13 Celebrity Tips On How To Be A Total Girl Boss

Who run the world?

There is nothing we strive for more in life that being total #girlboss(es). But sometimes it feels too hard, we're tired and we need help dammit.

So be gifted with these celeb tips on how to be top dog from some total queens...

1. Beyonce on…continually setting goals

“I can never be safe; I always try and go against the grain. As soon as I accomplish one thing, I just set a higher goal. That’s how I’ve gotten to where I am.”

2. Lena Dunham on...accepting compliments

“Girls are trained to say, ‘I wrote this, but it’s probably really stupid.’ Well, no, you wouldn’t write a novel if you thought it was really stupid. Men are much more comfortable going, ‘I wrote this book because I have a unique perspective that the world needs to hear.’ Girls are taught from the age of seven that if you get a compliment, you don’t go, ‘Thank you’, you go, ‘No, you’re insane.”

3. Oprah on…thinking like a queen

"Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another stepping stone to greatness."

4. Michelle Obama on…good relationships

“Do not bring people in your life who weigh you down. And trust your instincts … good relationships feel good. They feel right. They don’t hurt. They’re not painful. That’s not just with somebody you want to marry, but it’s with the friends that you choose. It’s with the people you surround yourselves with.”

5. Demi Lovato on…making yourself happy

"I have come to realize making yourself happy is most important. Never be ashamed of how you feel. You have the right to feel any emotion you want, and do what makes you happy. That’s my life motto."

6. Taylor Swift on…knowing when to give up

"Giving up doesn’t always mean you’re weak. Sometimes you’re just strong enough to let go."

7. Angelina Jolie on…knowing who you are

"Figure out who are you separate from your family, and the man or woman you’re in a relationship with. Find who you are in this world and what you need to feel good alone. I think that’s the most important thing in life. Find a sense of self. With that, you can do anything else."

8. Lady Gaga on….the importance of a career

"Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you’re wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn’t love you anymore."

9. Lauren Conrad on…being a bitch

"Over the last few years I’ve been able to work with several women who I really respected because they didn’t take on that role of being a bitch. They were strong, but they were kind and didn’t need to shout to be heard. A lot of women feel they need to be tough to be taken seriously. We have this idea that kindness is weakness, which I don’t think is true."

10. Amy Schumer on…self encouragment

“Even on my worst day, when I’m feeling awful, I smile and say ‘you’re doing the best you can. Good job bitch!’”

11. Zoe Sugg on…saying yes

"Just say 'yes', just say 'there’s nothing holding me back'."

12. Jennifer Lawrence on…acting like a man

“When the Sony hack happened and I found out how much less I was being paid than the lucky people with dicks, I didn't get mad at Sony. I got mad at myself. I failed as a negotiator because I gave up early.

If I'm honest with myself, I would be lying if I didn't say there was an element of wanting to be liked that influenced my decision to close the deal without a real fight. I didn't want to seem "difficult" or "spoiled." At the time, that seemed like a fine idea, until I saw the payroll on the Internet and realized every man I was working with definitely didn't worry about being "difficult" or "spoiled."

13. Selena Gomez on…asking questions

"I used to be afraid to ask questions because I thought ‘oh maybe I’m not smart and I maybe I don’t know what I’m talking about', but now I’m not afraid to ask questions. I want to know what’s happening and why it’s happening. But it is nice to become a boss. It’s actually really empowering."
