Making Peace with Where You Stand (even when it's not where you want to be)
The Female CEO
For so many of us it's always about the next step. We focus on what we lack, rather than on the abundance of success in front of our faces. Especially as women, we have an affinity for holding the weight of expectation and pushing ourselves past the breaking point sometimes... We probably don't need to be telling you this; you know it. We all do!
But what is helpful to hear sometimes is that we know better than this, and that's exactly what Tricia Scott writes about at The Female CEO. You (just YOU) choose how you react to the twists and turns of life, and it's important to remind yourself of these things:
You're doing a great job.
You don't need to justify yourself.
Stand in your power.
Remind yourself that growth is often found when you pause. You got this!
