Leslie Knope is an intelligent, witty, self-motivated, and extremly organized perfect human being. Who wouldn’t want to be Leslie Knope? She serves as the perfect role model for young passionate women. Most of us Parks and Rec fans are aware of the saying, “be the Leslie Knope of whatever you do.” But sometimes it’s challenging to have the same enthusiasm, energy, and focus Leslie has. Although we can’t be exactly like Leslie, we should definitely consider some of her life advice!

1. Smile through the hard times.

2.  The importance of priorities.

3. We don’t really need math.

 

4. Salad is not considered food.

5. Alcohol is the solution to stress.

6. Compliment your BFF generously.

 

7. When in trouble, reassure yourself that things will be okay.

8. Take risks in life and put yourself out there!

9.  Always see things in a positive perspective.

10. Breakfast is the only acceptable food.

11. Take upon new challenges and exciting opportunities!

Fashion, writing, and dogs are my passions. I'm a Communications major, hoping to work for fashion PR someday. Oh, and I'm totally in love with Zac Efron!
