Brooke Davis. Cheerleader. Fashion Designer. Role Model. She may have been known as the "party girl" in high school, but eventually she turned her life around and became a very successful business woman. Throughout all 9 seasons of One Tree Hill, Brooke Davis gave us many lessons to be learned and so much more.
1. Stand up for what's right
Even if you don't think other people will agree with you, that's okay. The right thing may not be the most popular and the most popular thing may not be the right thing.
2. Live your life to the fullest
You're only young once. Try out for theater, go study abroad, or go volunteer for a local organization. You'll regret the chances you didn't take.
3. People are capable of change
From Season 1 of One Tree Hill up until Season 9, we definitely saw Brooke Davis change for the better. Everyone is capable of some sort of change. You just have to believe in them and support them in everything they set their minds to.
4. Our society is full of double standards
Double standards face every single person daily. Brooke Davis was definitely one to shut down double standards and tell everyone that they were okay.
5. Don't let others define who you are
"People are going to label you. It's how you overcome those labels, that's what matters."
6. Just because one guy hurts you, doesn't mean the next one will
Not every guy you meet is a bad guy. Although it's going to take some trust and patience, there is a right guy out there for each of you.
7. Everyone is insecure about something
Brooke Davis wasn't perfect in every episode. She faced many struggles through high school and even when she was running Clothes Over Bros. Everyone's insecurities can be triggered by someone saying just one simple thing.
8. Sometimes you just have to dance it out
Someone may walk in and see you. But there's that possibility that the person who just walked in will become your future husband one day.
9. Think of others before yourself
This one took Brook Davis a few seasons to learn. However, she eventually started putting her friends and family first. Although you may be going through some hard situations, there are other people who are going through harder situations.
10. Be fearless in everything you do
People are going to hold you back and situations will arise that aren't part of your plan. I mean Brooke Davis is a victim of assault. She sets her goals and tries her hardest to achieve them, without letting anything get in her way.
