First you fix your inner self and then your outer self.

The inner dimensions of Islaah is so vast, that it will take you ages to overcome that.. The outer apparent sunans are easier to do, hence one should not be devoid of that which is easy simply because one is in persuit of that which is difficult. EVEN if you are struggling with your inner struggle, be firm on your outer sunnahs... Inshallah one will be rewarded with it.

It is a deception of Shaytaan that since I am still struggling with my akhlaq, I do not need to give much importance to my appearance. Those aspects which become the shi'ar of deen should be hastened towards, even if one is yet void of the spirituality of it. According to Hanafi Madhab atleast, beard is wajib, i.e obligatory. We wouldnt be lineant on our Witr salah simply because our Islah is not made on the inside.

Every aspect of deen carries its importance and should be adhered to in their level of importance. Just like the inner is the spirit of deen, so are these outer sunnahs..They ALSO are full of ruhaaniyat.. We ought not be void of either..
