The path in seven days

Doubt is not a verdict on your worth.

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.

Eleanor Roosevelt1884–1962

The historical background

As a child, Eleanor Roosevelt was considered plain in her own family; her mother called her "Granny". She was shy, lost both parents early and for years did not dare speak in public.

The way into the light

She became one of her country's most effective speakers and chaired the commission that drafted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The shyness never fully left – she spoke anyway.

Your question for today

Whose judgement of you have you quietly adopted?
