Reflections on Behavior

Unless we progress, we regress – Dwight D. Eisenhower

“You’ve got to have something to eat, and a little love in your life before you can hold still for any damn body’s sermon on how to behave.” – Billy Holiday

‘Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren’t.’— Margaret Thatcher

The Key To Self Expression is…

Surprise. When I work. I want to hear myself say something I wouldn’t have anticipated saying – creating a new idea. That’s my definition of discovery. – Terrace Hayes 

Truth. Sometimes we’re tempted to create what we think a smart popular, or “normal” person would make. But our work is best when we’re just being our own peculiar selves. – Shannon Olde

Fearlessness. We often turn away from difficult matters of the soul. But to express truth, we have to trust that we can handle our pain. – Nick Flynn

Dismantling  the walls between our inner experience and our outer expressions. We often survive by presenting a false self to the rest of the word. But at some point we have to let that go because it becomes a prison. -Kim Rosen

The Renegotiation

We’ve been taught to keep people out of our finances…. but we’re not privy to what others are being paid. An employer might justify an offer based on your pervious salary history. The problem is…we’re already many steps behind.

Ambition

“There are all different kinds of ambition. Ambition usually refers to the male kind of ambition that makes men compete to the death and try to take all the money and not care whom they subjugate in the process. Society has deemed this form of ambition okay for men but never okay for women. -CANDACE BUSHNELL

“I have become far more willing to ask for what I want and what I need. We cannot be too afraid to take steps toward what we want and deserve. If you’re not stumbling, you’re not going anywhere. The only failure is failing to move at all.” AURORA JAMES

When I was a young makeup artist, I defined ambition as making enough money to get by—I just wanted to be able to pay my rent! Now ambition for me is about jumping into new projects that I don’t know anything about, but proving to myself that I can excel.”
