Why You Must Invest in Yourself to Succeed
I speak to hundreds of women. I hear the same things over and over about why they can’t do something. I never really thought about it much until I left my “safe” corporate job to pursue my passion.
It took me three long years to give myself permission to leave a job I hated. I let the “what ifs” hold me back. At some point, I realized that I deserved better, that I deserved more out of life.
I had to let go of the crippling fear. Fear truly is what holds us all back.
I read an interesting stat from a study done by Hewlett Packard that showed that women would only apply to a job if they met a 100% of the criteria, while men would apply to a job if they only met 60% of the criteria.1 Men are historically known to take more risks than women. 2
You, as a woman, have the power and authority to invest in yourself. And you damn well should. You do not “need to check with your partner first”, or “think about it for a few days.”
I get it. It’s scary when you aren’t sure of the outcome, but know that there will never be a right time. You do not need to ask for permission from someone else to grow. It’s okay to make yourself a priority.
Investing in yourself means real progress for women. Imagine if every woman in the world carried the confidence she should. Can you imagine the contributions that could be made? It is time to stop letting doubt and insecurity hold us back from getting we want out of life.
