A boss babe is a woman who is empowered, who understands the hustle and a woman who is all about being successful. Everyone should strive to be a boss babe, not because we have to but because we can. 

A boss babe has to be productive, organized and in control. Here’s how you can start taking the fist few steps on your journey to becoming a boss babe:

1. Wake Up Early

This isn’t because of traditional reasons which say that a girl should wake up early and prepare the family for the day. Ugh, push that mindset away. 

Waking up early is important as it will give you more time in a day to do more stuff. When you wake up early, you have more time for planning, strategic thinking, and getting organized for the day. 

How about you experiment waking up just 45 or 30 minutes before work and waking up 1 and a half hours before work? You will notice that while you get more rest for the first option, your morning will be less organized and more rushed. 

2. To-Do-Lists Are You BFF

Every night before you go to bed, get a notepad out and start planning out your activities for the next day. 

Instead of just making a to do list, try scheduling your tasks. Start with the big tasks and then slip in some of your mini tasks in between them.

Planning will help you set up your day with success and also make sure you don’t miss out on anything important or any deadlines. A boss babe always hands in tasks before the deadline!

3. Plan Out Your Finances

A boss babe is not a boss babe if she’s always broke. So, make a budget, keep track of where your money goes, and save! Doing this will help you understand how to properly manage your finances based on your spending.

Budgeting is your first step towards financial freedom. Start off the 50/30/20 rule, after a few months, you will better understand your spending habits and can start making changes to your budget to better suit your lifestyle. 

4. Self-Care is a Priority

Sometimes we get too involved in the whole hustle culture, that we forget to take care of ourselves. Being a boss babe might be about understanding the hustle but, when you understand the hustle, you understand that you need to take care of yourself too. 

If you’re not at a 100% then your hustle will not be at a 100%. So, make sure you take some time to recharge. 

Treat yourself with a nice spa day or spend the day out by yourself, eating good food or doing whatever makes you happy.  

5. Learn How to Say No

Saying no to something means choosing yourself and making yourself the number 1 priority in your life. It means that you’re saying yes to yourself. 

Don’t care about what others have to say, realize that you are valuable and choose your own opinion about yourself. If you don’t feel like doing something, if you don’t feel like seeing someone then just say no. 

6. Never Stop Learning

A boss babe understands the true power of knowledge and never stops trying to learn something new every day.
