Are you working hard at a job doing great work? Or do you have professional clients who are?
Chances are if you (or your client) are a woman you are likely not getting paid your worth! And women are the least likely to ask to get paid their worth.
(BTW, guess who agrees with me on that and says so quite often…none other than Warren Buffett! Yes, the richest man in the US is passionate about urging women to stop downplaying their gifts and start asking to be paid their worth!)
So, what is the fastest way to make more money when you are gainfully employed? Well by getting a raise of course!

Hi Margaret,
I definitely agree with you that it is alright to ask for a raise. As an employer, when someone asks for a raise with the pressure of expectation, it creates discomfort within me. I suspect that your advice to let go of outcomes would change the experience on the other end and allow for negotiation. One of my biggest challenges is when an employee asks for a raise before they have proven themselves. When making that request it would be important to be able to articulate what you are adding to the business and what the employer can expect from you in the future. If the raise does not come, begin to negotiate what would need to happen for you to get this raise in the near future and allow time for the process.
