72 The Women I Like, Motivation Hustle
b'I\\u2019m going to talk about the kind of women I like and motivation hustle. No, no, no \\u2013 this is not an eHarmony or Match.com episode, not at all. By the way, kudos and thank you very much to Trishia and Julie for urging me to do this episode. I had these discussions, saying this was going to be a future episode, and they said they were really anxious to hear it, so here goes.\\n\\nThe business women that is has motivation hustle develops drive like an immigrant.\\nWhat I\\u2019m talking about is women, as we\\u2019re talking about women going into business, being entrepreneurs, entrepreneurial, success-oriented, driven, etc. There\\u2019s a lot of things that happen in a woman\\u2019s life that\\u2019s a little different than a guy\\u2019s. In particular, first, many, many women will start out, and as they enter college, you\\u2019ll notice a difference. Go to any college, if somebody wants to argue with me over this, just go to any university, and you\\u2019ll see the engineering courses, the ECS electrical engineering computer science, computer science, mathematics, etc. \\u2013 the statistics are filled with guys. Generally, the women have a much larger majority in the things, whether it be arts, sociology, social work, etc., that feel-good. The key difference they found it in colleges, is that guys tend to pick things that are going to earn them more money later on. Women tend to pick things that feel better or feel good. By the way, before you send me anything, I know this is not universal, it\\u2019s not everybody, but it is very largely biased towards those two categories.\\n\\nWhat happens? Many of the factors\\u2014and this is actually kind of crazy\\u2014many of the factors are because women are thinking more in terms of both marriage, even though they may not admit it. They realize marriage, family, etc. is going to lead to somebody else, the husband, etc. taking the major role for income. They\\u2019re more geared towards other things. I thought this changed about 40 years ago, but apparently it hasn\\u2019t a great deal.\\n\\nActually, when you think about this, this is absolutely crazy, because here, if 50% of marriages fail and the mother usually\\u2014I should say almost always\\u2014has custody of the kids \\u2013 Hell! It\\u2019s much more important for the women to pick those higher-paying careers with a greater return on the college degree. They should be concerned about that when they\\u2019re younger.\\n\\nHere\\u2019s what happens when eventually the families are formed and that case, which I would like to say is unlikely, but where somebody is divorced. This ends up, in some cases, leading to superstar women. But first let me explain that. When there\\u2019s a divorce\\u2026 I\\u2019m going to break down what happens to women into three categories. One of which is, and you\\u2019ve all seen these women who are absolutely decimated. They spend their time whining and complaining, etc. Unfortunately, there\\u2019s too many people that help enable that.\\n\\nA middle category is a category of women who are trying to constantly balance having some income or as much income as they can, taking care of their kids, and being at all of the events, and everything else. Unfortunately, those also have a lot holding them back, because of taking care of the kids and all of the other things that are involved, but they\\u2019re doing as much as they can.\\n\\nThere\\u2019s a third category of women who comes into a whole different drive, and in here is what I really have as the purpose for this episode. There are really two purposes. One for business owners anywhere to help identify the women who are really just absolutely wonderful to have to work with, etc., those are the women I like. The second purpose is a signal to the women to realize and reflect a little bit on some of the choices that are around you. Now, I\\u2019m not here to paint any pretty pictures. I just want to help and see people succeed.\\n\\nThis third category of women is what I would refer to as a new immigrant class. That is: She stands there, usually setting up her own business of some kind, and she will not let that fail.'
