When stumped by a life choice, choose “enlargement” over happiness. - major personal decisions should be made not by asking, “Will this make me happy?”, but “Will this choice enlarge me or diminish me?”
The advice you don’t want to hear is usually the advice you need.
Well-Behaved Women Seldom Make History
I felt privileged to attend a mentoring event organized by an industry organisation the day before International Women's Day. This is not man bashing event. In fact, during the whole day conference many women have recognised help from their male counterparts from work or elsewhere. This is definitely something I can relate to. I have received lots of opportunities, encouragement and belief from male figures in my life. I could not have been who I am without them. Yet, there are still invisible barriers and glass ceiling partly formed by unconscious biases in the society. Women's issues are diversity issues. When those issues are addressed, every human being benefits. We are all in one.
