			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you know the answer to this question?  Many women look to their role models for the answer.  We all have some role models that we look up to and try to imitate.  What makes them our role models is different for each and everyone.  For many women it is the quality of showing passion and being able to take care of others.  And also being taken care of <strong>by</strong> others.  This is the image of the great maternal figure that nurtures the family and is taken care of financially by the great paternal breadwinner.</p>
<p>As I have mentioned in my previous blogs this is what we have been taught to admire.  The story was that the women that are good at taking care of others are worth the most.  Centuries ago this was very important for women’s survival as their value was measured according to their care giving abilities.  It was said that no man would leave a good caregiver.</p>
<p>The old days are gone and the story was just that a story, even though it affected women directly.  In today’s world, women have to care of themselves.  People can be grateful for the things that you do for them.  But, and this is a big but, you still have to take care of yourself.  Unfortunately, the stories haven’t changed much since the old days.  What has changed really drastically is reality.  In this new reality you have to take care of yourself and to do so you have to know what you need and want.</p>
<p>To be able to realize what your needs and wants are you have to ignore all of those voices that keep on telling you that you shouldn’t ask for too much.  How will it serve you to ask for less for yourself?  The people that you feel will think less of you if you do ask for more will not be there to see the results.  These kinds of people are not good for you.  Other people will be pissed at you for not taking care of yourself.  <strong>People that really care for you will always want the best for you.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Now when you ask yourself what you need and want, what will your answer be?</strong> Think about how your answer will help you start living a <em>Life of Abundance</em>.  This is the life you want to live.  So, what is you answer to this question?</p>
<p>Love and peace,</p>
