If one thing is for sure mob boss Tony Soprano does not deal with anything or anyone he doesn't like. You cross this Soprano, you get crossed off his hit list. Although the series is based on the Italian Mob and the way things work - mixing business with pleasure - there are some valuable lessons to be learned.
1. Don't take anything for granted.
Although 100 years may seem like an eternity, it's key to appreciate every moment, day by day. Enjoy the good times and think positive throughout the bad times.
2. There's always someone watching you.
Whether they're keeping tabs on you while you're rising to the top or noting every thing that you're doing wrong, there are fans and haters. Keep following your dreams and prove them wrong.
3. A wrong decision is better than an indecision.
Should I eat that slice of pizza or not eat that slice of pizza? Just do it, because you want it and you'll thank yourself while you're enjoying bite by bite.
4. Don't take s*** from anyone.
There comes a time in life when you realize that everyone is for themselves. If people don't want to worry about you, then why should you worry about dealing with them?
5. Your mistakes have consequences.
Just like karma, it will come back to bite you in the behind.
6. It's tough at the top.
In the Soprano business, nobody wants to see you shine, they want to take you down. It's key to stay strong and stay confident.
7. Family first
Through all the fighting and drama, they will always be there and have your back through the good times and bad.
8. Those who want respect, give respect.
You can't demand something if you don't give it? Am I right?
