10 Ways to Become a Stronger Woman
I love to read and I also enjoy sharing what I have read. I found this great article, “10 Ways to Become a Stronger Woman” in Fitness Magazine, a “must-do list” from Maria Shriver, a former news anchor, now First Lady of California, and the author of Ten Things I Wish I’d Known Before I Went Out Into The Real World. So I would like to share some great word of wisdom from Maria Shriver with all of you.
- Do something that scares you every day, as Eleanor Roosevelt suggested. Fear gives us wisdom. It makes us work harder than we imagined we could.
- Eat moderately; live bountifully. Enjoy healthy foods. You want your body to last a very long time.
- Jot down in a journal one moment a day in which you felt powerful. Share your thoughts and ideas at californiawomen.org/forum/. The idea: We can all learn from each other.
- Get a physical every year. You are worth it. Your health is a gift.
- Use a pedometer to track how much you move around. Challenge yourself daily to take at least 10,000 steps.
- Serve your community at least once a year. Build a playground, tutor a child, or deliver food to a home-bound senior citizen. I know that helping others makes me feel better about myself and my purpose in life. Not sure where to begin? Check out volunteermatch.org.
- Read The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment, by Eckhart Tolle. It’s a beautiful book that encourages us all to live in the present as a way to be happy.
- Keep a record of tips and inspirational quotations that you can refer to each day. One of my favorite quotes, which I have on a T-shirt: “Well-behaved woman rarely make history.”
- Stay curious. Be open-minded. Ask a lot of questions and get a lot of answers. That’s information–and wisdom.
- Pledge to “show up” in your life as yourself, not as an imitation of anyone else.
