I disagree pretty much completely with the o p. The big determining factor in success, whether that be success in employment, personal relationships, or whatever, is self confidence. If one lacks self-confidence, all that stuff in the OP applies. That is true regardless of the person's physical attractiveness.

With that said, I will grant it is probably a little bit easier for an attractive person to maintain their self confidence. There are going to be more ego-boosts for an attractive person, and that's certainly helpful.

I don't get what being self confident does for one outside of feeling good about themselves. I mean even if you think highly of yourself that doesn't mean other people will.

Self confidence goes a long way...if Marc Anthony spent his whole life sulking about being unattractive he would have never made it being rich and famous which in turn helped date and marry Super models and actresses. Plenty of self confident beautiful people never make it either so Luck plays a part...but whether you are a Genetically gifted Chris Hemsworth looking guy or a guy in other end  like Adam Driver being self confident can only help your possibilities.
