When I speak on powerful women I don’t mean it from an angle of strength or even a independence, I mean it from a decision making standpoint. Men literally eat up all of the decision-making power and women sit in the shadows balancing their day-to-day schedule out. Why is this a thing that we’ve come to solidify in American culture... or even world culture? I understand men have always controlled who did what and set the standards on what qualifies a person to perform a specific job or duty. With that in mind and the world making leaps closer to a more open work force and leadership why do we still look down upon women being in powerful decision making positions? I personally believe more women should be in powerful positions because they have the ability to be subjective in cases where men who need to be subjective in decision-making position are not. But this same strength is the same reason why women are froze out of powerful positions. People believe their emotions will cloud their ultimate judgment. It goes into supporting our women as long as they are qualified to perform the job in which they want. Society as taught man to be objective 98%, indifferent 1%, and subjective 1% of the time. This is why men hold a majority of high-ranking positions across the board without anybody questioning why. We have to start batting a eye and getting behind our women, lobbying for them to hold Principle, superintendent, president, congress, judgeships, commissioner, CEO, CFO, COO etc. positions. How can we combat the shut out of women in high power positions? What steps would or could we take to get the ball rolling? We have to even the playing field because a lot of women are highly if not overly qualified for the high ranking positions that they want to take but know they wont get because of their gender and a lesser to equally qualified man. Depression and Millennial - Americans do not take mental health seriously enough. According to the NIMH, as many as 45% of mental health cases go untreated in this country, at a total potential cost of $147 billion per year. - What is controversial — or at least uncomfortable — is the idea that millennials suffer from more mental health issues than any previous generation. This challenges some of the common assertions that millennials are entitled, lazy and lack a work ethic or respect for The Dollar. - To begin with, let’s dispel with the idea that depression is “merely” “feeling sad.” Depression is a recognized and recursive disease, as misunderstood as it is debilitating.
