Michelle Obama, the former First Lady, who is one of the most famous female in the world, is an intelligent, determined and independent woman.
Before she entered the White House, she was a successful lawyer. Though living behind his husband, President Obama, when in White House, she still shone brightly as an smart individual.
Focusing on education and healthy diet of childhren at school, she leveraged various resources as First Lady to this undertaking．She even planted vegetables in the White House garden. With a lot time, energy and promotion, she has achieved visible accomplishments when she left White House.
02
Recently, she published her autobiography, which hits the best-selling book list in a few weeks.
She visited London for the promotion of her book, and talked a number of things of her life. In the earlier day of her trip, she revisited a school in north London, which she said it was this school that inspired her to focus on education as First Lady.

In her speech in London, she spoke openly about her life without hiding internal emotions and facts and feelings. She said she cared about comments from other people, and always asked herself whether she was good enough to be in the position she is. While worrying about doing something wrong or inappropriately, she couldn’t sleep well at night.
Actually, there is a name for it, Imposter Syndromes. It is a feeling that a person thinks one day people will realize that he is not good at what he is doing, he will let everybody down. But things of this syndrome are not justified or it is as a result of society labels us.
Maybe most of us have this feeling more or less, it is just a lack of confidence in themselves. Sometimes we don’t need to be too strict to ourselves. Take it easy, and things might be going well.
04
One important message of her speech is empowerment. She said we always make mistakes that working class folks are not talented or skillful in the own right. It is completely wrong.
She is keen to talk about this subject and inspire people to do things they like or dream. We should not assume people in connection with the organization they work for, people they work with or social group they come from.
People can do anything in their own right with their own skills and abilities. It is obviously discrimination when assuming things on surface factors.

Michelle Obama is a great lady, brave, intelligent and caring. She inspires and encourages a lot of people, women paticular. She acts as a role model for many females.
The most important thing from her is just being yourself. I like her, as many people do.
