How to Navigate Life with Lessons from SUITS
Written on
Chapter 1: The Allure of SUITS
The decision to write about this popular series was not easy for me. Despite my struggle to articulate my thoughts, I felt compelled to share my appreciation for the show. Those around me were often taken aback by my enthusiasm. One day, my best friend finally asked, “SUITS again? How many times have you watched it?” “Not sure, maybe six?” I replied, bursting into laughter. I suspected there might be others who shared my passion.
As I binge-watched the series once more, I gathered my insights, hoping to resonate with other SUITS fans. And if you aren't a fan yet? Don't worry—you might find something of value that could inspire you to join the ranks of SUITS enthusiasts. So, what is it about SUITS, a drama centered around a law firm, that captivates me? In essence, the series offers lessons applicable to real life. Let’s explore how.
Make Use of Emotions
“I’m against having emotions, not against using them.” — Harvey Specter
Emotions can be powerful tools when wielded correctly. It's crucial not to let feelings cloud your judgment, especially in decision-making. I’m still on the journey of mastering my emotions, much like Harvey Specter and his mentor, Jessica Pearson. Emotions can enrich creativity—be it through writing, painting, or music. Embrace your feelings; let them define your authenticity and become your unique strength.
Win Through Character Growth
While the charismatic Harvey Specter often steals the spotlight, I find myself increasingly drawn to Louis Litt as the series unfolds.
Harvey Specter? A major player—handsome, clever, calm, loyal, and determined.
Louis Litt? Often underestimated—awkward, impulsive at times despite his Harvard education, and emotionally vulnerable.
Despite Harvey's undeniable charm, Louis becomes more relatable as the narrative progresses. He’s not perfect; he mirrors the complexities of real life. Initially, you might feel like confronting him, but as the story evolves, your perspective shifts, leading to empathy. This character development resonates deeply, illustrating that while Harvey Specter is a rarity, many of us share traits with Louis Litt—flawed but resilient.
Find Your Support System
Seek out individuals who will stand by you through thick and thin, much like Harvey Specter and Donna Paulsen. This support doesn’t have to stem from romance; it can flourish in strong friendships, like the bond between Harvey and Mike Ross.
Build a chosen family that can provide the same support as biological ties. Such relationships become invaluable during life's storms, standing firm when times get tough and celebrating victories as a unit. Remember, “Loyalty is a two-way street.” — Harvey Specter.
Be Yourself
It might sound cliché, but being authentic is essential. Authenticity allows you to live freely without the burden of pretense, much like Donna Paulsen, who unapologetically embraces who she is.
As I grow older, I've learned to appreciate my individuality. In truth, most people are more focused on their own lives than you might think, so just be yourself—without causing harm to others. Genuine relationships will naturally endure.
Cherish the Real Ones
Louis Litt’s complicated relationship with his secretary, Norma, serves as a poignant reminder. Though he often expressed disdain for her, her passing left him heartbroken.
Don’t take the people in your life for granted; moments are fleeting. Louis’s tribute to Norma reminds us to seize opportunities and express our feelings while we can.
