Everyone wants to be successful in life. We are always looking for that one piece of advice that would make a difference. Dear Success Seeker is that advice. Wright has assembled letters from over 80 women of various backgrounds to share their wisdom. The letters are motivational and ham packed with “pearls of wisdom”. Some of the inspirational nuggets are:
Sandra Yancy – “Give first, share always”
Robin Wolaner – “Allow for serendipity – you can do it all just not all at once. Follow your interests and values, the money will take care of itself.”
Susan L. Taylor – “Do what you love”
Faye Wattleton – “Be informed. Be vigilant! Don’t shrink from power. Support other women. Be an independent thinker.”
Mae C. Jemison – “Always remember who you intend to be”
Dear Success Seeker should have a prominent spot on every female’s desk. The letters should be highlighted, dog-eared, paper clipped or adorned with post-it-notes. The words should be passed down from generation to generation. Dear Success Seeker would make the perfect graduation, birthday, or a simple just because gift.
