Actress Kristen Stewart shares her manifesto for today's modern woman (and has a cathartic rant while she's at it).
A Sense of Purpose is Vital
"Female ambition is different to men's. Men have a drive to make their mark on the world so people remember them. Women are more fulfilled with the selfless drive to create things, but one of the main struggles is finding out what you're good at and going for it. If you don't have a sense of purpose, you'll just sit down and die!"
Feel the Fear
"You've got to get comfortable with fear, nothing's worth doing unless you're a little bit scared. People call women the weaker sex - it's crazy. You have to stand up to that and be ready for things to be hard and for things to be serious."
Be Tactful
"It's a total cliche - a man in a powerful position is considered assertive, whereas a woman is a bitch. So unfortunately we do need to consider how things are coming across - because people will stop listening to women much more quickly than they will a man."
Have a Mantra
"My mantras 'everyone, calm the f*** down!' When things get crazy - and I have been through it - I often repeat those words."
