Audre Lorde: "When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid."

There is power in knowing yourself.

What you think of yourself is much more important than what people think of you.

Step up to the challenge, believe in yourself, and do what it takes. Right now is a great time to start.

Stop beating yourself up! You are a work in progress, which means you get there a little at a time, not all at once.

Trust yourself. You have survived everything so far.
