Remember the time when you first started using Pinterest? Or, what were you looking for on this somewhat addictive platform?
My guess is you were either planning a home renovation, searching for yummy recipes, dreaming about your future wedding, looking for fun DIY crafts or #mondaymotivation. Btw, if you remember, let me know in the comments below!
Well, I started using my favorite-ever platform way back in 2010, and it was mostly to find tattoo ideas and motivational boss lady quotes (not that I was an actual boss lady back then, but it matters how you see yourself, right? :D). Because we all know that a positive mindset can do miracles in life. Especially on Monday morning 😉
10+ years later? Well, not much has changed! While I don’t need motivational quotes to wake up and go to university class while my hangover from Saturday night is still er – hanging around, there’s no such thing as “too many motivational quotes” in a business owner’s life.
So, I wanted to share with you some of my favorite powerful boss babe quotes. Hopefully, they will inspire you to start your business, encourage you to develop an entrepreneur mindset, help you find the motivation to keep working towards your goals (even on those gloomy days) or remind you it’s time for some self-care.

MY FAVORITE BOSS LADY QUOTES FROM JEN SINCERO’S BOOK “YOU’RE A BADASS”
I’m not a huge fan of self-help or “get rich” books – mainly because I find 90% of them to be sleazy and full of fluff. But every now and then, I find a true gem. And this no-bullshit lady boss definitely speaks my language!
“Getting clear about what your unique purpose is can be the difference between living a happy, fulfilled life of abundance, choice, and expansiveness or living in the restrictive veal pen of your own indecision and tired old excuses.”
“The moment you have the audacity to start believing in the not-yet seen, your reality will begin to shift.”
“Procrastination is one of the most popular forms of self-sabotage because it’s really easy.”
“When we’re forced to do something, suddenly the time is there. Which means it’s there all the time, but we’ve just chosen to limit ourselves by believing that it isn’t.”
“Don’t let anyone mess with you and your dreams, least of all yourself.”
“When you make a no-nonsense decision, you sign up fully and keep moving toward your goal, regardless of what’s flung in your path. And stuff will definitely get flung, which is why making the decision is so crucial – this shit is not for sissies. The moment it gets hard or expensive or puts you at risk of looking like a moron, if you haven’t made the decision, you’ll quit.
“Demand of yourself that you become who you need to become to create the life you desire.”
“When the unexpected money or the new job or the big client comes in is up to The Universe. It can literally happen immediately or it can take years. Your job is to do everything you can to manifest it and have unshakable faith that the Universe is moving it toward you in perfect timing.”
“It’s the willingness to keep pushing through new challenges, not shrink from them back into your comfort zone, that separates the successful from the unsuccessful.”
“Whatever you desire to do with your precious life—write jokes or rock out or start a business or learn to speak Greek or quit your job or raise a bunch of kids or fall in love or lose your flab or open orphanages around the world or direct movies or save dolphins or make millions or live in a canyon in a loincloth—believe that it’s possible. And that it’s available to you.”
