This is a fab story about overcoming societal expectations, slowly believing in yourself, going for it, and finding success and love.
Mrs Eisenberg is definitely a force to be reckoned with and freely shares her life wisdom with young Toni.
Life lessons from Mrs Eisenberg:
- We often overestimate how much we can accomplish in a day but underestimate how much we can achieve in a year.
- it never occurs to rich people that they might actually lose at something. When you’re poor, the opposite is true: it never occurs to you that you may win.
- Stand up straight and own your answer when speaking, because if you don’t believe in you, no one else will either.
- Have the courage to live a big life even without a safety net.
And a final one:
- I didn’t want you to need me. I need you to want me.
I loved how this story provided romance, business, and life lessons all beautifully mixed together.
PS. Don't skip over the Foreword as there are some gems there too!
