. Beware; don't just act, act with enthusiasm.

3. Create Your Feelings
Feelings always result from actions. An athlete would only feel like running after his regular exercise. That is, if you don't act attractive, you can never feel attractive. It's a simple rule! Quite all human beings want to feel happy, successful, influential and accomplished. In fact, almost all humans' desires in life center on feelings. If however, we can't act it, we can't get it.

It would be unfair if I fail to warn you against the irritating effect of pride and moodiness. Always humble yourself and exercise good controls over your moods. Intelligent application of the above tips will surely yield desired results. Therefore, welcome to your world of remarkable influences.

Instructions


Step
1You need to have yourself, you should be clean and well groomed to start. You need to smile. A smile has several meanings. Let's face it, we are not attracted to someone that looks grumpy. We are more able to attract someone if we show them that we may be interested with a smile.

Step
2People like people that like them, as long as they are not obsessed. So, be confident, smile allot, and be interested in what the other person is saying. By doing this, you are flattering them, and learning allot. After you show interest in what they are saying, they will then become more interested in you. You must listen, and compliment them, just don't be phony, and do not over do it.

Step
3We like people that we can share interests with. Your first impression on someone will be a very strong one. Within the first few seconds of meeting someone a decision is made- do I like this person? Are they attractive? Believe it or not the person you are approaching for the first time knows within seconds if you are the lover type for them, the friend type, a relationship type, or what ever. So, when you are meeting someone, it is best if you mimic their body language for the first 10 seconds. Yes, stand how they stand for the first 10 seconds. If you use all of this, it will be a great benefit for you. You will attract more people, and learn allot about them. This article is not very long, because I am not going to waste time putting the "how it works" in.

How to Attract a Mate

Are you looking for someone to spend time with and build a relationship with? It takes work for most people to attract a mate. If you think you are attractive, confident, and a good catch, you will attract a mate more quickly. These simple steps will help you to attract a mate more easily.


Instructions


Step
1Smile. The first thing that many people notice about someone of the opposite sex is his or her smile. Don’t frown all the time--show off those pearly whites. When you smile, it shows you are happy and pleasant to be around. Smiling not only attracts the opposite sex, but makes you feel better about yourself as well.

Step
2Dress in a way that flatters your figure. You don’t want to attract a mate who only wants you for your body, but it’s not a bad thing to look good either. When you are dressed in a flattering way, you feel more confident about yourself. When you feel attractive, it is easier to get the attention of the member of the opposite sex.

Step
3Listen and talk. When he finally does approach you, listen to what he says. Don’t interrupt or cut him off. Nothing is a bigger turnoff than someone who wants to be the center of attention at all times. While it’s good to listen, be sure to offer your two cents as well. Talk about your dreams and desires. Don’t say what you think the other person wants to hear--say what you mean. Look into his or her eyes when talking.

Step
4Be confident. You will attract a mate more easily if you show that you are confident. Stand up straight with your head held high. Don’t walk around with your arms crossed because you don’t want to appear closed off.

Step
5Smell good. Be sure to shower and get cleaned up before going out. Spray a nice smelling perfume or cologne, but don’t overdo it. You want to attract the other person with your sweet smell, not drive him or her away because you smell too strong.

How to EASILY become more attractive

Don't complicate yourself by figuring out impressive ways to get the opposite sex's attention. Read these tips and easily become much more attractive.

Instructions


Step
1 Get in shape: Any guy can get any girl, yes, this is true. But, it doesn't help your game if your overweight or scrawny. This doesn't mean turn into a meathead muscle machine but get yourself into a routine, the internet is a huge resource to find out information about getting into the perfect shape. Hell, if you don't do it for the women, do it for yourself. Your body deserves to be treated correctly. Run, jog, swim, lift weights, watch what you eat, stop smoking cigs, don't drink as much, don't do drugs as much. A woman loves a man who is physically attractive, once again, your body isn't going to get you the girl, your brain and what you say is. But it will surely HELP. Hell, if you really need help, message me and I'll help you out.

Step
2 Get the correct amount of sleep: Doing so will not only improve the way you look, it will improve your memory and all other brain functions. In turn, making you wittier, funnier, cockier, WHATEVER. Also...it will keep you from getting sick. I can't tell you how many girls I've blown it with cause I was sick and gave it to them. Its such a turn off, both ways.

Step
3 Change your hairstyle: Go for something new, if it doesn't work, it'll freaking grow back. Don't go for the run of the mill buzz-cut or slicked hair. Go to the barber shop and look in a magazine and find something. Trust me, it'll work. Facial hair as well, grow out some sideburns, cut them off, grow a goatee, cut it off, go clean shaved, or try looking scruffy. You'll find something that works for you.

Step
4 Get some new clothes: As much as I don't like buying into the fashion world, girls do. So get some new outfits, even if it isn't your style, you'd be surprised what a couple new threads will do for your confidence and the ladies love it, even if you don't. Besides they will be on your floor soon enough.

Step
5 Educate yourself: Instead of spending 3 hours a day sitting in the PUA forums and reading new canned methods. Pick up a book, newspaper, or internet article and educate yourself. Women love smart men, thats a fact. You don't have to be an Einstein, I've heard countless guys whining "my life is boring, I don't have anything to talk about, blah blah blah". This is in your hands, you'll have plenty to talk about if you just read 3 books on psychology, history, science, current events, or whatever else you find intriguing. Reading not only furthers your knowledge, it enhances your vocabulary, which again you don't need to be Webster's dictionary, but eliminating "that sucks" and "cool..." and "nice..." and "kinda..." other countless boring words from your speech and replacing them with advanced words makes you more attractive. You can count on that. In addition, reading will further your ability to speak properly and aid in your grammar. Nobody likes to be around the guy that says "like" and "uhhh..." and other filler words every 15 seconds when he is speaking. You wanna be attractive? Intelligence is one quality EVERY SINGLE GIRL will list when asked about what they look for in a guy. Its not that hard, seriously.

Step
6 Mirror effective personalities: Now, don't be a mirror of effective personalities...but mirror their good qualities and add them to your arsenal. Whether its a T.V. character who has a good cocky/funny attitude or someone you meet who you just thought was an interesting person. Nobody on this Earth is a completely original person, everything we say and do is picked up by others, usually subconsciously. So be conscious of it, and you'll find great success. For example, I mirrored many of the qualities that a character named Dr. Cox on the T.V. Show Scrubs displays.

Step
7 Work on your manners: I have seen dozens upon dozens of random guys and even my friends blow it with a gorgeous girl because they didn't cover their mouth when they sneezed or coughed. Say Bless you, Thank you, Your welcome, Hold doors open for people, let someone walk in front of you instead of being the jerk who pushes through.
Instructions


There are dozens of common courtesies that many people just forget to do. At the end of the day, a girl wants a man she can be proud to be around, and one that will treat her with the respect she deserves. Don't lose your cocky attitude or whatever your gameplan is, but be a genuinely respectful person and it will surely pay off. Super way of show how classy you're.

Step
8Interesting General Facts: Learn interesting facts of all types. If you meet a girl from Alaska, "Did you know that the Alaskan coastline makes up more than half of the entire US coastline?" I met a woman from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil the other night and told her how much I loved the statue of Christ the Redeemer that sits atop the Corcovado Mountain and how beautiful the view is looking down into the city. She was absolutely stunned that I even knew that it was there, I didn't even have to tell her that I have never actually been there. She was too busy drowning in my words as I continued the conversation. Simple stuff like this will separate you from the other 100 guys she sees and meets that day.

How to Become More Attractive To The Opposite Sex

This how to will set you on the path to easy tips to make yourself more attractive to the opposite sex


Instructions


Step
1 Everyone has preconceived notions of what the opposite sex wants in a partner and ninety percent of what you think you know is just plain wrong. Hopefully we can clear that up today. Spring is in the air and its just natural to start thinking about dating more, or again. Seems like everyone is talking about change lately so lets see what we can do to make these changes for the better.

Step
2 The first thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is to look them in the eye and greet them with a smile. A smile will usually result in a smile being returned, which releases trust and feel good chemicals in the brain. Looking someone in the eyes links those feelings to you and gives you the edge you just might need to approach your target and gain a few minutes of their time to assess interest. This is a two way street. After conversing with them for a few minutes you may find your not as attracted to them as you first thought.

Step
3 The second thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is practice good grooming habits. Keep your hair neat and combed, your teeth brushed, your clothes cleaned. Nothing will put a person off quicker than someone who has body odor or soiled clothes

Step
4 The third thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is to be respectful. Often I will be walking down the street or over at a pal's house and hear someone refer to their partner by a derogatory label. Sure the partner might not say anything but on a subliminal level they do know you consider yourself apart from them and it drives a wedge between the two that may take years to spread, but it will happen. If your just meeting someone this is a deal breaker with a good potential partner. They will suddenly find somewhere else to be and go there quickly leaving you high and dry.

Step
5 The forth thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is to maintain good posture. Arch your back forward and sit your head right in the middle of you shoulders and then relax yourself until your comfortable and yet fully erect. You will appear taller and more assertive. Allow your arms to be relaxed and loose and put just the tiniest swagger in your walk and you will be noticed. You may not win over everyone in your path but you will be noticed by them.

Step
6 The fifth thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is to maintain a average weight for your body frame and height. I'm probably going to get flamed for this but facts are facts. Overweight people do not get as much action as the average person does. This is not simply because they are overweight. Being overweight is a huge drain on your personal resources and energy. Overweight people get tired easy because more of their natural energy is going to maintain the large body they have. Maintaining a healthy weight is as simple as eating good foods. If you have a weight problem then fast food is the biggest no no for you. Soft drinks with sugar are the second, and diet drinks are simply not safe to drink so look to your water fountain to quench your thirst.

Step
7 The sixth thing th at will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is just to simply talk when you have their attention. Depending on the personality of your target you either carry the conversation until they become comfortable enough with you to open up and talk back, or you listen and let them talk to you. You will learn a whole lot more about the person your attracted to by listening than you will by pontificating about yourself. Don't talk yourself out of a date, but don't be a wallflower either. While listening to someone talk, make sure they know your listening and actively let them know by nodding your head and making soft sounds of acknowledgment.

Step
8 The seventh thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is to learn to dance. One of the more popular dating experiences is gong dancing and if you can manage to not step on your dates toes, or splash their drink on their clothing you will be in the right ballpark. Dancing can set many moods. From fun to romantic to erotic, dancing covers it all. I would highly recommend you take some form of dancing lessons in a group format. Its going to cost a few dollars but it will be well worth it in the end.

Step
9 The eighth thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is never talk about your past partners in a negative way. The person on the other side of this conversation may start to thinking what you will be saying if the two of you get together and part ways in the future. This can be a deal killer when approaching a smart, sensitive partner who tends to think things through more so than to act impulsively.

Step
10 The ninth thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is to show that your interested, but do not be overbearing about it. Calling someone five times the next day after your first date will give them the wrong impression. Its OK to call once the next day and let them know you had a great time and your open to going out again. But after that end the call and wait a couple days before calling again. Don't go out of your way to avoid the person, but don't pester them either. Remember they are probably juggling a lot of things in life and have limited time so be considerate.

Step
11 The tenth thing that will make you more attractive to the opposite sex is to develop a great sense of humor. Humor is such an individualistic concept that this one is a little tricky. Go on a comedy club on a date or go see a comedy at the movie theater, or even rent some funny movies at the video store. Let your partner help pick the selections so you get an idea of what they think humor is or you might end up offending them.

Step
12 While these ten things may not make you a superstar in the dating arena, they certainly will not hurt you in any way, shape or form. Being attractive to the opposite sex is all in the attention to the small things, the details. Above all keep trying.

How To Develop An Attractive Personality

PERSONALITY is one of those indefinable things which cannot be compressed into a few words. When we think of certain individuals who have personality, we are at once made aware that no two personalities are alike or give us the same reaction. One impresses by charm, another by the sense of power, another by the grace of manner, another by the preeminence of intellect, and still another by the sense of great reserve force. But no personality has all of these, yet each is so clearly outlined as to constitute a kind of personal emphasis.

But, reduced to lowest terms, personality may be described as such an emphasis of particular qualities as makes the individual who has it distinct and conspicuous among his associates. That is the real basis of what we call vaguely personality. From this it is clear that personality may be developed, though there are persons who believe that there is no such thing. Yet it is clearly possible, by effort, and especially by association and observation, to gain such emphasis upon our strong points as to give us the distinction which we crave.

Personality, to be attractive, must have in it the element which makes it plain that the particular quality which creates it is not used against our fellowmen. We may admire a powerful personality, but if we feel that its power is used selfishly, we fear it while we admire it. We may admire a charming person, let us say a woman, but if we feel that the charm is a veil for deceitfulness we dislike her, and shun her, much though we admire the charm. The same thing is true of almost every specially-developed quality, and the reason is perfectly simple. We all know that superior people have a power which we have not ourselves, and we also know that this gives them the ability to damage us against our will, or to overwhelm us against our will, therefore we are always anxious to be sure that the personalities which we do admire are also ones which use their power benevolently and for the common good.

There is no sphere where this is more plainly indicated than in political life. The "boss" commands our admiration because of his obvious power. We cannot deny him, even though we give it grudgingly, the admiration which is due to a man who by any qualities can hold masses of his fellow-citizens under his own control. But we do not fear him the less on that account, and we use every endeavor possible to break that power when we can.

In social life there exists exactly the same feeling about social leaders, men or women. Here or there are such persons, whose leadership we cannot deny and cannot escape. But when we see that leadership used for selfish ends, and see the misuse of the confidence of many people, we use every resource of which we are possessed to prevent ourselves becoming helpless under its control. Social life has many complexities of this kind, and the necessary thing always is to be very sure before we yield ourselves, to see that we have not denuded ourselves of our strength of criticism, so that we can judge between what is desirable and what is undesirable. The social training of Raising Children, especially of boys and girls, in this respect, is very important, because they are so prone to take the surface indication without questioning as to the tendency.

When we get a little farther along, and observe the phenomena of personality in school or college, we find the same rule applying. Why is this girl popular, or that boy a favorite? Look carefully, and you will generally find first a cooperative sense, which makes the classmates feel the sense of fellowship, and next you will find a feeling of confidence and trust. Of course, a great deal of it is foolish and blind on the part of many. In fact, there are people who say that persons of the first rank never can be strictly "popular," and this is true. Persons of the first rank find themselves restricting their intercourse, because they choose a few superior persons to associate with rather than a great many inferior ones.

But the mainspring of such, popularity is confidence, and a sense of security. The personalities that do not repel, being distinctive, are those who inspire confidence, so that at the base the matter rests finally upon a moral foundation, whether we will it or not. It comes to that finally, whether it starts there at the beginning or at some other point.

An attractive personality is one which combines power with charm. We give due value to the force of a strong man, but we do not crave the prize-fighter attitude of power. We like strength, but we do not like to see it used as a brute uses it. We like all qualities of power, when these are so associated with grace as to make what is essentially a quality of beauty. There are few gifts and attainments more admired than those of the intellect. Men of mental power, who have wide erudition, whose knowledge is extensive, and whose power of expression is adequate and vigorous, have always had a great place, perhaps the greatest place, in the world's admiration. But if there is a repulsion greater than that which we have for a person who because of his own knowledge despises those who have less, or uses his knowledge and skill to put others into humiliation and shame, it would be hard to know what it would be. People instinctively shrink from such a person, and not infrequently it takes the form of active hatred. In young people there is nothing much more discreditable or shameless than that, having had superior opportunities to that of their parents, they display these to their parents' disadvantage. That is about the lowest exhibit of shamelessness possible. Yet it is not specially in-frequent.

In discussing the question of the development of attractive personality, we must begin with an active sympathy with our fellowmen. The word sympathy signifies "suffering with" people. When we can enter into the sorrows, the pains, the perplexities, or the anxieties, of other people, we have begun to push open the gate that leads to attractiveness.

It makes little difference what our relations in life are, or what our position in life is, we like to have ourselves under-stood and appreciated, and sympathy is welcome to us all. There are few people in this world who at some time or other do not actively need the sympathetic touch from somebody in whom they have faith and confidence. When they receive it that person becomes attractive in their eyes, no matter what the external condition may be. Whoever can touch successfully the deep strings of human feeling has already found the secret of attractiveness and of personality. It is the people who leave us cold, of whom we say they have no personality. But when we are warmed and encouraged and stimulated by companionship, even slight, we know that we have found a fellowship which we desire.

But there is a key even to sympathy which is not at first manifest. That key is called appreciation. Whenever we make an effort, no matter how modest the success is, we like to have the effort appreciated, by which we simply mean, given its real value. It does not mean we want to be unduly praised; but it does mean that we wish to feel that what we have done is properly appraised. Now, to make a just appreciation of the efforts of our fellow human beings, is one of the fine arts at its best; but in any case, it is the key to sympathetic understanding, and so to an attractive personality. People who have been helped in this way never forget it. Inwardly they cherish the casual kind word, the bright glance of cheer, and the warm glance of appreciation, and these form the basis of fresh effort and greater zeal, and they are the breeders of affection which never dies.

Here we strike a matter which seems at first remote from the subject of social advance, and success in life, and personal growth in power and charm, and that is the subject of bodily strength and health. Nobody can have a large fund of sympathy who is himself run down and dejected. You cannot enter into the life of other people, if your own life is warped and diseased. You cannot be a bearer of good tidings if the only reports you get from your own bodily machine are wails, and gestures of coming disaster. You need to be fresh, resilient, and abounding in vitality and force. Then you have something to give. Then you spread courage and enthusiasm. It is remarkable what a vigorous physical power, scintillating with vitality, does in a general company. Things look brighter, and the whole tone of the assembly changes, when such a person walks in. A wise woman once told the present writer that she spent days in bed, and denied herself to everybody, so that when she did come forth she gave the impression of strength and power, on the ground that she had no right to advertise her weaknesses and make other people bear her troubles.. That is the right attitude, but of course keeping health as a resource is a social duty of the highest order, and very different from keeping well merely because you don't want to be sick. You must be well, because only healthy people can function happily and help-fully in social life or any other.

In this circle of interests, out of which, therefore, an at-tractive personality emerges, we see how it starts from the physical basis, and graduates slowly up to the intellectual and moral realms, and finally radiates around in the life and activities of other people, in fact, it loses itself in the life of others. That is what the Great Teacher really meant, when he said that you must lose your life to save it. Then, and then only, you are attractive to other people, when you are inherently a part of them by your abounding power, your charm, your sympathy, your appreciation, and your fundamental spiritual integrity. That is, you have passed out of the stage of self-interest, to the stage of mutuality, and that you must do to make others feel that you are a part of themselves and they then love you as a part of themselves.

When we think of personality, we are likely to limit it to the social sphere, but it is hardly less effective in business or professional life, or, indeed, in almost any realm where human association counts for anything. It is thinkable that a hermit, living on a desert island alone, might desire to make himself the most attractive type of hermit possible, but it is hard to imagine what kind of a hermit that would be. The hermit idea is an unsocial idea. That is the reason why selfishness, and self-seeking, and covetousness, and greed, and every sort of activity that treads on the happiness and well being of others, all destroy attractiveness. It is because they are unsocial traits like the hermit traits. The greedy man is really alone, because he is thinking of others only to rob them. The self-seeking man or woman is unattractive, because he is essentially hermit in thought, thinking of himself or herself alone. The hermit idea, whether it is in the social, business, or intellectual sphere, means death to attractiveness, because it is unsocial, and makes fellow-ship impossible. There are many people who wonder why they are not attractive, who can, by a little self-study, easily find the cause; they are really hermits, though they live in the midst of thousands.

"Livable and Lovable" is a good motto for all who wish to become attractive to their associates. And if to these there can be added decision of character or intellectual grace and power, or distinction in manner, we need not have every grace, but only some one, highly developed, which rests upon a deep and unselfish sympathy with those around us. "Be pitiful," said Ian Maclaren, "every man is fighting a hard battle." That is the key-note, because, through the gate of understanding and kinship of feeling, we enter into the inner chamber of other hearts, and find ourselves not only loving, but beloved.
