Tips to become a Boss Lady
1. She stays away from social media. It can be so easy to roll over in the morning, turn off your alarm and immediately open up Facebook - but don’t. Opening up social media apps will only take your focus away from what’s really important and leave you distracted by thinking about what’s going on in other people’s lives, instead of honing in on your own. Just skip it. 2. She keeps herself hydrated. All boss girls know how important it is to get hydrated first thing in the morning. Keep a glass or bottle of water beside your bed and chug it right after that alarm goes off before you do anything else. Harvard Medical School instructs: “drinking fluids is crucial to staying healthy and maintaining the function of every system in your body, including your heart, brain, and muscles.” You can’t be your best self without it. 3. She plans her day. Every boss girl knows that you must always have a plan. Running throughout your day flying by the seat of your pants is no way to do your job or run a business. Start each day with intention and bullet point what you know you need to accomplish. Having it written out makes it tangible and there is something so gratifying about crossing tasks off as you finish them. 4. She gives herself a pep talk. The only person you need to believe in what you’re doing is you, so starting your day with a quick pep talk will help you start your day knowing exactly why you’re putting your efforts where you are. No pom-poms needed. 5. She stays informed. Boss girls stay off social media first thing in the morning, but they most certainly stay up to date with what’s happening in the world. If you don’t have time, do a quick skim about what’s happening in your industry and nationally, but make sure that you’re informed and never miss a beat. 6. She does something to make her happy. Whether it’s something as simple as trying a new drink from Starbucks, meditating or even buying a pair of killer shoes you’ve been lusting over online - get up and do something . Anything that makes you smile so that your day starts with putting positive energy out into the world. Putting happiness out means that you will attract it back to you. 7. She doesn’t skip breakfast. It’s the most important meal of the day and every boss girl knows the importance of nutrition in having energy to conquer the world. So get up, and get something into your stomach that will fuel you throughout your busy day. 8. She gets dressed in a killer outfit...that she picked out the night before. The phrase “dress for the job you want” couldn’t be more true. There is nothing like the confidence that you exude when you’re wearing a dazzling outfit. On the flip side, waking up in the morning and having no idea what you’re going to wear and scrambling at the last minute can throw your entire day off. Do yourself a favor and have your outfit planned the night before - it will make your whole morning flow more seamlessly.
