However, most people are not comfortable with smiling, especially the men. Some are afraid to flash their smiles because they are afraid they will appear weak, but this is a thing in the past. We all should learn to be comfortable with smiling. Aside from the health benefits, it has a far greater effect on yourself and to every person you meet. So start your day by giving yourself a smile. If needed, practice smiling. Sooner or later, you will begin to give a genuine and radiant smile with ease. And once you get the hang of it, you will then find it much easier to give a smile.
