Sweatpants & TV | Vikings, Season 4, “A Girl’s Guide to Viking Life Lessons”

While we continue to wait for Season 4 to return, let’s look at some real life lessons women can take away from Vikings. Surprisingly, none of them are “how best to sacrifice a cow or axe your coworker for that promotion.”

1. Enjoy the simple things in life.

2. Be patient.

3. Life is too short to drink bad wine.

4. Have a bestie you can talk to.

5. Stand up for yourself and make others respect your personal space.

6. Experiment with new looks.

But know when to say when.

7. Don’t rush to emotional judgments.

8. When in doubt, the buddy system is always a good idea.

9. Don’t take crap from anybody.

10. And finally, always be yourself. Unless you can be Lagertha. Then always be Lagertha.
