Winning advice: 2 Things Women Do That Seem Charming, But Actually Turn Guys Off

2. You minimize yourself​

This is when you use the word "just" to describe yourself.

Years ago, when working in management, a team leader was outside my office waiting to speak to me as I was on the phone. When I hung up the phone, I asked, "Who’s next?"

The team leader entered my office and said, "Oh, it’s just me."

"Just you? You mean my team leader who keeps her team on task and running smoothly, giving me peace of mind knowing that work is getting done efficiently, who always has a positive attitude and is an asset to the organization?" I responded in all seriousness.

Lose the "just" when describing yourself.

Another woman once told me about the small group of ladies she gets together with to work out. She said she felt intimidated because the women she trained with were successful doctors and lawyers, and she was "just a mom."

Just a mom? Moms rock! I would know, I’m married to one, and she’s a rock star. I know how much work, sacrifice, effort, and love moms give their children, and there is nothing trivial about it.

I think I turned in "just a mom" for "Domestic Engineer" after being over exposed to people who didn't approve of a homemaker's role.

I turned in "Domestic Engineer" sometime this year, when I no longer had time to cook or clean on any regular intervals. Then my duties became a title: I am George; Keeper Of Chaos.
