Men do not perceive a woman as a business partner
There is still an opinion that the world of business was created by men and should be controlled only by them. Fortunately, today there are more and more women who successfully run their own projects. Including they occupy leadership positions in those professions that are considered masculine, and become equal business partners with representatives of the opposite s*x.

Newbies in these circles are taken seriously and scrutinized at their every step, so you need to be prepared for that kind of attention.

As a rule, women have excellent command of words and know how to be good storytellers. If you are also lucky enough to own this skill, use it to promote your business. Tell about yourself and your business on social networks and the media. Let it be a story of success, ups and downs, dramas and happy happy ends. Angela Arends, Apple's vice president of retail, once said: “As the world becomes more complex and connected at the same time, stories are gaining tremendous power to educate, connect and inspire. I believe that with the tools of the digital age armed, the future of storytelling can be even richer and more significant than its past. "

It may seem that the harsh mens games about iron machines World of Tanks and World of Tanks Blitz with the clatter of tracks, explosions, raising up the clouds of the earth, are created by the same tough guys. In fact, this is far from the case.

Hundreds of girls are involved in the creation of "Tanks", who bring their own vision of how projects need to develop in order to delight their players.

Several years ago, the global Women in Tech movement emerged, followed by women's committees (eg VRARA.org) in global technical organizations. At major technology events (GITEX, VRARA GLOBAL Summit and others), panel discussions are held for women who want to share successful cases of working with technology.

Often the thesis that women should prove their competence in the field of technology and endure harassment in the programming environment around the world sounds only indirectly from specialists connected with technology.

Although the term "software development" itself was introduced by the American computer scientist and systems engineer Margaret Hamilton, who headed the department of the laboratory of measuring systems at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). She also supervised the development of onboard software for the NASA Apollo space program.

Happiness is NOT in those women with whom you want to sleep ... but in those with whom you want to wake up ...

The attitude to sports, including its division into exclusively male and female, is laid in the early years - remember your physical education lessons, when the teacher sent the boys to play basketball, and the girls were instructed to do something light and, yes, “female”: jump on a rope, squat and stretch. School norms have an interesting logic: in squats and flexibility exercises, girls need to succeed more, but in more energy-intensive running and push-ups, you can relax; in boys, as you might guess, the opposite is true. At the university, the position of teachers of physical culture rarely differs, except in sports universities, for obvious reason, the requirements for all students are higher. As a result, most children, adolescents, and then adults acquire physical skills and qualities associated with their gender: men become stronger, women - thinner and more feminine. This cliché is reminiscent of the Huxley incubator - with the difference, however, that in our country it is made not by malicious intent, but by inertia and because everyone rarely turns on their head. Indeed, if the average time for women in a 10 km swim is only seven minutes longer than that for men, is there really a significant difference between their endurance, strength and determination (qualities that are more often characterized by men than women).

If we imagine that each person will have the opportunity to develop any of his abilities, regardless of gender, a large number of doubts about suitable or not suitable sports activities will disappear by itself. For example, if a young man demonstrates plasticity from an early age, nothing will prevent him from enrolling in the rhythmic gymnastics section (in the opinion of the majority, this is a very feminine occupation), and a girl interested in boxing or ski jumping (both sports, by the way, were added into the women's Olympic program only in 2012 and 2014). In the non-professional sphere, such freedom also applies - if there is no suspicion of obstacles to doing Muay Thai or CrossFit (except for medical indications, of course), everyone will be able to do whatever he wants, and not what "is supposed to."

I recently had an argument with a friend of mine. She believes that a woman should not work more than 2 hours a day. The rest of the time she should spend on herself, on her family, on children and on the household. Do you think that further she began to broadcast about the fact that a man should earn? No matter how it is! A man, according to her, should work no more than 3-4 hours. But the employer must pay them, just as he paid. How does it feel? :)

I must say right away that the girl herself is now working as a middle-level manager for wholesales of household appliances. She works full time, but is going to leave there soon and open her own online store (she makes great soaps), since she does not want to hang around in the office from 10 to 19 anymore.

When I asked why the statement suddenly occurred to her about how much to work, she replied that it was obvious to her for a long time, because she does not know a single person who at work would be engaged in work all the time allotted for her. And recently, for the sake of interest, she decided to arrange for herself a record of working hours. And she got exactly 2 hours. That is, she works for 2 hours without being distracted by anything else, and the rest of the time she takes on social media and websites, smoke breaks, tea drinking, lunch, chatting with colleagues, etc. etc. At the same time, she is in good standing in the company, she manages to do everything that she is instructed to, and she was even put as an example for others many times !!!

And then I remembered that just a month ago, on the course on monetary thinking "Fast and effective achievement of goals", business consultant Olga Yurkovskaya yurkovskaya, who leads him, told us about one official. It took him 40 minutes to work a day (!!!). We were still neighing on this topic then! And then suddenly my Masha! In general, I did not believe her, said that about 2 hours she turned down, and let her work on herself. :)

After all, then I also did a similar exercise for myself in recording working hours. It was during this course that Olga told us about him. Take a piece of paper and a pen and while you work, every half hour you write down what you have done in that half hour. It is important not to lie to yourself! If, for example, during these half an hour you were reading Facebook, looking at pictures on Instagram or reading news, even if on a topic indirectly related to your work, consider that you were not working, but having fun. In general, I was honest with myself and counted that it took me almost 8 hours to work. From 12-14.

Women's health is the most valuable thing that every representative of the beautiful half of humanity has. Preservation of psychological and physical health is the most important and vital priority for any modern person. For a woman, health is an opportunity to preserve youth for many years.

Unfortunately, at any age, a woman is trapped by various diseases that can not only cause anxiety, but also turn into serious problems that affect the quality of life.

One of the aspects affecting women's health is gynecological diseases that every woman has to face. It can be both relatively harmless colpitis and serious diseases, the result of which can be the development of severe complications up to oncology and the deprivation of the opportunity to become a mother. That is why girls should know the main points regarding issues of the female ge***al area: the normal duration of menstruation, indicators of a healthy hormonal background, pregnancy planning, symptoms of gynecological diseases, and others.
