A positive attitude: Attitude is everything and I believe a woman should be a shining example of a positive attitude. I have seen beautiful ladies who are supposed to command respect being disrespected simply because they have foul attitudes. In my opinion, if you have a foul attitude then, you should not be considered successful because that attitude could make you lose everything in a matter of time.
High-esteem and Confidence: This might as well be the beginning of success for a woman. If a woman lacks these, not only will she be unable to brave it, but she’ll also be made a doormat by anyone who wishes to.
Self-discipline: A successful woman must show control of herself in all aspects of her life.
Embraces her identity: We can’t deny our nature.
Our generation is so busy trying to prove that women can do everything men can do, women are losing the unique feminine qualities that set us apart. Women weren’t created to do everything a man can do… Women were created to do everything a man can’t do. - Unknown.
A woman should be nurturing, powerful, compassionate, persevering, strong, bold, fierce, tender-hearted, and her meekness not misplaced for weakness. I believe that a successful woman should embrace her identity and not one who cowers under pressure and becomes something she’s not.
Financial freedom: This is a very important point to me. To me, a successful woman must have attained financial freedom. You may not necessarily have acquired landed properties, but you should be able to take care of your basic needs without sucking up to anyone. This isn’t intended to pressure anyone, but I believe you are on your way to success if you are working towards achieving financial freedom. When you have it, you don’t need to compromise your standards in a lot of cases.
Content: A successful woman, by all standards, should be content. Being content saves you from a lot of mess. The reason a lot of ladies have landed in deep trouble is simply discontentment. It doesn’t mean you shouldn’t strive to be better; it only means you won’t be pressured into doing the unspeakable just because you want something someone else has.

Being a successful woman comes with a lot of hard work but when you become one, you do not need to preach for others to see it.
