The Woman I Wanted to Be

Product Information

There are many moments in The Woman I Wanted to Be where Diane failed to be that woman. But instead of becoming mired in failure (she had to sell her business two separate times to avoid bankruptcy), she persevered to become a household name. Conversely, when you're taking good care of yourself (both your physical and mental health), you can be more thoughtfully engaged with whatever comes, use the resources you have in your life, and grow from the challenges you face, rather than merely surviving them. I particularly enjoyed the story about her mother and the building of her business. She also talked much about her family. But I noticed that her brother was mentioned only about 3 times and always in passing...never in detail. She doesn't talk bad about anyone... as a mother with teens, I'm always paying attention to what they are not saying, and I found myself doing the same with this book. It just made me wonder...that's all. Take a few minutes to list, on paper or on your computer, the changes and goals that would be included in this picture. Be specific about what you want. It’s okay if you want something that you seemingly have no control over, such as a mate who is perfect for you. Just write it down. I have been through so many unwanted, scary, worrying, moments so before I touch on “How I Became the Person I Want to Be” I want you to know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

And never, ever lie about your age. Who can lie with the Internet anyway? To embrace your age is to embrace your life.

Why don’t you sit with us? This is James and Sirius. Guys, this is my friend from home, Severus.” Life goals, like desires, don’t appear before you at the snap of your fingers or just by saying some magic words. We all know that growth and personal improvement is a process that everyone isn’t ready for. Why? Because, to achieve some life goals, the idea of “Trust yourself and you’ll know the way” isn’t enough. This is the most common synonym, mainly used to announce that we’d like to do something in the future.Look at the difference between “I want to be there for you” and “I wanted to be there for you.” The first example shows that we intend on being there for somebody. However, the second one (using “wanted”) shows that we wished we could have been, but the time has already passed, and now it’s too late. Synonyms For “I Wanted To” And “I Want To” As long as the future plan is now different from the originally intended one, you can use “I wanted to” to express your feelings about it. This book is Diane Von Furstenberg's autobiography and the audio is read by her. I loved her telling of her own personal story. She seems to have lived a charmed life, but she also worked hard to be who she wanted to be and to get what she wanted. Her list of accomplishments is long.

She is an excellent role model and it was such fun to read about her incredibly exciting and almost unbelievably successful life.See ya, Snivellus!" yelled James as the two stormed off, and Sirius burst out laughing out all over again.

Many people spend their lives working on a version of themselves that doesn’t even conform exactly to their own values. To put it another way, sometimes, you might tend to focus more on the person you “should be” and not as much on the person you really “want to be”.Well, there’s certainly some Slytherin traits within you. A lot of ambition, a lot of pride… a large capacity for cruelty too, you may want to work on that...” I opened the envelope with my grades, and I have passed. Yes, I have but the grades were much worse than my predicted grades before all of the struggles affected my life.

These masks are like a protection to help you be socially accepted. By using these masks, people hope to be accepted, included, and even appreciated by others.
