Life is not a PROBLEM to be solved, but a reality to be EXPERIENCED. The only way to do great work is to love what you do. Believe you can, and you're halfway there.
Women make up a large part of the American workforce. Where would we be without their ingenuity and dedication? Maybe it's time to remind bosses just how important we are.
Be a man, so your haters cannot ignore you. Give them so much to be mad at you. Don't try to win over them; you are not a jackass whisper.
Women are mentally and physically powerful. Need examples? Michele Obama, Serena Williams, Simone Biles, and Hillary Clinton are just a few of the many outstanding women in our society today.
Remember, empowerment starts from within. Take small daily steps toward your goals, and you'll be amazed at what you can achieve.
