Cup of Confidence
While hard work and a can-do attitude are critical for professional success, it’s also important to believe in yourself and ask for what you want. Women are typically less inclined to express their desire than men. Consider inquiring about increasing responsibility at work, investing in a new skill or earning the salary that you know you deserve. For some reason, some women don’t feel comfortable asking for what they want. Build your confidence, own your worth and make the ask. You’ll be pleasantly surprised by the outcome. And the bonus is, the more you do this, the more you will achieve!
