Sadly, I just recently finished all nine seasons of "The Office." It was so bittersweet ending my favorite show ever. "The Office" incorporates everything you could possibly want from a show, from hilarious characters to episodes that can make you laugh and cry. Now that I have finished the show, I have realized that even though it is meant to be a comedy, each of the characters that you learned to love can teach you valuable life lessons.
Michael Scott
It’s important to have fun in life and joke around. Even as the boss, he is the biggest goofball in the office. While it’s important to get your work done, you don’t have to take yourself so seriously all the time!
Jim Halpert
Ugh. My favorite character ever. He makes us remember that love always comes first and to always prioritize what’s important in life – your loved ones.
Pam Beesly
If you aren’t satisfied with something in your life, you have the power to change that. Stand up for yourself and do what is best for you.
Dwight Schrute
It’s OK to be weird, so don’t care so much about the opinions of others.
Angela Martin
Don't let your pride consume you. You are never alone. Turn to people you can always rely on because asking for help is not a sign of weakness.
Erin Hannon
This one's simple – don't worry, be happy.
Kevin Malone
Enjoy the simple things that life has to offer.
Stanley Hudson
Life is short, so take risks and enjoy your time.
Kelly Kapoor
It’s important to say what you’re thinking or how you feel; don’t keep quiet about something that has been on your mind.
Toby Flenderson
Poor Toby. Michael hates him for pretty much no reason. However, Toby teaches us that not everyone in life will like you, but it's OK because your purpose is not to please people.
Darryl Philbin
Remember to make time for yourself. Treating yourself to some relaxation is always nice every now and then; you deserve it.
Andy Bernard
Appreciate every moment in life, because you will eventually find that time flies.
