#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER •

From the People’s Choice Award winner for Favorite YouTube Star and host of NBC’s A Little Late with Lilly Singh comes the definitive guide to being a bawse: a person who exudes confidence, hustles relentlessly, and smiles genuinely because he or she has fought through it all and made it out the other side.

Lilly Singh isn’t just a superstar. She’s Superwoman—which is also the name of her wildly popular YouTube channel. Funny, smart, and insightful, the actress and comedian covers topics ranging from relationships to career choices to everyday annoyances. It’s no wonder she’s garnered more than a billion views. But Lilly didn’t get to the top by being lucky—she had to work for it. Hard.

Now Lilly wants to share the lessons she learned while taking the world by storm, and the tools she used to do it. How to Be a Bawse is the definitive guide to conquering life. Make no mistake, there are no shortcuts to success, personal or professional. World domination requires real effort, dedication, and determination. Just consider Lilly a personal trainer for your life—with fifty rules to get you in the game, including

• Let Go of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out): Temptation will try to steer you away from your goals. FOMO is just a test of your priorities, a test that a bawse is ready to pass.
• Be Nice to People: Treat niceness like an item on your daily to-do list. People will go out of their way to help and support you because you make them feel good.
• Schedule Inspiration: Lack of motivation isn’t permanent or a sign of weakness. Expect it and proactively schedule time to be creative.
• Be the Dumbest: Challenge yourself by surrounding yourself with people who know more than you do. It’s a vital way to learn and improve.

Told in Lilly’s hilarious, bold voice and packed with photos and candid stories from her journey to the top, How to Be a Bawse will make you love your life and yourself—even more than you love Beyoncé. (Yes, we said it!)

WARNING: This book does not include hopeful thoughts, lucky charms, or cute quotes. That’s because success, happiness, and everything else you want in life need to be worked for, not wished for. In Lilly’s world, there are no escalators, only stairs. Get ready to climb.

“Lilly is a bona fide #girlboss, boss, and bawse. Her meteoric rise has come with so many incredible lessons that we are all lucky to have access to. This book is a must-have for the hustler in all of us.”—Sophia Amoruso, founder and CEO, Girlboss

A millennial gave me advice?

I liked this audiobook and will likely listen to it again. Lilly combines pearls of wisdom from her personal perspective with energy and heart.

For the first few chapters I thought the advice was pretty naive. Someone who is young with no commitments is in a different place in life and of COURSE has the energy to work 16 hour days to make life dreams come true. But there is more to the story so give it a chance.

You won't find "top 10 tips for instant success" in this book. You may be inspired, you may simply be entertained. You may consider this more of a biography of a successful person. And that's ok too.

Motivational and Hilarious

Good Listen. Uplifting and inspiring. Superwoman has done it again! Thank you for sharing your story.

Share this book with a kid in your life

I let my brother borrow my physical copy of How To Be a Bawse. Giving him this book is my way to combat the sexist, racist, facist garbage he's exposed to at school and through media every day. I want him to be influenced by this brilliant woman of color, who teaches the importance of hard work, kindness, positivity, and how to succeed in life - all while being a good human being.
Lilly's message is powerful and uplifting. Get yourself a copy of @iisuperwomanii #bawsebook, and when your done, give it to a kid in your life.

An inspiring book

The content is inspiring and funny at the same time! Thank you so much Lilly! :D

things we might of heard but never really applied

I am in love with this book. It has helped me keep my mind straight I continue to focus on things that are important. One of my favorite things that she said "devote your time to what has earned it, rather than waste it with things that haven't." (not word for word but you get the jist). Again, I love this book. I hope you do too.
