Selling a product as a marketer can be as simple as pushing a unsatisfying self image upon an unsuspecting victim watching television.
From hair products to clothing and even hamburgers, its nearly effortless for a marketer to play to the weaknesses of a demographic. An ad littered with photo shopped 20 somethings having the time of their life is a sure fire way to cause the 40 year old stay at home mom to reassess her self image.
What they don’t teach you in marketing school is that it can be painstakingly simple to avoid all the blur and speed of modern day advertising.
This is accomplished by having a fundamental love for one’s self.
Self love is one of the most underrated aspects in modern society, from a perceived necessity to volunteer your love to others and even making your life goals in alignment with the expectations with others, love for one self is seemingly hard to come by.
I challenge you to look in the mirror and tell your naked self how much you love yourself.
Go ahead, do it.
The mere act of coming face to face with one’s self in a mirror is daunting to many people, and could cause untold levels of emotional unrest.
But do it anyway.
Cultivating that love for who you are will have so many positive implications, I don’t even know where to begin. Your life will go on steroids.
Best of all, you will find that the glamour of Hollywood, advertisements, and magazines, will fade to a point of a burning out candle.
Fuck everyone else before you learn to love yourself.
