“I have a five year-old son and a three year-old daughter. I want my son to have a choice to contribute fully in the workforce or at home. And I want my daughter to have the choice to not just succeed, but to be liked for her accomplishments.”

Most people assume that women are responsible for households and child care. Most couples operate that way – not all. That fundamental assumption holds women back.

Everyone knows that marriage is the biggest personal decision you make, but it’s the biggest career decision you can make.

Women systematically underestimate their own abilities.

When you’re more valuable, the people around you will do more to make it work.

When it comes time to settle down, find someone who wants an equal partner. Someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated, and ambitious.

It’s time to cheer on girls and women who want to sit at the table.

When people are really suffering, and we know they’re suffering, that question can be a very difficult one. Inadvertently, I think without anyone meaning it, it communicates a lack of empathy.

The gender stereotypes introduced in childhood are reinforced throughout our lives and become self-fulfilling prophesies. Most leadership positions are held by men, so women don’t expect to achieve them, and that becomes one of the reasons they don’t.

We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic, reshape the conversation, to make sure women’s voices are heard and heeded, not overlooked and ignored.

Leaders should strive for authenticity over perfection.

The time is long overdue to encourage more women to dream the possible dream.

The No. 1 impediment to women succeeding in the workforce is now in the home.

Someone who values fairness and expects or, even better, wants to do his share in the home. These men exist and, trust me, over time, nothing is sexier.

If you do please everyone, you are not making enough progress.

No industry or country can reach its full potential until women reach their full potential. This is especially true of science and technology, where women with a surplus of talent still face a deficit of opportunity.

Being confident and believing in your own self-worth is necessary to achieving your potential.

Whatever I will accomplish today I am proud of myself anyway.

As for a limit to one’s labors, I, for one, do not recognize any for a high-minded man, except that the labors themselves should lead to noble accomplishments.

I really can’t put into words the feeling of setting a goal and accomplishing it. Sometimes the goals we set are scary, I’m a firm believer, if your dreams don’t scare you, they aren’t big enough. I stepped out on faith and let God do what God does best.

If we are to achieve things never before accomplished we must employ methods never before attempted.

Don’t measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.

Fear is a good doer. It accomplish what love or even hope can’t do.

I had to stop reading comments on blogs, they always tryna downplay yo accomplishments.

Never let pride be your guiding principle. Let your accomplishments speak for you.
