Inspiring Words to Help Third World Women

If you were asked to create a single sentence to inspire others, how would you answer? The question came unexpectedly in an email. I love challenges that require more than an off-the-cuff answer... You?

Intriguingly, the human brain leaps to challenges like the one Jasmine Tragas brought to women around the globe. My inspiring words could help Jasmine's innovative project, destined to seed a micro-credit program for women in the Philippines. To think a quote might help women entrepreneurs in the third world, energized my noodle's working memory. Later that evening, an "aha" for a motivational quote surfaced from the back burner of my mind.

As a voluntary Ambassador at Women’s Opportunity, Jasmine is reaching out to women all over the world to participate in a project with the theme, "A Woman's Investment" with the aim of creating a slide show and raising $10,000. The slide show's just published...

Joanna Young speaks about the challenges she faced when creating her inspirational quote... though at first she found that Jasmin's words made her feel "optimistic, confident and connected."

I'm curious... What would your "one-sentence" quote be?
