Parks and Recreation character, Ron Swanson, is arguably one of the best characters on the show. His tough demeanor and hatred for the federal government provide a good laugh whenever he opens his mouth. His thick mustache and stoic attitude give the Parks Department what it needs to stay afloat, even though Leslie Knope does 99.99 percent of the work. But, even though Ron is tough and demanding, he still provides viewers with tidbits of wisdom that we can follow, even though it may come across harsh. So here are five wonderful words of wisdom brought to you by Ron Swanson.

Ron Swanson is extremely realistic. One cannot give 110 percent intensity, that number just simply does not exist. One cannot give more than all that they have. So always give 100 percent, unless you're working for the federal government and then he would say just sit there and ignore the phone.

This kind of ties in with the first tidbit of wisdom. When giving 100 percent, give it to one thing at a time. Ron says to do one thing and do it well then move on to the next. I can agree to this wholeheartedly. I cannot multi-task, and when I do the tasks I am doing turn out terrible. So whole-ass one thing ladies and gentleman. Don't half-ass anything, it won't get you anywhere in life.

This could be just a guy thing, but, when eating meat, feelings are on hold. The only feeling that should be felt is the pure joy and pleasure of being able to bite into the wonderful creation that God provided for us as food. Meat is a staple. For those of you that refrain from eating meat, thank you. More meat for me.

Go out and experience the beauty of nature! It is so wonderful. Even if I am just reading a book I love to be out in my hammock loving the sun and the trees. The bugs could go away, however. If you are going to paint nature go outside and enjoy it first! I am not much of a painter (I would botch the magnificence of the creation) so I will do all of the standing, hiking and walking in it I can.

This is probably the wisest thing this man has said. I personally do not enjoy cats much. They don't fetch. They don't come when you call their name. They just eat the food you buy them and be lazy. And when people have an awesome cat they exclaim "but my cat is so cool it is just like a dog!" If the best quality of your cat is a quality that a dog possess then it only proves the point dogs are better. And over 50 pounds please. I don't want to risk stepping on ones dog when I interact with it.
