The Cows

by Dawn O'Porter

I dread these meetings, as I have to deal with three very strong male egos who all know I am amazing at my job but can’t bring themselves to admit it. There

think when you’ve truly mastered the skill of enjoying your own company, happiness just comes.

Women can’t keep complaining about how society treats them if they just take being told they’re wrong all the time and don’t react.

I think women need to stop talking about how hard being a woman is and live by the example they want to set.

I think we’ve got feminism to this place where there is too much talking and not enough action.

Be who you want to be, get what you want, and the position of women in the world will change.

As an individual, you can change the world; why wait for someone else to try to change it for you?

Don’t apologise for who you are, and don’t take shit. Don’t be a victim. Feminism needs you to step up. Get what you want. Just go out there, and take it.

Everyone is in their own rut at some point, and when you’re in it, it can feel like life as you knew it, or hoped it would be, just isn’t going to happen. But that doesn’t mean it has to stay that way, or that you have to accept a raw deal.

When sadness is dominating your life, when you are so consumed with negativity that you can’t see the wood from the trees; in those times it is the job of someone close to you to remind you that everything will be OK one day.

matter how big your life is, how far you spread your wings, when it comes down to it, it’s a tiny unit that really matters.

But the truth is, sometimes you just love people right away. It doesn’t matter how many times you look them in the eye.

The world flips and changes constantly; the best we can do is remain ourselves.

My refusal to bow down has won me the love of a public who tried so hard to destroy me when they thought I was weak.
