3 ATTITUDES TO BE MORE SUCCESSFUL By: Marilyn Martinez SPAIN Being a woman is not easy... Does anyone agree with me? We women work, we take care of our children, our parents and all other family and friends in need... we take care of our homes and the activities and celebrations of our loved ones... And in many cases, we study and try to improve ourselves.... And as stressful as all of this can be, I feel deeply that being a woman is a great privilege and I am honored to be one.... So, I also honor you no matter how successful you are right now and I want to invite you to honor yourselves and all the women you know because it's not easy for them either and they deserve it too.... Women are designed to be united, to collaborate and to help each other and through this "helping each other" we all heal... Therefore, I want to share with you 3 attitudes and actions that can boost you in your personal and professional life to be more successful in all areas of your life... 1) You don't need to be perfect Women in general feel that we have to prove something or at least, it seems that socially that is what is demanded of us.... Perfect in our work, perfect wives or partners, perfect physically, perfect in our perfectly clean house, perfect mothers, daughters, friends.... And this leads us to demand from ourselves something that would be impossible for a single woman to fulfill...maybe three women could do it, but certainly not just one woman with 24 hours a day....
