For those of you that haven’t been fortunate enough to binge watch "Gossip Girl," picture beautiful, rich people in the Upper East Side, constantly getting caught in scandal after scandal. Blair Waldorf was typically portrayed as the mean girl, the one people both feared and loved, but those of us that are hooked on the show know that she was so much more than that. She knew what she wanted and was determined to get her way. We could all use a little bit of this mentality, so here are six of Blair’s best quotes to take into consideration.
people you need around. You are nobody’s “sometimes,” so make space for the people that deserve to be a part of your life for a long time and eliminate the toxic, temporary relationships.
It’s too easy to get into the mentality of “whatever happens, happens.” Don’t wait for opportunities to come to you: Get out there, and make them happen. Once you get what you want, you’ll realize how good it felt to work for it.
This pretty much speaks for itself. Don’t let anything get
in your way, and don’t feel overwhelmed by obstacles because how else are you
going to get what you want?
your life in order to be happy and successful. Finding happiness and peace within yourself is the most satisfactory feeling in the world, one that no guy could ever provide.
Sometimes, you need to look at your issues from a different perspective. Will the thing you're stressing over be important in a year? How about five? If the answer is no, you're wasting your energy. Take a deep breath and keep moving.
This is quite possibly the best advice that Blair has ever given. Sometimes, you’ve done all you can do, and you need to know when it’s time to take a break. If things haven’t worked out yet, just relax and know that you can try again tomorrow.
Blair knew how to get through every rough patch with grace and class; hopefully, some of her advice can motivate you to do the same!
