This is a wonderful time to be alive and there is so much for women to be positive about. Here are my top ten reasons to be optimistic right now.
1. More women are making more money than ever before
More women are shaping their own destinies, taking advantage of the financial opportunities out there and seizing the moment to create the wealth that was once only dreamt of.
2. We are living longer
Life expectancy is at an all-time high. The rate and pace of scientific advances and improved diet and lifestyles means that we are living much longer and are staying healthier, too.
3. The world is a safer place
Although it may seem like a falsity, we are actually living through one of the most peaceful times in recent history, with global violence at its lowest levels since the 1950s.
4. Age is no longer a barrier
We can achieve whatever we want at any stage of our life, replacing retirement with reinvention. Women are looking great and accomplishing more at every age.
5. We can have work/life balance
We are strong, determined, and driven, and despite the struggles faced by previous generations we are able to balance rewarding careers with fulfilling personal lives.
6. We are leading more spiritual lives
We are meditating, practicing yoga, and learning to take better care of our spiritual and emotional needs, giving more meaning to our lives.
7. We are the teachers
Our greater capacity for compassion, unconditional love, and foresight guides and enriches the minds of the next generation, as 90% of elementary school teachers are women.
8. Women are wealth creators
Today, women entrepreneurs are making an enormous impact on the economy, contributing almost $3 trillion to the nation’s coffers every year and creating or maintaining 23 million jobs.
9. The Internet makes shopping a snap
The world’s biggest shopping mall is right at our fingertips, and we can browse through the latest collections and order just about anything we desire from the comfort of our computer.
10. Candlelit bubble baths
Candlelit bubble baths are one of the best ways for any woman to unwind and be rejuvenated. Treasure these moments of pure bliss that leave you feeling like a goddess.
No matter how dark the days look, turn things around by focusing on what makes you feel optimistic. Draw up your own top ten list, keep it within eyesight, and keep fixed on what is good about the world.
