Ten Lessons Learned from the Book “Girl, Stop Apologizing”
By Rachel Hollis

1.- Sorry, But No Sorry.
Even though this book is directed for women; after reading it, I’m sure the title could be just “Stop Apologizing.” It’s OK to feel insecure about standing out of the rest and have big dreams, but at the same time, we think it is necessary to ask for permission or apologize for not fitting on other’s expectations. First, you have to be clear of what your dream is and turn every desire that starts with “What if..” into action and then into reality.

2.- Imagine.
Imagine what the world would be if all of us pursue our dreams and not what others expect or think, we could change our lives and our planet. First, we have to break our barriers, and our limiting beliefs, in other words, our excuses.

3.- Do what you want.
Don’t do what others do, just because someone tells you to, or do what they expect from you, don’t let other people determine your life, don’t be ashamed for following your dreams, make a plan and start. Every journey begins with a step, but to reach your goal, you have to keep moving.
