For over 25 years Anna Wintour has ruled the world through fashion, becoming one of the most influential individuals in the business.
Through her years as Editor-In-Chief of American Vogue she has become not just a fashion icon but in many ways has shown herself to be The Voice of what is chic, new and the next big thing in Fashion. Just last year she added a new title to her prestigious achievements: Artistic Director for Vogue's publisher Conde' Nast.
It would be unfair, however, to just look at Wintour as just the most famous Fashion Editor in the world. She is also an example of what hard work and dedication can get you. A divorced mother of two, she continues to push forward in her life, dedicated to what she loves and showing others not only why they should do the same but how they can do it.
“Just be true to yourself, and listen as much as one is able to to other people whose opinions you respect and look up," she says, "but in the end it has to come from you. You can’t really worry too much by looking to the left and the right about what the competition is doing or what other people in your field are doing. It has to be a true vision.”
May we all become as invested in our own vision as Ms. Wintour. As she says, it's all about timing---and there is no time like the present.
