Went to hear 4 women entrepreneurs yesterday at the British library. Was fantastic, they really inspired me to keep positive and keep at it. Martha Lane Fox wasn't there, she was ill but there were some amazing women there. I loved the way that Kanya King was so down to earth and yet apparently has an MBE and started the black music awards MOBO from her bedroom - that's impressive! I think that these sort of women should be broadcast to all teenagers in this county so that people feel inspired to create something of themselves. Kanya commented on how her sister told her to always wear her hair up in meetings as people would take her more seriouslsly, Kanya ignored her sister and look where she has got to! Funnily enough I have been told many times by others, elders ,even hairdressers to wear my hair up for interviews - "it will make you look older , more professional!" Well from now on I'm going to be me , straggly hair and young face and people can like me or lump me!
Even better, I won my second prize of the week! I won a British library memory stick for my computer! I never win anything , but now I'm winning twice in one week. I also won 2 books at my daughters mother and baby toddler group, a mum was selling books, she asked for our details and I entered mine and won!
Am buying a lottery ticket over the weekend and keep my fingers crossed for another more lucrative win!
