Transcript

Skills every single woman should know and they all take less than a week to learn. Number one, learn basic interior design. Not buy cute decor, but learn scale, lighting, how high to hang a curtain, and how to make three different light sources work together. You should be able to walk into tier sad room and figure out exactly why it makes you sad. Number two, learn basic clothing repair. This can be sewing a button, fix a loose hem, steaming a blazer, removing and stain without completely destroying the fabric. This one teeny tiny skill will save you a ridiculously amount of money. Number three, learn five basic home repairs. How to use a drill, a hammer, learn how to hang a frame rate, reset the breaker. And you can learn all of these from YouTube. Number four, learn how to worst. Learn how much food to make for six people. How to make a room feel welcoming. And learn how to introduce people who didn't know each other prior. Number five, learn how to take an actual good photo of someone else. Find good lighting, check the lens, step back, straighten the horizon. Please stop taking photos of other people from their worst possible angle, and this way, they will also like you more and also trust you. Last one, learn how to learn anything because in order to grow in life, you cannot stop learning. And a great system that I like to use is every single time that I'm curious about something, I dump all my research and notes or even YouTube videos into Quizlet, and then it will automatically make the entire study guides, flash good sets, quizzes even, and even podcasts if I wanted to. And learning to do it with a system and as efficient as possible is the best skill that you can learn. Because once you know how to teach yourself, not knowing how to do something stops becomes a limitation.
