You Cannot Be Born a Strong Woman, You Can Only Become One

Yes, we can only become one strong woman.

Life gets difficult. It becomes devastating for some and even worse for others. This is when truly strong warriors are forged and their true abilities are revealed.

Through challenges and trials, women build themselves to become invincible. As previously written, no one is born this way. Every woman you see and admire for her strength has been through hell and back to become the woman she is today.

They say that everything has a price! Well, it’s more than true, and every strong woman knows it, every single one of them has paid the price.

Strong women rise from the ashes and spread their wings at the perfect time. That’s what makes them different.

When they are supposed to fly away, they do. While others remain chained to the ground, suffocating in their own grief and self-pity, they seize the moment and fly into the unknown.

It’s not an easy decision to make, but it’s one that separates the steely souls from the gentle souls. It’s a decision that gives birth to the strong woman we all want to become.

This is what defines a strong woman. This is what we all tend to evolve towards.

1. They Don’t Hide Their Feelings

They embrace everything that is going on in their head and in their heart. Whether it’s complete chaos or perfect order, they find a way to deal with it. There is no room for panic or self-pity. There is only room to find solutions to problems.

Every strong woman knows that suppressing your feelings leads to ending up in an even worse state than you already were. It is easier and much wiser to confront what is boiling inside as soon as possible.

2. They Never Doubt Themselves

They are never lost. It’s impossible for a woman like that to get stuck without having any idea what to do next. A strong woman always has a backup plan and always knows what to do next.

The formula for their success is trust. They simply believe they can accomplish anything and they trust their own judgment. Nothing can bring them down or make them doubt the decisions they have already made. We should all think like that, right?

3. They are honest, sometimes direct

Strong women don’t even consider lying as an option they could use. They will always tell you the truth, no matter what.

Even if the truth isn’t exactly what you want to hear, they will serve it to you because, ultimately, you deserve to know so you can take it constructively and improve.

A strong woman will never deliberately hurt you or lie to you just to hurt you. A strong woman wants to help you improve and join her in her club as soon as possible.

4. They Know How Much They Are Worth

They know how much they are ready to accomplish. They know their abilities and their limits. But perhaps the most important factor in their awareness of their own worth is the fact that they never compare themselves to anyone else.

Strong women only have their own judgment to use to evaluate themselves, without worrying about others. They are not intimidated by anyone’s success, because they are focused on their own.

A strong woman will not waste her energy on harboring grudges and being angry with someone. She just doesn’t have time to worry about childish things.

She is mature enough to be the most understanding and forgiving person, even when it’s not her fault.

Don’t let his forgiving nature fool you. This doesn’t mean you can have everything you want from a woman like her. You can’t lie to her or take advantage of her.

She knows how to forgive, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t know how to protect herself and take revenge. If you betray her, you won’t get another chance to do so.

6. They Don’t Want Attention, They Want Respect

Attention is for the immature. Strong women demand respect and equality. A strong woman will never beg for something she wants.

She will get it on her own. If she fails, she will bear the consequences alone, but she will certainly never beg.

They never justify themselves and do not demand respect. If someone doesn’t respect her, she will understand that she has no place in that person’s life and will simply leave.

Or moments… whatever; the main thing is that they never forget the trials and pain that shaped them into the warriors they are now. If it wasn’t for the pain and loss, they would never have become what they are.

They are grateful for every single thing that has happened in their life. A strong woman will never forget where she came from or who she is.

8. Admire Every Strong Woman Until You Become One

There is no point being jealous of these women. You can only admire them and, above all, you can learn from them. The way they act, the way they fight for themselves is astonishing. They make it seem so easy to acquire this determination and attitude, but it is far from easy.

Respect them because they have come a long way to become who they are. I hope one day you will too.
