HOW TO BE A #GIRLBOSS!

Since I decided to start reading again the first book on my list was GIRLBOSS. I already owned it and even read some chapters one year ago but somehow I just forgot about it. As I gave this book a second try some weeks ago it just blew my mind. I started reading it from the very beginning and with every page and every chapter I got more and more obsessed. This book is not only a perfect guide for every girl who has big dreams, also Sophia wrote her words with so much passion, enegery and honesty that it almost felt like a friend is writing a letter to you. I personally can relate to almost everything she writes and also the quotes she chose are awesome. Everytime I finished another chapter I felt more positive about working hard, dreaming big and never giving up.

For all of you who don't know who Sophia Amoruso is, she is the founder and CEO of Nasty Gal. It's an online fashion store that sells vintage clothes as well as selected designer brands. Sophia started this business without even having the attention to do it as big as it turned out today. She was a young girl without any knowledge in running a business who had some problems with finding the right job and therefore she started selling vintage clothes on eBay. With the years the eBay shop grew bigger and bigger until it became what it is today. A company with an annual turnover about 1 Million $.

Of couse this is just the short version of her success story and she does not brag with this at all. The main intention of the book is actually to empower girls (as well as boys) to work hard for their dreams, to never give up and simply to get shit done. As she writes, "I have three pieces of advice I want you to remember: Don’t ever grow up. Don’t become a bore. Don’t let The Man get to you. OK? Cool. Then let’s do this.”
