Here are 10 nuggets of wisdom I’ve gathered from leading ladies that I’ve either heard speaking or have read their work. They inspire me and I hope they will inspire you too.Â
(Apologies I can’t remember who said what, I just remember what was said)
- Don’t try to be one of the boys – be yourself and you’ll enjoy the ride. Just borrow their confidence.
- Go where you can make the most impact. Focus on adding value.
- Relationships are key. Curate and cultivate them.
- Play to your strengths. It will give you energy.
- Talk to people because you don’t have all the answers. Never assume you do. If you do, it will be your downfall.
- When opportunity knocks on your door and you start to doubt yourself, say yes and then figure out how.
- Ask for what you want. No one can read your mind or your deepest desires and aspirations.
- Have a clearly defined goal then be persistent and tenacious in your efforts to achieve it.
- Find your own path – don’t try to fit a square peg into a round hole.
- Be a champion of other women – each one, lift one.
