Know how to say ‘no’
Women generally have difficulty saying ‘no’, causing people around them to take advantage when they realize that this is a weakness.
Put yourself first.
It doesn’t mean, for example, that if someone needs your help to go to the hospital, you will respond that you can’t because you are going to watch a movie on television.
Learn to notice when they really need your help and when they just take advantage of your goodwill.

Believe in your potential, in your abilities, and show that you are capable when necessary.
Don’t be afraid to make mistakes, because mistakes are part of learning.
