Thoughts about the blog: Can women in tech have it all?

Today I read a blog that discuss the topic of "Can women in tech have it all?" Some comments are actually the response of the Sheryl Sandburg’s new book Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead.

I feel lots of the discussion resonated with me. Since we are in a special period that has not only a family to take care and kids to spend time with, but also a passion for the technology. I always appreciate those friends and colleagues who could offer a hand whenever I needed.

• Life is about decisions... We do the best we can, and we’re not perfect. ...A lot of people lose a lot of time with coulda-woulda-shoulda, questioning decisions they made. 
• When someone needs a hand, and you have one free, offer her yours. You just never know when you’ll be the one who needs it.
• The most important thing about raising a family with two working parents is to clearly define roles for each life/family stage. The second most important thing is deciding what household/child services to outsource.
• Be comfortable with uncertainty. Be willing to adjust course and slow down or speed up your career as needed. 
• Don’t let someone else bully you into thinking that working 24-hours-a-day will lead you down the path of enlightenment. 
• There is nothing so important that it would warrant missing your child’s birthday. 

Thanks Tereza Nemessanyi, Melissa Demsak, and Jennifer McFadden for your precious suggestions! It definitely lighted up the road ahead for me!
