“You cannot be anything if you want to be everything.”

“Never feel bad for being assertive, speaking your mind, and putting your foot down. What you think is anger, others see as a good solid display of self-esteem. ”

“Don’t allow anyone to pressure you into taking a job in a field that doesn’t feel right in your gut. You are the one who has to live your life every day, so make sure you’re happy with the choices you make. Once you identify the plan that’s right for you, pursue it wholeheartedly. Then, whether you’re raking in dough or you’re a full-time mom with a baby in tow, you will be happy.”
