I saw two amazing women speak this week about mistakes that men don’t make.
They presented eight ways that women sabotage their own credibility and results in their business and personal lives.
Here’s the short list:
1. Seeking Validation
2. Hoping for the Best
3. Avoiding Confrontation
4. Resisting Duality (this one’s very interesting….)
5. Blending In
6. Diminishing
7. Making It Personal
8. Taking It Personal

4. Resisting Duality (this one’s very interesting….) Maybe.
Maybe not.
Mistake #2: Hoping for the Best.
Pick Your Battle and Create a Plan .
One of the Mistakes Men Don’t Make is the concept of having a meeting before the meeting. Men do this all the time; it’s called golf. Think about situations where it would be beneficial to iron out some of the more important details with key players before you’re in a more public meeting.
Harking back to the need for validation, some women rush through negotiations, taking away far less than they would if they had a tougher stomach for the process.

Oh, poo. I hate these lists that generalize. Men don’t take things personally? They’ve never met my sis’ jackass boss or any of the dentist’s she’s worked for. Geez. The man scribbles out full page letters, cursing and accusing and tacks them to doors in the office.

Hmm...mistakes women don't make:
1. Shooting off bottle rockets from their butt cracks.
2. I could go on, but you get the idea.

What happened to 'Arguing with idiots?'
"Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you."
Matthew 7:6
That's about as biblical as I go.
