Thoughts about a pledge for women....

I found something that I had cut out of a magazine awhile back... It is frome the theme of the October 2007 California Governors and First Lady's conference on women: "remarkable lives. Remarkable legacies... This was the convention pledge:1.) I pledge to "show up " in my life as myself, not as an imitation of anyone else. 2.) I pledge to avoid using the word "just" to describe myself. For an example, I won't say, "I'm just a mother." "I'm just a student." "I'm just an ordinary person."3.) I pledge to give myself ten minutes of silens and stillness every day to get in touch with my heart and hear my own voice. 4.) I pledge to use my voice to connect my dreams to my actions. 5.) I pledge to use my voice to empower myself and others. 6.) I pledge to serve my community at least once a year in a way that benefits other women. 7.) I pledge to ask myself, "Who am I?" "What do I believe in? What am I grateful for? What do I want my life to stand for?"8.) I pledge to sit down and write my own mission statement. 9.) I pledge to live my own legacy 10.) And pledge to pass it on. What are your thoughts about this? Which one or ones of these pledges seems to be what you want to work on? Why?

Thanks for reading this and for deciding to use them... I thought that it was inspirational for all women.
