Going your own way the idea of looking good can go out the window.

Wear what you want to wear (i like very simple t-shirt and shorts), go bald if that's your thing, no more obsession with the way the face is looking or how well the beard is groomed it doesn't matter. I used to care a lot about my appearance because women would give me more attention and i was raised to care about pleasing them, everyone around me [early 20's] is trying their best to have the best haircut.. clothing.. muscles etc so they can get a girlfriend. It is all done with the wrong motivations, you should do these things for yourself not for the validation of someone else.

We could further into this with the concept of money and what is really essential, do most people gain money for themselves or so that they can provide for a family? Personally this is why i live a frugal life and don't regret it for a minute, only have to work a few hours every week and get to enjoy my time more.
