Women tend to generalize, to synthesize, to take a broader, more holistic, more contextual perspective of any issue. They tend to think in webs of factors, not straight lines, so I coined a term for this broad, contextual, feminine way of reasoning: web thinking.

The 411 on Selecting and Achieving Your Goals
Do you know what you truly desire to accomplish, obtain, or become in life? Not just a vague idea, but what you really want to do?
