[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This will be more philosophical, but it's an attitude shift that has changed my life. I've let go of fear. Fear of failure, fear of embarrassment, fear of impostor syndrome. All of it. Maybe it's a 40s thing, or maybe it's a reaction to playing by all the rules and still losing my job. Now I just go for it. Don't like me? No problem. I probably am not meant to attract you as a friend anyway. I am attracting a higher quality group of people who are not threatened or competitive. Women who support each other -- no holds barred. It's like living at a different frequency. I went into business for myself, and I am 1,000 times more successful than the bozos who fired me. Life is peaceful. I am happy. No time for negativity; too much good stuff to do.[/quote]

Just turned 40 and agree with everything you said. One thing I've learned is that no one cares if you've played by the rules and did everything nicely. It won't get you promoted. It won't save you from layoffs. There's no loyalties. That's the reality of the corporate world we all work in. You want something, you need to go for it. Who cares what others think. [/quote]

You don't have to eff with other people to get ahead, just stay in your lane, MYOB, and concentrate on your own efforts (efforts that don't include time wasters and detrimental behavior like gossip). Find strong women who are most like you, who have their own accomplishments, and they will raise you up - not waste your time on petty BS.[/quote]
