About This Quote

To lose confidence in one’s body is to lose confidence in oneself. We can be confident without being confident in our bodies, but we cannot be confident without being confident in ourselves. If we have a problem with our bodies, we should fix it. This doesn’t mean accepting a diminished self-image, though.

We can work to make ourselves as physically perfect as possible, but never forget that it isn’t about our bodies. It is about being confident in ourselves as whole people.
