What is a one-sentence summary of the following article?
It may seem trite, but there's practical wisdom in this saying. If you approach a guy while putting up some false façade, you'll feel pressured to maintain that façade throughout your entire relationship. Since you're aiming for marriage, you'd have to hide your real self for the rest of your life to make things last. You'll need to create a positive first impression when searching for potential matches, of course. Start things off by demonstrating your best qualities rather than pretending to have qualities you don't actually have. Have some self-confidence. Every person has his or her own faults, but no one is entirely without merit, either. Valuing yourself is the easiest and surest way to encourage others to do the same. Body image is one aspect of self-esteem that many women struggle with. Instead of lamenting the physical features that seem less-than-perfect, try focusing on features that you do feel pleased about. By drawing attention to those features, you may feel more confident about your overall appearance, and that renewed sense of confidence may catch the attention of possible matches. Everyone has shortcomings, and being aware of your own problems can be a good thing. Instead of changing yourself in the hopes of making the right guy fall for you, though, you should implement changes for the purpose of improving your own life. By making changes for yourself, you'll become happier independently of any relationship. You'll be more satisfied with yourself and your life at any given time regardless of whether you're single or married. If you believe in God or some type of higher power, spend time praying about your desire to marry. Ask for guidance on your search and during your relationship with a possible future husband. Of course, you don't have to follow this piece of advice if you don't believe in any type of higher power. Individuals who try to build their lives on a foundation of faith should strive to build their future marriages on the same foundation, though.
Be true to yourself. Know your own value. Improve yourself for yourself. Pray for guidance.
