Perhaps you remember that great little gem, "30 Rock?" Tina Fey, Tracy Jordan, Alec Baldwin? Ring any bells? Well if you clicked on this article, you're most likely already a fan of this sorely missed show. With seven seasons under its belt, this show followed the life of Liz Lemon, a head writer for TGS (The Girlie Show) which was a comedy sketch show for NBC. Although both the show and Liz had some struggles, both always managed to make it back on top. 30 Rock was loved by the critics and in 2009 was even nominated for 22 Primetime Emmy Awards! Unfortunately, while it was critically acclaimed and won many awards, the show always seemed to struggle with ratings. Which is crazy! This show is brilliant in so many different ways! But perhaps the show's greatest achievement was the character Liz Lemon. This woman is an inspiration to all, and I can only hope to be her one day. As a remembrance of this fantastic show, here are 25 life lessons that Liz Lemon can provide.
1. Talking about things with someone can help
2. Learn to be creative (or crazy), because it might pay off one day
3. Learn to know when you're in danger
4. Learn to master the eye roll so people can know how much you truly don't care
5. Find a hobby that fulfills you
6. Love your body
7. Get in touch with yourself and know who you are, because it will make life easier
8. Have high standards when it comes to dating; don't sell yourself short
9. People always appreciate great life advice
10. Know how to properly deal with your stress
11. It's good to know where your priorities are in life
12. Assert yourself, otherwise people might get lazy and forget their job
13. Stand up for yourself and don't let others bully you
14. Say "Yes" to opportunities more often
15. Stop spending so much and start saving more, maybe make a budget or open a savings account
16. Learn how to be more empathetic and loving for when people need you
17. Be more efficient
18. Really value yourself (like really value yourself)
19. Get a pet because they can be so entertaining

23. It's good to have high morals
24. Don't get angered quickly or say something you might regret
25. Self-confidence is key; it's all about finding what you lie about yourself
Well this article has come to a close and I know what you're thinking-
But if you're already starting to miss Liz (and maybe the rest of the 30 Rock gang) and her valuable life lessons then you can do what I'm about to. Curl up on the couch with my night cheese and some pizza (and maybe a sandwich just in case) and binge watch 30 Rock because all seven seasons are on Netflix just waiting to be appreciated and enjoyed.
