The Covid-19 pandemic has offered all if us wisdom that we need moving forward with our lives. I am providing advice for all feisty women everywhere as they move through their lives.
Stay home, if you are sick, to stop the spread of germs and to save lives. (This is not rocket science.) We have all heard this for a long time. Wash your hands always and cough or sneeze into your arm. Do not go to work if you are even a little bit sick; better yet, wait an extra day before going back to work if you have been sick. You have sick days so use them. Give yourself the chance to fully recover so that you do not get others sick. Share your lunch goodies, but not your germs. No one wants your germs, seriously.
Social distancing. (Please do not step into my personal space). Sometimes you really need to remind people about standing too close to you. I have started to back-up from those who stand too close to me. If they move in too closely even after moving back from them, a well-timed “gentle” cough will keep them where they should be. Just watch. Works every time.
To all situations in life, be flexible. Always go with the flow and adjust as needed.
“I don’t know.” Admit it when you are clueless. This goes a long way and lets others know that you are feisty, yet not too feisty to admit that you are not perfect. Get the facts and then share them with others.
The time is always right to do what is right. Always be an upstander and not a bystander. Use you feisty to make a positive contribution to our world.
Be tough, smart, disciplined, unified, and loving, in all you do. The world needs more feisty women like us to improve our world.
And most importantly, know that it’s okay not to be okay. Tell others. Get help. We all need help sometimes. It takes a real feisty woman to ask for help. Do it and help yourself. Set a good example to others who might needs help as well.
Stay feisty, ladies. Lives depend on it. And remember to rock your homemade mask. You are still fabulous!
