If I didn't write in my journal every couple of days, I felt like I was going to burst. Later I learned the research about how important journaling can be to recovering from trauma and grief. That was definitely true for me.

More quotes by Sheryl Sandberg
We know when we use the full talents of our population we're more productive. And we know that when people really feel like they can have flexible lives, they're better employees.
Sheryl Sandberg
Getting from point A to point Z can be daunting unless you remember that you don’t have to get from A to Z. You just have to get from A to B. Breaking big dreams into small steps is the way to move forward.
Sheryl Sandberg
Don't be afraid to ask the 'dumb' question, everyone else will be relieved you had the guts to ask!
Sheryl Sandberg
Women are not making it to the top. A hundred and ninety heads of state nine are women. Of all the people in parliament in the world, thirteen per cent are women. In the corporate sector, women at the top - C-level jobs, board seats - tops out at fifteen, sixteen per cent.
Sheryl Sandberg
The best way to make room for both life and career is to make choices deliberately-to set limits and stick to them.
Sheryl Sandberg
Our aspirations are really for women to be in half the leadership roles and men to be doing half the work of parenting.
Sheryl Sandberg
Don't let your fears overwhelm your desire. Let the barriers you face-and there will be barriers-be external, not internal. Fortune does favor the bold, and I promise that you will never know what you're capable of unless you try.
Sheryl Sandberg
As a country and as a world, we are not comfortable with women in leadership roles. We call little girls bossy.
Sheryl Sandberg
I want my daughter to have the choice not just to succeed, but to be liked for her accomplishments.
Sheryl Sandberg
I wish I were strong enough to ignore what others say, but experience tells me I often can't. Allowing myself to feel upset, even really upset, and then move on - that's something I can do.
Sheryl Sandberg
The most important thing - and I've said it a hundred times and I'll say it a hundred times - if you marry a man, marry the right one.
Sheryl Sandberg
Social media has created a historical shift from the historically powerful to the historically powerless. Now everyone has a voice.
Sheryl Sandberg
Without fear, women can pursue professional success and personal fulfillment-and freely choose one, or the other, or both.
Sheryl Sandberg
Facebook is great for women and men. We are enormously flexible. We care a lot about great opportunities for women, we push ourselves to make things as flexible as possible.
Sheryl Sandberg
Aggressive and hard-charging women violate unwritten rules about acceptable social conduct. Men are continually applauded for being ambitious and powerful and successful, but women who display these same traits often pay a social penalty. Female accomplishments come at a cost.
Sheryl Sandberg
We hold ourselves back in ways both big and small, by lacking self-confidence, by not raising our hands, and by pulling back when we should be leaning in.
Sheryl Sandberg
...parents who work outside the home are still capable of giving their children a loving and secure childhood. Some data even suggest that having two parents working outside the home can be advantageous to a child's development, particularly for girls.
Sheryl Sandberg
Real empathy is sometimes not insisting that it will be okay but acknowledging that it is not.
Sheryl Sandberg
Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that impact lasts in your absence. (Harvard Business School definition of leadership)
Sheryl Sandberg
I want women to get paid more. I want to teach them to negotiate so they get paid more.
Sheryl Sandberg
