What three “gifts” would you give a 20-something if you were a “Forty-Godmother”? 40-something women share three things to help a 20-something get a head start on the confidence to make decisions that are right for themselves. No more woulda, coulda, shoulda.
1. Don’t give yourself up too quickly. Give yourself time to figure out what you want and need. It’s not wrong to give 150% to something or someone but it has to be the right person or the right job. If they can’t or won’t appreciate it, you won’t get anywhere. You can have a beautiful car but if you can’t get from point A to point B, There’s something wrong with it. Evaluate…where is their their heart? Are they givers? Are they takers? Are they going to promote me?
2. You don’t have to succeed in your twenties. You can fail and learn and pick up your efforts. You don’t want to look back and think, “Oh I wish.” You can fail in your twenties and be okay.
3. Keep your femininity. We should always keep that. Women are strong enough to do that. We can achieve. No matter what.
