Photograh by Canwest News When you are a woman, people assume you will reach an age when you have to get pregnant. Don't you dare saying you don't want children or you will automatically receive negative feedbacks and judgements. Even a taxi driver can give you his opinion and try to convince you to have children, true story. (yes, when it comes to women's reproductive choice everybody is entitled to express their thoughts/opinions on the matter as incredible as it is!)
So, for those women that don't want children, just say "I am not ready YET" or a simple "I don't want children FOR NOW". The adverbs of time reassure people that their vision is "the norm" and that it's just not the time for you, yet.
Same thing applies for different topics. Well, not really similar, but I needed an introduction that catch your attention!

When you take a decision that differs from the majority, either in business or personally, do not loose time trying to justify yourself. Many people won't understand and some don't even want to understand. Avoid troubles, give them what they want to hear "your perspective/point of view might help me". You are alone taking the decision and assuming the risks and responsibilities, so your vision must be the only driving factor. Have a clear vision, listen to people's advice, but don't waste time on trying to make people agree with your decisions. The results you expect from those decisions are much more important to focus on.
