Man, am I good!

Friendly, compassionate, intuitive - these feminine qualities are great, no question. But there are a few talents that one should look for from men to make life easier.

When men go out the door in the morning, it looks like this: man opens the door. Man walks through the door. Before we women cross the threshold, there is still a thought checklist in front of us: Do I have everything? What if it rains? Should I take another umbrella for my colleague? Foresight and compassionate thinking are our strengths . But sometimes they cost a lot of time and nerves. So here is a short appeal, which talents one should look away from men:

1. DENK RATIONAL!

Sounds logical. But we are damned hard, because our gut feeling sparkles in between. Men rely on facts and try to find a clear solution. They like a system that solves problems. Women approach things more intuitively and perceive them more complexly. The new route is best done by asking yourself the question: What do I really want to achieve?

2. SAY IT DIRECT!

We are world champions in communicating. Only in one discipline are men ahead: directness. Because we usually find them too harsh. Women communicate more socially. Pack your wishes and bad news rather than just pop them on the table. If you really want something - or by no means -, the motto is: Out with the language! And straightforward. Result: misunderstandings excluded.

3. CELEBRATE YOURSELF!

Sure, sometimes that's not so easy with self-love . It does not have to. No one finds themselves irresistible 24 hours a day. What men master well on stupid days: a relaxed "so what?" Attitude. Then the outfit is not great today, what's up? Perfectionism only builds up pressure. And frustrated.

4. TRUST YOU!

A hole must be drilled in the wall. Women ask themselves: Can I do that? Men ask: where is the drill? Cliche? Yes, of course, but men are and are usually more self-confident. They trust in their strengths. And so go into the role of the leader. Because: Those who feel safe radiate that too and gain respect. So let's dare our abilities more! This works best with practice. The more we succeed, the more confident we feel.

5. GO A RISK!

While our friend with his half-knowledge smalltalks by the party, we often hold back - afraid to say something stupid. Men basically have a stronger need to profile themselves. And therefore they are more willing to take a risk. Women prefer to weigh and play through all scenarios in the head so long, until they eventually get scared of their own courage. It is so liberating, if you turn off the brooder and get used to something new.

And if it goes wrong? Can you still look at a trick of men: do not take everything personally. One should try to distinguish between the situation and oneself. We can always rely on a great female strength: humor. Let's laugh about ourselves - and plunge into the next adventure!
