In Girl, Stop Apologizing, number-one New York Times best-selling author and founder of a multimillion-dollar media company, Rachel Hollis sounds a wake-up call. She knows that many women have been taught to define themselves in light of other people - whether as wife, mother, daughter, or employee....

Historia
Jennifer Romolini started her career as an awkward 27-year-old misfit, navigated her way through New York media, and became a boss - an editor in chief, an editorial director, and a vice president - all within little more than a decade. Her book, Weird in a World That's Not, asserts that being outside the norm and achieving real, high-level success are not mutually exclusive, even if the perception of the business world often seems otherwise, even if it seems like only office-politicking extroverts are set up for reward.

When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave - "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams" - wasn't about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because "time is all you have... and you may find one day that you have less than you think").

Historia
The first thing Sophia Amoruso sold online wasn’t fashion - it was a stolen book. She spent her teens hitchhiking, committing petty theft, and dumpster diving. By twenty-two, she had resigned herself to employment, but was still broke, directionless, and working a mediocre day job she’d taken for the health insurance. It was there that Sophia decided to start selling vintage clothes on eBay. Eight years later, she is the founder, CEO, and creative director of Nasty Gal, a $100 million plus online fashion retailer with more than 350 employees.

Awesome book!!!
I loved this book. It made me realize that the job I’m at now doesn’t deserve me and that I need to open up my options. It has helped me learn that having many different jobs wouldn’t hurt.

Insightful
I agree with everything in this book. It would have been marvelous to have its wisdom all those many years ago when I first stepped out into the "work world". Fortunately, all this wisdom in one place works out grand for me. I've wanted to share such golden nuggets as these, with my adult children, but now I can simply give them their own copy of this gem, as they are beginning to navigate their own "adventures" through private and corporate America. The book was one of those not too much and not too little reads. so I finished it in a day because I couldn't put it down. It also reminded me of things, and I giggled some too, as I thought the author had gotten into my mind-as I've been refocused with that little thought - JPM!
