Okay let's start from the inside first...
1. Obtain as much education as possible
2. Do your best in school
people look up to smart and active people in school
3. Don't be afraid to ask for help from teachers and other students.
4. Get involve in extra curricular activity such as sports teams, plays, clubs, service groups, etc.
Anything you can do to help yourdelf learn and grow in ways that will make you more interesting.
5. Read!
Read good books, classic literature, how-to books, and books that discuss hard questions like, What is the purpose of life? What is freedom? What is most important in life? etc. Always have a book you are reading. Take it with you everywhere. You don't need to read it if other things are going on, but if there is down time, waiting around for something... then read. Fill your mind and heart with good things and great ideas.
6. Remember, It's not about how you look on the outside.
Work on the outside
1. Keep up on the personal hygiene. No one likes to be around a person who smells bad, or looks unclean.
2.Brush your teeth at least morning and night. It is okay to carry a toothbrush and toothpaste to school. You can brush after lunch and snacks to maintain a bright smile and fresh breath.
3. Wear antiperspirant/deodorant to keep you fresh smelling all day long. Shower again after sweating hard.
4.Wash your hair regularly - every third day at least.
5. Wear clean socks and underwear every day. If you don't want it on your nose you don't want to wear it.
6. Make sure the clothes you wear are clean too. Now to be honest most of your clothes can be worn a few times before being washed. But of course you don't want to wear the same thing day after day even if it is clean. Pants can be worn 5-10 times if you keep them clean. Pants are not as noticeable so you can wear them a couple of days then retire them to the closet for a few days then wear them again before washing them - AS LONG AS THEY ARE CLEAN.
7. Make sure the clothes you wear are modest.
8.Makeup. Keep it simple. Don't pack it on. Of course you want to minimize any flaws and accentuate your best features. But if it looks too made up, fake, extreme or distracting it makes you look fake. If you want people to think you are real, then be real and look real.
9. Most importantly just be happy to be you. You are a beautiful human being with many unique gifts and talents. Develop those gifts and talents and you will have much to offer.
