#GIRLBOSS

I finally got a copy of Sophia Amoruso's #GIRLBOSS and I had so much fun reading it. She tells her story, gives life and business advice, and all in all gives tips on how to be a total #GIRLBOSS (which is so on point).  This book is a must read especially when you feel stuck, uninspired, or stuck and uninspired.

Here are some of my favorite quotes/wise words from the book:

"Abandon anything about your life and habits that might be holding you back. Learn to create your own opportunities. Know that there is no finish line; fortune favors action. Race balls-out toward the extraordinary life that you've always dreamed of, or still haven't had time to dream up. And prepare to have a hell of a lot of fun along the way." -Sophia Amoruso

"When you approach everything as if it's a big, fun experiment, then it's not that big of a deal if things don't work out. If the plan changes, that can be even better. There are secret opportunities hidden inside every failure, but start looking now---- they are everywhere!" -Sophia Amoruso

"You get back what you put out, so might as well think positively, focus on visualizing what you want instead of getting distracted by what you don't want, and send the universe your good intentions so that it can send them right back." -Sophia Amoruso

"In an ideal world you'd never have to do things that are below your position, but this isn't an ideal world and it's never going to be. You have to understand that even a creative job isn't just about being creative, but about doing the work that needs to get done. The #GIRLBOSS who is willing to do a job that is below her --and above-- is the one who stands out." -Sophia Amoruso

"But here's the real shit: you can't have it all, and nothing comes easy. You will make sacrifices and compromises, get let down and let other people down, fail and start over, break some hearts, take some names, and learn to pick up and continue when your own heart gets broken. But difficult doesn't mean impossible, and out of the bajillion of things in this universe that you can't control, what you can control is how hard you try, and if or when to pack it in." -Sophia Amoruso

"Never let go of your appetite to go after new ideas, new experiences, and new adventures. Compete with yourself, not with others. Judge yourself on what is your personal best and you'll accomplish more that you could ever have imagined. Life stops for no one, so keep moving. Stay awake and stay alive. There's no AutoCorrect in life ---think before texting the universe. Breaking the rules just for fun is too easy ----the real challenge lies in perfecting the art of knowing which rules to accept and which to rewrite. The more you experiment, take risks, and make mistakes, the better you'll know yourself, the better you'll know the world, and the more focused you'll be." -Sophia Amoruso 

"You combine hard work, creativity, and self-determination, and things start to happen."
