Lean In
Self-management
Do not let having kids bring you down.
from Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead by Sheryl Sandberg, Nell Scovell
Having children does not mean you have to give up every other aspect of your life. It may be difficult to juggle a job as well as taking care of your kids, but you will not regret it.
Keep in mind that this does not mean all women should work despite having kids. It simply means that being a woman and having children should not limit your choices.
How to Apply This
- Do not allow the inconveniences of pregnancy or raising children to be a reason for dropping out of the workforce.
Women who want to continue their careers should not drop out due to external factors such as peer pressure or the feeling that they need to stick to social norms. Childcare is not just the mother’s responsibility; it is the father’s responsibility too.
