Summary

This quote by Louis Pasteur highlights the importance of preparation in making the most of opportunities. When we are observant and alert, we increase the likelihood of recognizing and benefiting from chance occurrences. However, this is only possible when our minds are prepared through knowledge, skills, and a curious mindset. By acquiring the necessary knowledge and staying prepared, we are better able to discern meaningful patterns, make connections, and seize opportunities that may come our way. Preparedness sets the stage for our minds to be ready to perceive, interpret, and take advantage of the unexpected occurrences that may present themselves in life.

My father respected and admired my mother and was a person who was always standing by my side, encouraging me to do more and believed in my capacity. So in that sense, my own experience was very good in becoming an empowered woman. From early on, I carried that strong message: 'You can do it.' So I never had any doubt that women can do a lot.
