In honor of International Day of the Girl, I wanted to post a few (of the many) things I would tell my young girl doppelgänger:
1. Forgive-easily and often. If for no one else, do it for yourself.
2. It is great to dream big; it's even better to have a plan. It is not enough to have dreams, you have to go after what is it you say you want and create a path for yourself.
3. People need you to be different, both in your forthcoming professional life and personal life. The world thrives off of individuality, so don't be afraid to be your unbridled, amazing self-it liberates others. You are more than good enough so don't be afraid to share who you really are.
4. Fear is actually a great thing. It means you are growing.
5. There is really no such thing as failure. It is merely preparation for something great if you are wise enough to take advantage. Use the negative experiences(and people) as lessons and know when to let them go.
Amen!!!!
