The Most Urgent Challenge of Self-transformation Is How One Shows Up In the Present Moment

Reading Time: 3 minutes Transformation is all about a string of present moments where we showed up different than we usually do. And when that string has more moments of the new stuff than the old patterns, we will visibly see the change and it is noticed as a successful change.

We need to fully grasp this ever-present influence and power that is always with us. The people that make it are the ones that have understood how to wield this power. No matter what happens they continue to show up at the moment that lines up with the final goal. They don’t walk away, they keep going.

Teach girls bravery, not perfection | Reshma Saujani | TedTalk

Reading Time: < 1 minute We’re raising our girls to be perfect, and we’re raising our boys to be brave, says Reshma Saujani, the founder of Girls Who Code. Saujani has taken up the charge to socialize young girls to take risks and learn to program — two skills they need to move society forward. To truly innovate, we cannot leave behind half of our population, she says. “I need each of you to tell every young woman you know to be comfortable with imperfection.”
