Amen. A woman who read my horoscope chart decades ago told me I had come into this world to learn how to accept.
I keep finding myself putting myself into situations where I have to tough things out on my own, keeping a barrier between me and those who genuinely want to help me.
When will I finally, really accept that it’s OK to let others help?!

Sibel, your comment is both hard-hitting and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your experience with many of us who are also “loner” women. Hopefully, we create a community and override this silly habit.

Hi Marcia,
today i started to write a mission statement with the inspiration of steven covey’s first things first and 7 habits of highly effective people. while pondering over myself,my paradigms once more i realized also how much i avoided support, help, even advice from others. i had to be always in charge, knew everything, i could never be defeated. but with this trait there is one very negative outcome: it leaves very limited space for personal improvement and mechanic interpersonal relationships.

Going it alone is an impossible task.
