Netflix's Most Inspirational Characters

You're pretty much guaranteed to fall in love with them

Netflix's Most Inspirational Characters
Digital Trends

There's no doubt about the fact that we all love Netflix. If you think about it, it's actually pretty crazy how much time we dedicate to it. We find these shows that grab our attention and instantly become obsessed with them. What makes it even better, for me at least, is finding certain characters in these binge-worthy shows and basically looking at them as role models.

1. One Tree Hill: Brooke Davis

Confidence, sassiness, humorous, selflessness and stubbornness all wrapped in one. Not to mention she's drop dead gorgeous. It was amazing to see her grow more and more mature as a character as the show went on. She started out as the typical hot party girl in high school to a very successful woman with a stable job, husband and kids. Who wouldn't aspire to have those things in life? It's safe to say she's definitely my favorite character. I could go on and on about her. I still believe Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, after all.

2. Friday Night Lights: Coach Eric Taylor

Two words: husband goals. He is a loving father and husband and an extremely devoted high school football coach. He didn't let anything stand in the way of him and that is what I admired most. Especially when it came to his team; the Dillon Panthers. If anyone treated them badly, you better bet he stood up for them. You would think all of his players were his own children.

3. Breaking Bad: Jesse Pinkman

Oh, Jesse. Where do I begin? He comes off as this big jerk, when in reality, he deep down probably has one of the biggest hearts I've ever seen. When he cares for someone, he REALLY cares. Yes, he's done his bad deeds in the past; but at the end of the day, I can still recognize that he's aiming towards being a morally good person. As the show went on, all his character did was improve for the better.

4. Gossip Girl: Blair Waldorf

The ultimate Queen B (sorry Beyoncé). Very similar to Brooke Davis, Blair was full of confidence and knew not to take any kind of shit from anyone. She was also a strong believer in true love and never gave up on it. The perseverance she had was extremely aspiring and every girl should aspire to be like her (even if she can have a bit of an attitude, she makes it work).

5. Lost: Jack Shephard

The courage this man has is fascinating. First off, can you imagine getting in a plane crash and being stranded on an island with a bunch of strangers? And then having it in you to take one for the team and try to lead everyone in the right direction? I don't know how he did it, but he sure did do it well.

If you haven't seen any of these shows, I'm telling you now; watch them. You will not regret it, I promise. Inspiring characters such as these five make watching them that much better than they already are.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning. No matter how functionally dysfunctional your friend group may be, if you're anything like me, you feel absolutely blessed to have found such a wonderful group of humans to call "your people." Here is what your friend group might look like if they were Disney princesses (and that wasn't just a thing you all pretended in your heads):

1. The wait for Buffalo Wild Wings is always going to be long on Thursday nights.
