you've probably been living under a rock if you haven't heard of Spongebob
Squarepants the lovable sponge who's been gracing our TV screens for over two
decades truly Sponge Bob Squarepants is a staple in the majority of people's
childhoods and that comes as no surprise the show is jam-packed with wholesome
content not only did we laugh while watching Spongebob and his friends
create shenanigans but we also knowingly or unknowingly learned some valuable
lessons along the way I'm Kyle with wicked binge and these are ten life
lessons that spongebob squarepants taught us never give up yeah I know it's
a cliche but we simply had to start with this one if anyone was ever resilient
and determined to succeed it was spongebob I mean honestly have
you ever seen spongebob give up on anything heck he even ended up selling
all those chocolate bars to that crazy guy
chocolate chocolate and have you seen how many times he's failed his boating
exam according to him he failed only 39 times yeah
39 times even when mrs. puff urged him to just quit and make her in his life
easier he continued to try and well fail over
and over but it doesn't matter failing is a part of life and it's
necessary life wouldn't be fun if you just won all the time because often
times it's difficult to appreciate something when it comes to you so easy
failing can greatly impact your determination and can help you strive
for your goal more the more you fail at something the more you want to prove to
yourself and those around you that you are capable of achieving such a goal
being determined and patients are highly important traits successful people have
so try and try again and you'll be destined to achieve your goal you know
eventually even if you continuously fail just remember that success is lingering
just around the corner it's important to know that failure doesn't make you weak
it just makes you human or sponge and suddenly that task that you've been
dreading seems way more doable now so get out there and sell those chocolate
bars don't be afraid to show your feelings we all know that spongebob has
a habit of being overly sensitive but that's okay
it's fine being sensitive it's completely natural
if you're happy shout it to the world if you want to cry go ahead and let the
waterfall flow spongebob according to you Squidward once cried 43
times before 2 p.m. sure it might be a bit dramatic but
what's wrong with being a bit dramatic
the point is don't be afraid to show your feelings even the ones that you
might not be the most proud of it helps us cope with things and enables
those around us to understand us better it's always better to deal with your
feelings upfront rather than to hide them away if spongebob hid his feelings
he'd explode under pressure and same goes for many of us believe in your
dreams it's always important to believe in both yourself and what you strive to
achieve all the residents of Bikini Bottom have truly embraced who they are
as individuals and aren't afraid of pursuing their own dreams want to be an
artist Squidward despite being criticized for his rather egocentric
paintings still finds the will to paint and develop his sketching skills this is
the at all want to become a superhero
mermaidman and barnacleboy have done it and they're still doing it even though
both of them are in their 80s want to establish a successful business just
look at mr. Krabs he's taken his entrepreneurial goals to an immoral
level but darn it those are his dreams want to excel in your studies and
dedicate your life to science take a look at sandy and her inventions enjoy
just lounging around in doing nothing well Congrats you're a Patrick and
that's okay sleeping and watching the coconut show is hard work the point is
believing in yourself will automatically make your dreams more achievable and
when you finally achieve your goals you'd feel like you're on top of the
world one has to believe in him or herself and once you gather up that
courage you become unstoppable your confidence and self failure will
instantly increase be constantly ready like spongebob being yourself is the way
to go if you're not being yourself who are you life is too short to care about
what other people think just look at spongebob for example he's a walking
bundle of joy who is dressed in a square suit isn't particularly Manley has
crooked teeth and is pretty universally naive but do you think that those
details affect his life negatively in any way let's face it
spongebob is a perfect target for bullies such as Squidward despite often
being made fun of for his childlike tendencies and his silly appearance
spongebob doesn't let mean words affect him negatively hi spongebob
I'm gonna kick your butt in fact he sees good in anyone and even tries to make
peace with his bullies he's completely comfortable with himself
and instead of choosing to cover up his flaws he embraces them as part of his
personality and if some people dislike them it's their loss our advice is to be
just like that be yourself and when you pair that with being non-judgmental and
nice to those around you it annoys mean people to the point that they'll leave
you alone entirely then you love time and space
for people who actually value you no matter how weird you might be life is
good crabs in all truth spongebob wouldn't have met his friends
if he wasn't so weird so the next time you're thinking about covering your
flaws consider embracing your quirks after all you attract what you portray
if you're naturally weird you'll probably attract some pretty
weird but cool and interesting people be kind towards others sometimes we're
spongebob sometimes we're Squidward sometimes
we're jam-packed with happiness and want to share our joy with the world and
other times we just like to play the clarinet and talk trash it's all natural
and we've all been there but the thing is negativity greatly affects your life
just look at Squidward he's as grumpy as he can possibly get
and for what there's absolutely no other reason but the failure to view the world
through a more positive light in the absence of kindness spongebob doesn't
have time or a place in his heart for hatred and neither should you being
confident and kind to others truly does more for you than for anyone else it
helps you stay grounded aware of your value and genuinely happy with yourself
it's just a lot easier being kind I mean have you looked at the way that
spongebob is living not a bad thought insight only good thoughts and fun times
have you seen the way that Squidward's life is yeah full of grumpiness stress
and insecurities and terrible terrible clarinet playing
love what you do we all know that spongebob works at the Krusty Krab and
some people even look down at his career as a fry cook but does that limit
SpongeBob's goals and his love for his work not in the slightest
no matter what you choose to do whether that be flipping burgers or running your
own company take pride in your work if you truly enjoy something enjoy it
while you can almost everything in life is temporary
especially in our youth have an offer for a job position you adore but those
around you don't approve who cares what they think
do what makes you happy because the offer won't be there forever life is
about fun above anything else spongebob taught us to always have fun in every
episode spongebob finds something positive and
entertaining in everything that he does whether that be his exhausting job or is
tough boating school studies what's also important is to take a break every once
in a while life can be exhausting and when it is the best thing to do is just
chill until you get your energy back just look at Patrick yes we know he
particularly does nothing else than lounge around but that's not the point
here his hedonistic view of life in the way
he values his happiness over anything else is truly something we should all
adopt a bit of no we shouldn't lounge around all day and eat like Patrick but
we should definitely be able to recognize when we need to take a break
and should happily indulge in the finer things in life the one thing that never
goes out of style is having fun and being careless when you can
spongebob never fails to embrace his playful side and neither should you
in short seek out the good in life and have fun while you can as spongebob said
turn everything you do into an enjoyable activity full of fu n
you know tea leaves I take advantage of learning opportunities while we were at
school we day dreamed about working while at work we long for our old school
days cruel irony but here's the good news but we can break that cycle
spongebob was always grateful for the things that he had even if it was a hard
homework assignment due on the very next day I am about to write the greatest
essay of all time yes there were times where spongebob slacked off and didn't
learn what he was supposed to but that's completely understandable but he never
failed to take an opportunity to learn something new and not only did he learn
but he shared his experience with others one other time in your life will you
have a job where your only responsibility is to learn new things
there is something incredibly fulfilling and learning something new so cherish it
also by taking any opportunity to learn something new
we don't just mean academic type of learning learning from life experiences
is far more important as we mature we learn from what we see and do whether
that be good or bad experiences don't be afraid to take risks not just because
you'll possibly get something traditionally valuable out of it but
also because you'll get life experiences from your successes and your failures
you'll get experience with every bad situation you'll find yourself in
whether that be flunking a test or feuding with a friend your past failures
make you more wary of the world around you and prepares you for what comes next
after all life gets harder and harder as we age so you better prepare turn your
jealousy into support we all know that jealousy is bad for us yet we succumb to
it on a daily basis spongebob seems to not have a hint of jealousy in him but
that can't be said for mr. Krabs and plankton over the course of the show we
see that their feud is fueled almost entirely by jealousy but it wasn't
always that way their relationship is entirely broken and they go from
childhood best friends to full-on blood enemies the same thing can be said about
Squidward and Squidward Squidward or simply ignoring his various attempts
to make him feel jealous Squidward often goes into a jealous rage upon hearing
about his accomplishments
spongebob however taught us that everyone is more likely to be a happier
person if they perceive other people as their companions rather than their
competition the habit of being jealous and envious of others only worsens our
self-esteem and if our self-worth is already shaky and we have no intention
of dropping those toxic behaviors it becomes a vicious cycle in which we only
hurt ourselves there is nothing to gain from jealousy and like spongebob we
should seek other vessels to put our energy into you rather than wasting it
on obsessing over someone else's life
being supportive and genuinely happy about other success propels us forward
to accomplish our own goals own up to your mistakes spongebob isn't perfect
and neither are we people make mistakes remember when
SpongeBob and Patrick accidentally splattered white paint on mr. Krabs
first dollar the two totally freaked out and that's perfectly natural
remember when spongebob completely messed up his order at the Krusty Krab
the whole restaurant was a mess then you know what it doesn't matter at least in
the long run our mistakes seem enormous the first time we make them but over
time trust us they shrink and amount to nothing own up to your actions and
apologize if they take your apology great if they don't pay it's not the end
of the world after all whatever you did it's not gonna matter in five years or
even five days depending on the severity owning up to your actions is the moral
thing to do and if the apology gets rejected at least you have a clean
conscience we're all human and what's important is that you learn from your
mistakes
