Media Personality Toke Makinwa has encouraged women to stop asking for permission to be what they are created to be. She posted this on her insta stories and honestly, if you are one person that never agreed with whatever Toke says, You will find no reason not to like this words of wisdom. There are women who make so much money but aren’t bold enough to say that they want a vacation or to even admit that they can afford to sponsor their vacation.
Why? Fear!
There are women who earn so much but scared of spending much on themselves, no liver to shop expensive items so no one inquires about or talks about their money.
Do you as a woman need permission to be great? If you can afford it, do you need permission to live the life of your dreams?
Do you keep yourself below what you are to make some people happy with you?
RIGHT TO DREAM BIG
Everyone has a right to dream and to work hard to achieve that dream, whether male or female.
When you succeed, you deserve to comfortably enjoy the ‘fruits’ of your labour.
Never let anyone put a limit to your dreams and never let yourself be confined to a box.
Always remember that success knows no gender!
Spend money on whatever you want, as long as you can afford it. There are people who will be attracted to you for your strength and independent mind.

Dear women
Stop asking for permission to be great. No one will give it to you.
Take it, go out there and be awesome!
Stop waiting for the perfect situation. Sometimes all you’ve got is now.
Jump, you may fall or you just might fly. Either way, you’ll never know if you don’t take a chance.
Buy that house
Buy your dream car. Go on that vacation.
Don’t let anyone tell you it will scare men away. The right man will respect all you’ve worked hard to achieve on your own and be inspired that in his “man’s world” (So they think) You did it.
The ones that run away had nothing to offer in the first place.
Stop apologizing for being woman enough to choose you over toxic situations.
You bare not selfish, it is your right to dream big and to achieve even more!
She preaches.
