You’re an incredibly strong, intelligent, badass woman—but you’re still human. While it is tempting to think having all these qualities makes you bullet proof 24/7, that’s extremely silly. It just means you know how to do these 5 things:

1. Bounce back from crappy situations.

Life sucks sometimes, but what stands between the weak and the strong is how you deal with it. You’re definitely pretty badass if you can accept that shit happens, learn from it, and move on knowing that bigger and better things lie ahead.

2. Accept rejection.

You know not everyone will want to be with you or hire you. Whatever the case may be. You’re OK with that. You know life is game and that no matter what happens, you will end up where you’re meant to be.

3. Take action instead of just talking.

It is literally the worst when someone moans and groans about a situation but never does anything to change it. You wouldn’t even consider that. Ever. You mean what you say. If you set a goal, you know how reach it and you will. No matter how long it takes or amount of effort needed.

4. Get out of bad situations.

Crappy jobs, emotionally drained friendships and relationships—You don’t care what it is, if it messes with you in a negative way too long, you’re out the door fast without a second thought.

5. Accept your mistakes.

Sometimes people make mistakes or choose the wrong thing/person. It is admitting you're wrong and fixing it that make for a pretty badass women. Knowing you’re not perfect and that you in fact do not know everything (even though you think you do) is a tricky balance, but you got it down.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
