Mary Pagano had a a live chat with Stellar Woman magazine on life, success and being a stellar woman.
What are your attributes of an ideal stellar woman?
I think a stellar woman first of all is kind. she’s smart , she’s healthy , she’s giving, she’s considerate and she stands up for herself. She says no when she needs to , I mean we can’t say yes to everything, and she’s focused on the things that are most important and she gives service to her community you know, to her friends and family around her.
Do you have a life mantra?
Well yeah, I would have to go back to Glinda the good witch you know, that used to be when I was at Motorola, NEVER GIVE UP.
Please leave one challenge for other Stellar Woman Magazine readers to help them develop strategies for success for 2022 and beyond?
Be happy and be kind, because if you are kind and your always kind to others and your helpful, you will be happy and once you have kindness and happiness down, then you will feel good about anything you want to take in. Everything is easy, everything is easy and quite frankly we are here to be happy. So be kind, just that simple.
