Every time I interview a 40-something woman for 40:20 Vision I ask them what three “gifts” would they give a 20-something if they were a “Forty-Godmother”. In essence, three things to help you get a head start on perspective and gain the confidence you need to make decisions that are right for you. No more woulda, coulda, shoulda.

1. Chase the job you want with all abandon…go for it even if you don’t think you are ready and work like hell to prove you can. Learn the skills and from everyone around you.
2. Don’t chase a relationship that you have to prove yourself for…it’s very hard to convince someone to love you.
3. Don’t forget to appreciate the fun that is around you … it likely isn’t better on the other side and you will miss it if you are always searching for the next next thing.
