How women differ from men: these wise words from Irina Khakamada can change your life

It’s the same rocket woman who manages everything. Once, Khakamada said that the secret of his achievements was his ability to skillfully combine feminine and masculine principles, using all the opportunities the world offers for his self-realization.

But what exactly did the journalist and writer borrow from the “strong half” of humanity? Once, Khakamada described it all in one sentence: “How are we women different from men? Men see the world with their own eyes. They build a career; they have their favorite toys: cars, computers; also they have a certain place for a woman. A woman does not look at this world with her own eyes. She looks through the eyes of a man. And then she complains that everything is thrown on her alone.

Indeed, have you ever met a man whose dream in life is to get married? Of course there can be, but they are always the exception and not the rule. Even little boys dream of something else – an interesting job, fantastic wealth or an adventure. And when they become adults, small changes: men always have their interests first.

Women very often behave differently: they begin to live the life of their loved ones, solve their problems, first suffer because of strangers, and only then – because of their own problems, think that they are inferior without “soul mate”. But is it possible to succeed when you exist for someone, and not for yourself? Unlikely!

Listen to the words of Irina – be the most important for yourself. This doesn’t mean you have to become a complete egoist. But whenever you do something for others, ask yourself the question: are you giving up something that is very important to you? Is it really necessary to run to cook dinner at home instead of going swimming the way you like it? Maybe the husband and children are able to fend for themselves? Don’t think of your hobbies as “toys” to be given up for “important” things. Do not give up on your ambitions, do not believe that a woman is above all the guardian of the home.

Don’t be afraid to change your perspective on the world and your place in it at any age. It’s never too late to start a new life – a life in which you will be responsible first for yourself, and only then – for others.
