Not only as a mere ceremony, but the commemoration of Heroes’ Day, which is usually celebrated on November 10, needs to be accompanied by real action. In this modern era, everyone, including women, can certainly become a hero according to their field of expertise. Starting from education, creative industries, to technology, such as social media.
Even though every woman has potential, not all of them have the courage to make the decision to create work because they are still hampered by feelings of insecurity and overthinking about what other people say.
The following are tips taken from the Verywellmind site and the Social Psychology book from Baron and Branscombe so that you are ready to become an independent woman in making decisions.
1. Don’t Limit Your Creativity

One of the keys to becoming an independent woman, Beauties need to be brave and have the right to free your creative ideas in your work. You need to dare to take risks, regardless of what other people think about your work.
For example, if you want to be a content creator who discusses issues related to the world of fashion, mental health or culinary, maybe someone will be busy sneering at you and looking for weaknesses in your ideas.
Instead of getting lost in feelings of insecurity, Beauties should use this pouting as an opportunity for you to develop your creative ideas and don’t stop just because other people underestimate you. Don’t limit your creativity, even if your work is laughed at by others.
2. Want to learn new skills

Having perseverance in your field is certainly a good thing, Beauties. Because, consistency is the key to achieving your goals or desires. But to have the courage to make decisions without feeling excessive anxiety, you need to manage it by learning new skills. As a fashion designer, you can also learn basic skills about public speaking, learn to edit videos and interact socially with various people of different personality types.
Of course this will make you more confident, because you are equipped with a number of skills that support your main skill, Beauties.
3. Have a principle that you are irreplaceable

Beauties, you need to instill the mindset that you are irreplaceable. Even though there are other people who are more experienced in the field you are working in. But you need to be sure that you have values that cannot be compared carelessly with other people. Just like during meetings at the office or campus, your ideas and opinions have the right to be taken into account, your decisions in developing your career also need to be respected by yourself.
You are also free and have the right to choose the field you want to pursue more deeply to hone your potential, although other people can still provide suggestions for your development. But the final decision is of course up to you, Beauties.
4. Confidence in being yourself

You can be inspired by other people, but that doesn’t mean you have to be someone else. Beauties may have a business in the same culinary field as a famous chef or your idol chef, but you have to have the courage to find your uniqueness and be yourself. For example, dare to be creative with dishes or cakes that other chefs cannot produce.
When you are proud of the abilities you have, this will form self-efficacy or the belief that you have the skills and are able to develop with the works you want to create.
5. Mingle with New Connections from Various Fields

Having the courage to mix with various connections does have its own challenges. Especially if your social connections are extensive, but they have a communication style and background that is different from yours.
There are various possibilities such as not connecting, being insecure when the connection brings you down or saying things that make you unmotivated and mentally affected.
Beauties can choose to manage and decide whether they want to listen to people who support you or belittle you. You can also improve yourself as far as you feel it is necessary. But the best person who knows you is of course yourself. Good luck, to become an independent woman who dares to make decisions, Beauties!
