We’ve all done it. You’re as guilty as me. We have all been standoffish towards people whom we don’t find pleasant to look at. Not interested to talk to them or hear what they have to say. Never judge a book by its cover. But we do, a lot… it’s human to judge. You can’t go through life not judging.

But where have these choices gotten us? We’ve potentially said no to new friendships, relationships, useful contact for the future, and a potential business venture. Closing yourself off from what could have been. Instead, we like to go talk to the people who are nice to look at and soon find out that they’re as thick as two short planks. 

There is no correlation between looks and intelligence. You can blame Hollywood movies for that stereotype. But how would your life look if you opened yourself up to talking to more people and finding out who they are? Instead of judging them based on what the genetic lottery has provided them. 

Sometimes it’s the people we overlook the most that later we end up needing the most. 

Until next time,
