Because of this, <strong>we are capable of changing our behaviors so that they better serve us. <\/strong>We will examine each of the habits of successful women that Hollis identifies as being crucial to success and discuss strategies for implementing the behavior in your own life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Start With a Solid Foundation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before any other behaviors can be modified, Hollis strongly suggests <strong>you start by laying a healthy foundation<\/strong>. These are the habits and routines that will allow your new mindset and behaviors to flourish. She gives the following advice:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Wake up early: <\/strong>Spend at least an hour each morning focusing on <em>your<\/em> goals before you start living for anyone else.<\/li><li><strong>Hydrate: <\/strong>Drink half your body weight in ounces of water each day.<\/li><li><strong>Eat healthy: <\/strong>Replace at least one unhealthy food in your diet (to start).<\/li><li><strong>Move your body: <\/strong>Spend at least 30 minutes moving each day.<\/li><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/practicing-gratitude\/\">Practice gratitude<\/a>: <\/strong>Designate time every day to reflect on what you are grateful for.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: What makes these areas important? All of them contribute to your energy levels. Taking a look at <em>Lifehack<\/em>\u2019s list of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifehack.org\/673363\/healthy-habits-that-will-improve-your-overall-well-being-and-make-you-feel-good\"><em>74 Healthy Habits That Will Drastically Improve Every Area of Your Life<\/em><\/a><em>, <\/em>you will notice that essentially every item listed (chew your food, walk at lunchtime, and so on) could be classified into one of the categories Hollis examines. The running theme in both <em>Lifehack<\/em>\u2019s list and Hollis\u2019s is that your overall energy and zest for life will increase if you incorporate the habits they discuss.)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Trust Yourself as the Voice of Authority<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hollis notes that throughout history, and across the globe, the vast majority of cultures have been patriarchal. This means that the voice of authority in nearly every government and community has been male since the beginning of time. On a smaller scale, in many (not all) families, the father is the decision maker. So for most of us, the voice of authority growing up was male, and this is now ingrained in our subconscious beliefs about leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you\u2019re a woman, Hollis says you must rewire this subconscious <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/your-belief-system\/\">belief system<\/a> in order to trust your own authority without the need for male validation. This takes conscious effort.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>The Relationship Between Approval-Seeking and Codependence<\/strong><br><br>Codependency is a psychological condition\u2014often experienced by children of alcoholics and addicts\u2014in which one person has an unhealthy need for another person\u2019s approval.\u00a0<br><br>Hollis is an admitted codependent. When she was growing up, every decision she made hinged on her father\u2019s potential reaction. She sought his approval and feared his disappointment. After a decade of marriage, Hollis realized she had transferred the position of authority from her father to her husband, and she was now living for <em>his<\/em> approval and seeking <em>his<\/em> validation with every decision she made. When Hollis eventually began trusting her own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/methods-of-decision-making-crucial-conversations\/\">decision-making<\/a> skills, it was a major catalyst for her success.<br><br><em>Codependent No More<\/em> by Melody Beattie explains this pattern of behavior in depth. Her message (and Hollis\u2019s) is that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Codependent-No-More-Controlling-Yourself\/dp\/0894864025\/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&amp;keywords=codependence+no+more&amp;qid=1632427900&amp;sr=8-3\">you can only break free of codependence by recognizing that other people\u2019s thoughts and behavior aren\u2019t your responsibility nor are they within your control.<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Advocate for Yourself<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After building healthy habits and trusting your own authority, Hollis wants you to advocate for yourself. Speak up\u2014unapologetically\u2014because while your \u201cvillage\u201d wants to help, they can\u2019t read your mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hollis says the two best ways to advocate for yourself (and move more quickly toward your goal) is to <strong>ask for help when you need it and say no to requests that will hinder your progress.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ask for Help<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Hollis acknowledges that asking for help isn\u2019t easy. <strong>Women in particular tend to feel guilty for inconveniencing anybody else<\/strong>, or they <strong>feel weak if they cannot \u201cdo it all.\u201d <\/strong>This guilt and shame must be overcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hollis reminds us that <strong>we each have an entire village that we can turn to when we need help<\/strong>. This help can come in different forms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Emotional support<\/strong> from your loved ones when you feel like quitting<\/li><li><strong>Financial support<\/strong> to help you get that college degree<\/li><li><strong>Child care, help around the house<\/strong>, and so on<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>The Connection Between Help and Judgment<\/strong><br><br>Bren\u00e9 Brown (shame expert and author of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/app\/book\/daring-greatly\/introduction\"><em>Daring Greatly<\/em><\/a>) discusses in a 2013 interview with Oprah the connection between help and self-judgment. According to Brown, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oprah.com\/oprahs-lifeclass\/dr-brene-brown-on-judging-those-who-ask-for-help-video\">if you judge yourself when you ask for help, then you\u2019re also judging others when you <em>offer<\/em> help<\/a>. This can cause a bit of cognitive dissonance, as you\u2019re likely thinking: <em>I don\u2019t judge others when they ask for help!<\/em> However, consider this alternative viewpoint:<br><br>Try instead to view the need for help as a transaction. Acknowledge that you will help when somebody else needs it, and you will receive help when you need it. Taking this perspective will release any shame that you might otherwise feel when asking for help.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Say No<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond asking for help when you need it, Hollis\u2019s second way of advocating for yourself is saying \u201cno.&#8221; As she explains, <strong>declining requests without guilt allows you to reserve your energies for the areas of your life that are most important to you.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hollis recommends you <strong>start by making a simple list of your priorities. <\/strong>Then, <strong>if the request isn\u2019t going to serve your priorities<\/strong>, Hollis says you should <strong>politely decline<\/strong>. When you\u2019ve decided to say no, Hollis recommends you do it <strong>as soon as possible, be polite but honest, and give a clear and firm \u201cno\u201d <\/strong>(not a probably or maybe).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Reframing Your Thinking: A No Is a Yes<\/strong><br><br>In <em>Essentialism: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/essentialism-book\/\">The Disciplined Pursuit of Less<\/a><\/em>, Greg McKeown argues that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/app\/book\/essentialism\/part-3\">for every \u201cno\u201d you deliver, you\u2019re really saying \u201cyes\u201d to something else<\/a>.&nbsp;<br><br>For example, if your friends invite you to dinner and it would mean missing family game night, instead of thinking, \u201cI\u2019m <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/saying-no\/\">saying no<\/a> to my friends,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/reframe-your-thoughts\/\">reframe your thinking<\/a> into, \u201cI\u2019m saying yes to my family.\u201d&nbsp;<br><br>In this same chapter, he also offers some creative ways to decline an invitation for those who feel the word \u201cno\u201d is too harsh or daunting. For instance, <strong>offer an alternative.<\/strong> If you are uncomfortable completing the request, try offering what you <em>are<\/em> willing to do. For example, if a friend asks to borrow your car to drive to the airport, try saying, \u201cI can\u2019t do that, but I will take you to the airport if you\u2019d like.\u201d It shows that you want to help, but you still keep your boundary.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are the top three habits of successful women?
