Priyanka tells us how to be a self-reliant woman to create a better world. A Different Truths exclusive.
Right from body shaming, colour shaming, facing domestic violence, acid attacks, sexual assault, male-dominance, we have seen it all, been through it, heard about it and fought it in our best capacities. From emotional turbulence to financial disturbance we must face it all in our daily life, but how can we change our present situation, how can we control or take charge of our own lives? How can we come out of our miseries?
We feel inferior of ourselves; we doubt our own judgments and decisions. We still look for a safe space and are afraid of coming out of our comfort zone.
I understand that as a limiting belief deeply rooted in our society and within us, we feel inferior of ourselves, we doubt our own judgments and decisions. We still look for a safe space and are afraid of coming out of our comfort zone. But dear women, its time now that we come out our cocoon and take charge of our lives, take command, rule and make it work for ourselves.
For how long we are going to be a story of misery, for how long we will dig into the hole of self-pity. We got to come out of all those paralysed emotions and situations. If you got a passion work on it, invest in it. Learn something new, upgrade yourself, keep yourself updated. Stay healthy, take care of your body and mind both. More than anyone else you need yourself the most.
In India and maybe other countries as well, I have seen women not participating in financial decisions of the family.

How can we contribute?
- By staying aware! Keep ourselves upgraded, learn about new things.
- Get the basic facts and figures checked, Taxes, interest rates etc.
- Try to save, be it a minimal amount but have some contingency amount.
- Try to get involved in talks, read the news to stay updated with current affairs and changes around the world.
- Come out of inhibitions.
- Do not hesitate to raise a query and to seek answers.
We can only realise our hidden potential unleashing ourselves, by stepping out of our comfort zone. Life begins when we entrust ourselves and stop being a procrastinator.
These are just a few basic things which we all know but we hardly care to reach out, to try. We can create the life we want for ourselves. We just need to stop and observe our life, feel confident, accept all our emotions, stop seeking validation from the outside world and live the life we are blessed with. We can only realise our hidden potential unleashing ourselves, by stepping out of our comfort zone. Life begins when we entrust ourselves and stop being a procrastinator.
Take charge of your life and make it work for you.

A strong and empowering post. Indeed females should stand shoulder to shoulder and walk hand in hand. The narrative is changing but there is still a lot to be done. It’s always a treat to read your posts and I admire them for their simple yet intense approach.
Thank you so much for appreciating my views.
