If you want to be respected like a lady, you have to carry yourself like a lady. Here is how you do it: For starters,don’t be desperate. Desperation is never attractive & will prevent you from getting what you want out of life. You won’t get that dream job if you are desperate. You won’t get that dream love of your life being desperate. All you will get is a case of frustration and depression. Instead learn to be confident rather than desperate and cocky. Cockiness is not the same as confidence. When you are confident, you learn to trust yourself and your actions. When you’re cocky, you make mistakes & forget to learn from them and progress your way to success. Be careful. Lastly, don’t forget to smile. The more you do it, the better off you’ll be. Smiling can open doors you never knew were unlocked.
Lessons Learned: Define Yourself.
If you don’t define yourself, your enemies will. – Chris Matthews This quotation is very true. No one can hurt you if your actions speaker louder than your enemies words. Be kind. Be humble. Be confident. You’re always a work in progress to become a better you.
Own Your Voice To Get What You Want
As a woman, I am starting to learn if I want power over my personal and professional success I need to own my statements. I need to give my voice power. Young girls are taught to speak in a voice tone that is favorable to anyone and everything. It makes us come off timid and prevents us from getting what we want and need in romance and in our careers. So what is the solution? You can speak up for yourself but know when it is better be silent and listen, listening gains you wisdom about the situation. It will never lessen your power. Being the loudest and most arrogant can make you lose power rather than gain it. You can not win every battle, especially when it come to romantic conflicts. Pick your battles wisely. And most of all only apologize once, if at all. You do not have to apologize for having an honest opinion. You should apologize only once at the least and most, if you stated your honest opinion in a disrespectful way. Follow the golden rule. Be assertive( powerful verbals help but like, maybe, I think this might do not work) and do not be a bitch who has to have it her way or no way at all. When you take the bitch way, I can guarantee both your romance and career success will falter. – Briana Booker
