Lesson 2: Your education is your power

by Yusuf Mahroofah · Girl you can do this: My journey to building myself .

As a woman, the world will try to tell you that your value is in your body, your beauty, or your ability to get a man. Do not listen. Your education is your power. Your skills are your power. Your independence is your power. No one can take that from you. Hold onto your books. Hold onto your dreams. Hold onto your career. A man can leave. Money can finish. But your education stays with you forever.
