My parents are my biggest support throughout all of my decisions. When I first decided to quit my job to pursue other interests they were always there for me even if they didn't understand why I was taking such a huge risk. I am only child so my parents are my rock.

And my best friends because they are an incredible support and I know I can always rely on them to get through the good times and bad.

i am really proud to say that my husband is my biggest support,not only because he takes on his share (and more) of the tactical, everyday bs, but because he supports my professional choices - be it working 20 hours/day or part-time, he truly wants me to do what makes me happy.

how mushy! ew! :)

SPANX, ladies are we talking about the SPANX undergarments here?  LOL, that was too clever.  I dont' use SPANX but if I did I'm sure I would give them Kudos too!   My biggest support in my life has been my mom.  She is always unconditional and I love her for it!  I also have to mention my fiance', he backs my play no matter what!  Love ya Anthony.

My great aunt Judy.  She is the one person who is always there for me, and believes that I can do anything.

Behind every successful woman is...


   ...a host of critics, nay-sayers, antagonizers and skeptics whom she has proven wrong!

Behind every successful woman is...  her team: parents, friends, colleagues- experiences good and bad.  A successful woman learns from mistakes and appreciates the value of them, she doesn't just try to forget and move past them.

I can't really say I have many supporters. My son is always there to root me on, even at 10, he's my motivation. And I wouldn't be where I am in life if it were for God and  those who said I couldn't do it.

My parents,immideate family ,close friends.And I would attribute my success in life so far to my own hard work ,sincerity and determination.

I love that through adversity you have found where you are today...I think it takes pain to move us towards what we really want...love that your son motivates you!!!

My mother, my brother, my daughter and my best friend. I don't have an enormous amount of friends but the few that I do have are precious and would follow me to hell if I asked them to!

Has to be my husband and a few close friends......  they allow me that free-fall, I think that's the meaning of being supportive.

I thank God each day for the struggles, because without them, I may not be as determined to succeed as I am today.  Yes, he's my motivation, because I don't want him to have to look to sports players or people on tvo to find a positive role model. I want him to know what hard-work, determination, and God's grace can lead him. I want him to see what a strong woman looks like.So in striving to be his role model, I know I can't get lazy or give up...so he keeps me going....he's my motivation

I am what I am because my mother beleived in me, and she inspired me to be independent and strong. I am also greatly indebted to my daughter who at only five years has put that finishing touch to my life. Although there are much more areas in my life that needs refining I am greatful that my mother has lead an exemplary life for others to emulate. I have told her many times that I appreciate her zeal and determination to strive for excellence despite the odds. My mom, she is my father as well: what a wonderful package!

All those who said, "You're crazy, you'll never be able to do that." Yes, they spurred me to prove them that although the probability is low, it is still possible. I'll never let the world hold me back from my dreams. =D

My boys. 17 and 13 years old. When ever I've felt like giving up I look at them and see every reason to push on.  Without even knowing it they inspire me to reach for more and to become better at whatever I am doing. I'm a single mom now, for the past 18 months, things are very rough financially and emotionally.  Belive me, I  can feel the burn!!!!   (from the quote topic)  But it's important to me that my boys can be proud of who and what I am.

Behind every successful woman is....a prospective mind.


I have critically learned from exigent circumstances that I am responsible for my success and consider mistakes along the way, to be temporary hic cups. Some of those hic cups required ‘catagenesis’ or an adaptive, creative, reformative period after breakdown, for rebirth and renewal.


And when I need to feel support, I reach out and call friends and volunteer at the animal shelter.

 My mom. Even though at times she hardly understand some of my career changes, she always said, "As long as you are happy."

I wish more parents were like that. I'm a geologists and archaeologist. My mom is horribly disappointed since she is a creationist.
