Lesson #4: Infuse Your Company with a Survival Mentality
“I started The Body Shop in 1976 simply to create a livelihood for myself and my two daughters, while my husband, Gordon, was trekking across the Americas,” recalls Roddick. “I had no training or experience and my only business acumen was Gordon’s advice to take sales of £300 a week. Nobody talks of entrepreneurship as survival, but that's exactly what it is and what nurtures creative thinking.”
2.3 Women workers and the work of women: Working Out of Poverty
Today’s girl child is tomorrow’s older woman worker, and it is her opportunities and experiences now that will shape her ability to obtain and maintain decent work throughout her adult life, and enjoy security and protection in her old age. If girls, compared to boys, face negative cultural attitudes and practices and discrimination from birth, they will grow up to be women with greater constraints and few choices and opportunities. In turn, they will be less able to influence positively the lives of their daughters and sons, so that poverty is likely to be passed on from one generation to the next.

The Choice is Ours
A sociologist was researching the long-term effects of family violence. He interviewed two sons of an alcoholic and highly abusive father. Both brothers were now in their sixties. One son looked back on a life of alcoholism, violence, failed marriages, joblessness, prison terms, suicide attempts, and poverty.
Trust Comes First
I had the rare and wonderful opportunity to meet with Stephen R. Covey and his two talented sons, Stephen M.R. and Sean Covey. I asked all three of them to talk to me about how trust is built--how do they build trust as a Covey organization?
10 thing I wish I learned before 40
Life has a way of teaching us some lessons. I just wish I had learned these lessons a whole lot sooner than I did. This article is dedicated to my 3 sons. These young men are entering the real world, and I hope they learn these lessons faster than I did.
