The most powerful women aren’t always the ones who seem the most bold or assertive, despite how quiet they may seem doesn't mean they aren't powerful individuals. They aren’t always the women stepping on toes to get what they want or the ones that are the loudest yet they still allow themselves to be heard

The most powerful women are the ones you don't see coming. They are the ones that build empires and cities while others sleep. The ones who plan their comeback game plan strategically and quietly. Their ability to self-validate doesn't depend on the approval of others.

These women may be bullied, shamed, criticized, and disempowered in many ways, by many different people but they all have one thing in common- and that is their ability to get themselves off the ground when they've been knocked down.

They have an inner guidance, an inner fire in their bones and an unshakeable faith that can seem startling to those who have a dependency on outside motivation and encouragement to fight for what they believe in.They know their only competition is their past self; they know that their aspirations and beliefs will pave a path for them that is unable to be replicated by anyone else.

These women are original in their own right. They can't be bought, sold or cloned. They have ownership over every facet of their existence. They possess a strong sense of self, an appreciation and an acceptance of what makes them different and unique. While others are busy censoring themselves and catering to others, powerful women are not afraid to walk alone if it means staying true to who they really are.

These women know they are at their bravest when they listen to their own gut instincts rather than the dark voices of society. Their intuition and talent allow them to go above and beyond whatever limitations others impose on themselves.

Their success comes as a surprise to anyone who has ever underestimated them. People may forget about them while they build themselves up to be the unforgettable human being they strive for. When toxic people attempt to latch on and feed on the fire that these women carry, they just get burned in the process. Powerful women are always bringers of truth and change as they expose the darkness of others by standing in the light.

The ones who are born into and from chaos are also the ones who will spark a revolution. Their victories stand alone, on their own terms, because they were created by the blood, sweat, tears, and resilience of these women.

You can underestimate these powerful women all you want because it will cause them to rise higher than you could have ever imagined.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
