8 Life Lessons From A Leo

Leos—the most feisty, fantastic people you'll ever meet. Even on their worst days, they exude confidence and radiate their signature color-- gold. My Leo roots have helped me maintain my confidence and believe in myself. Being ruled by the sun has its perks! Here are some life hacks from a Lioness:

1. On your worst day, be your most confident.

Leos take insecurity and toss it to the side. We know that we're awesome, so when we doubt ourselves, we remind everyone how leo-tastic we are.

2. Everyone who is mean to you is definitely a hater.

I mean, obviously, right? Who can hate you? You're fabulous in your own special, unique way. They're jealous and insecure; they can't handle your amazingness. That's all.

3. A bold lipstick can do wonders.

A leather jacket (faux of course), fierce winged liner, a bright pink lipstick- any statement piece will make you stand out and be super confident. And, you can rock it.

4. Don't let anybody take your shine from you.

Refer to No. 2. Haters do not deserve your attention. When somebody tries to steal your shine, shine brighter. Show them that you're ruled by the Sun itself.

5. People will underestimate you and that's okay.

Just prove them wrong. People thought I was dumb, I went to college 2 years early. People thought I was ugly, I became a model. You have to take people's negativity about you, laugh at it, and turn it into something that pushes you further.

6. Having confidence isn't a bad thing.

When my family teases me by calling me egocentric or coincided, I say, "Well, somebody's gotta like me!" It's in good fun, but the statement holds so much truth. Finding my confidence has helped me in so many life-changing ways it's insane. I make sure to compliment myself when I get ready, and I stick up for myself when the haters start trouble. I know my worth!

7. Everything looks better in cursive.

If you want to add some flair to your handwritten notes, duh, write in cursive. Show off your natural Leo classiness and curl those letters into a piece of art.

8. Use your confidence to help others.

I've been trying to teach my family and friends to be more confident. I see their inner and outer beauty, and I want them to see it too.

Even though Leos can seem like little jerks, we're really house cats with the personality of lions. We mean the best and are the most loyal friends you could have. Thank a Leo today!

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.
