Malala was thrust into the global spotlight nearly a decade ago because of her unstoppable and courageous dedication to getting an education.<\/p>\n

Undeterred by the threat of speaking out publicly against the Taliban, Malala blogged for the BBC, featured in a short documentary about her fight for girls’ education in her community and even won Pakistan’s National Youth Peace Prize.<\/p>\n

But in 2012, she was shot by the Taliban for standing up for what she believed in<\/span>. Amazingly, this didn’t stop Malala from her fight.<\/p>\n

Since then, Malala has gone on to start her own foundation, win a Nobel Peace Prize, author two books, start a secondary school for Syrian refugee girls, star in a full-length documentary, attend Oxford University and become an internationally recognised advocate for girls’ rights around the world.<\/p>\n

Her impressive list of achievements and can-do attitude have us convinced that if we’re going to follow anyone’s advice, it should be Malala’s!<\/p>\n

Here are 5 indispensable pieces of advice that we’re taking note of:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. “It’s not one person’s job to do this. I can’t send all girls to school, it would be nearly impossible…what is in my potential, I will do that. Everyone has to play a role in this… It’s a responsibility we all should realize we can participate in.”<\/p>\n

2. “If one man can destroy everything why can’t one girl change it?”<\/p>\n

3. “Sometimes my mother says, ‘Don’t shake hands with men. Look down, look down, don’t look at men — it’s a shame.’ And I say, ‘IF a man can look at me, why can’t I look at them?’”<\/p>\n

4. “If we want to achieve our goal, then let us empower ourselves with the weapon of knowledge, and let us shield ourselves with unity and togetherness.”<\/p>\n

5. “I think everyone makes a mistake at least once in their life. The important thing is what you learn from it.”<\/p>\n
