Although Parks and Recreation ended its run last year, Leslie Knope is still inspiring collegiettes with her independence, determination and positive spirit. Here are a few life lessons we have learned from her!

1. The value of sleep. 

2. It’s okay to not be okay.

3. The power of breakfast food.

4. To stand by your decisions.

 

5. To tell people how you feel.

6.  To be your own hero.

7. To be aware of your flaws.

8. To always be dressed appropriately.

9. To inspire yourself.

11. To have your priorities sorted out.

12. To be ready for anything.

13. The importance of being organized.

14. To look at the positive side of everything.

15. To face life’s challenges head on.

Thanks for everything, Leslie!
