5 TED Talks Every Young Woman Needs To Watch

Taken from licdn.com.

1. "How to stop screwing yourself over" by Mel Robbins

For those times when you feel like you have been really slacking off in all areas of life, watch this talk. Mel will get you off your ass and back to the grind. You may not be able to change your past, but you do have the power to take actions to change your future.

2. "On being wrong" by Kathryn Schulz

If you've been putting yourself down for being wrong about anything, you should listen to this talk. The power of being wrong is far superior than what it really means to be right. Schulz will change your mind about right and wrong and life in general.

3. "Embrace your inner girl" by Eve Ensler

Have you been told that you are too emotional, sensitive, or girly? Eve Ensler makes a great point about being "too emotional." Find out the true power of what being too emotional can do, and why we should be praising our "inner girl" instead of hiding her.

4. "Looks aren't everything" by Cameron Russell

Have you ever wanted to be a supermodel and see your face on billboards and magazines? Cameron Russell will change your mind, and your perception of beauty. Here's why you should be striving to be a CEO instead of a size zero.

5. "The person you really need to marry" by Tracy McMillan

Have you ever wondered if you've already met the person you are going to marry? After watching this talk, I can guarantee that you already have. Tracy will show you exactly the way to a perfect marriage, full of happiness, and love.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
