Since we concentrate so very much on appearance in western societies, why not let young people know that personal power is the most valuable asset they possess? This power can be in terms of physical strength and fitness no matter a person’s size, using one’s brain power to excel at school and in a chosen career, or through strength of character—just being a flat-out decent person.

It seems to me that the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty and their Self-Esteem Fund is designed to help with the concept of personal power.
