“We need women who are so strong they can be gentle, so educated they can be humble, so fierce they can be compassionate, so passionate they can be rational and so disciplined they can be free” -Kavita Ramdas
I came across this quote the other day and it made me realize a few things.There are many standards for women in our society. Women are often measured by how they look rather than who they are. I think it is important that women remember they are phenomenal for who they are on the inside. We can not forget to ...
Be Strong. Strong is often perceived as cold or mean. Strong is seen as having a voice that seems aggressive. Strong can be seen as an attitude or rude. Is that really what strong is? Strong is allowing yourself to be kind to those who hurt you. Strong is being assertive with your words but gentle with your voice. Strong is holding a standard for yourself and not changing it for another's comfort. Strong is standing up for yourself. Strong is being there for the ones who need it the most. Strong is having strength and resilience. Strong is being gentle with yourself and others. Strong is self-respect while being kind.
Be Educated. “The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence,” Charles Bukowski. Being educated is knowing when you do not know. Never consider yourself an expert. The most educated people are the ones who keep on learning. A true expert will always be humble about their ability. Be humble in your knowledge. Be open to learning new things because you do not know everything. "The only true wisdom is knowing you know nothing," Socrates.
Be Fierce. Being fierce is having the ambition to chase your dreams. It is being fearless. It is walking into a room and knowing what you bring to the table. It is having the courage to go after what you want. Fierce is also the ability to have resilience in each storm. Being fierce is being compassionate towards yourself when you fail. You will fail in life.You will face many challenges. Life is full of highs and lows so make sure you love yourself the most. Have the courage to get back up. IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN YOURSELF NO ONE ELSE WILL.
Be Passionate. Be passionate about the things you love. Wear your heart on your sleeve and bring passion into everything you do. Show kindness. Treat others how you want to be treated. Know your boundaries. Be aware of your emotions. Understand the truth behind actions. Don’t let your passion blind you but allow it to fuel you. Be rational in setting steps towards your goals. Have the passion to chase your dreams and rationale to conquer them.
Be disciplined. Focus on your goals. Make time for the things that are important to you. Make your goals a priority. Work hard every day on the things you care about … especially yourself. Discipline is the bridge between your goals and accomplishments. Be motivated but allow yourself to live. Don’t let things consume you or your time. You have one life, so make sure you enjoy it. Be free enough to enjoy the journey.
Make this week a good one!
