Ted.com Sheryl Sandberg: Why We Have Too Few Women Followers

     More women continuously are "dropping out" so to speak. Instead of women sitting back and letting other people take advantage of them, they should come out of their shell and speak up; express how they really feel about certain things. As women, we underestimate our own abilities. This is such a powerful and negative observation because it's true. We are so worried about attributing our success to external factors as oppose to attributing our success to ourselves like men would do, as Sheryl Sandberg mentioned in the video, that we don't acknowledge our accomplishments as much as men do. Another problem women have is making decisions too early. They seem to think too much ahead of themselves that they forget what is actually happening at the moment or what is to come in the near future and may result in regretful decision making in the future. More women need to sit at the table and be acknowledged for their accomplishments, speak up about their rights and applaud themselves for the amount of effort they put into their hard work.
