I can feel it. 2008 will be a breakthrough year for women.
And it's not just the prospect of the first woman president. It's the energy I sense every day among my clients and among the many women I meet doing speeches and workshops. Women are pursuing with unprecedented power what is truly most meaningful to them.
Don't just take my word for it. According to the trendspotters at ad agency powerhouse JWT, women are one of the top ten trends to watch for in the coming year.
"Queen Trumps King" is how the trendspotters put it. Women's power is on the rise as they increasingly shape the world according to their needs.
I begin my last "Find Your Clarity" mini-retreat for women with a wall of ambition, where participants write their aspirations on sticky notes. Here are just a few of them. Don't they get you excited?
To be financially independent
To be creative
To live my yoga
To get a master's degree
To xeriscape my home
To have a baby
To further my career
To lose weight
To publish a book
To learn Spanish
To start a business
To spend more leisure time with my husband
To exhibit my art
To make a difference
To finish a marathon
To get in shape
Will 2008 be your breakthrough year?
