this quote from Carl Jung hits so hard.
“The world is full of people suffering from the effects of their own unlived life. They become bitter, critical, or rigid, not because the world is cruel to them, but because they have betrayed their own inner possibilities. The artist who never makes art becomes cynical about those who do. The lover who never risks loving mocks romance. The thinker who never commits to a philosophy sneers at belief itself. And yet, all of them suffer, because deep down they know: the life they mock is the life they were meant to live.”

Intelligence is very attractive. A person who talks to you about different topics, writes correctly, can explain things you don't understand, knows different languages, can express themselves profoundly, and is capable of debating various topics is exciting. Open-minded people, those with a continuous desire to learn, are definitely amazing. And as they say, mental attraction is much stronger than physical; you cannot escape a mind even by closing your eyes.

Were you the victim of a smear campaign?
👉A smear campaign is a narcissist telling lies about you
👉The victim sharing what actually happened is not a smear campaign

Pay attention to the people who “can’t” with you but “can” with everyone else. You have to let go of the people that can't see your worth. You should be appreciated, respected and never took for granted. Believe you can find better. Go where you are celebrated, not tolerated.

In a world of performative cruelty and outrage, it takes tremendous courage to be gentle, to love well, to read widely, to embrace curiosity instead of bigotry, to pursue kindness instead of hate.

Maturity is learning to walk away from people and situations that threaten your peace of mind, self respect, values, morals or self worth.

What is ignored or neglected by the media -- but will be studied by historians?
Here's the full list of 25 examples:
Ingeborg! ❤️
The story of Ingeborg Rapoport, who, in 2015, 74 years after being denied her Ph.D by the Nazis for being Jewish, she successfully defended her dissertation and received her doctorate at the age of 102, making her the oldest person ever to receive one ow.ly/mYf330oqjSB

In our research we found that women were told they were too young to lead, too old to lead...and middle age wasn't quite right either. As it turns out no age is the right age to be a woman leader. See my latest @HarvardBiz article for solutions.
