What I learnt from Disney's Tangled

Tangled is one of my favorite Disney movies and I've watched it a million times. Here is a list of all the things that I've learnt from Tangled:
1) Always be on your guard if you decide to trust a stranger.
Rapunzel keeps her frying pan handy all the time and it does come to good use on multiple occasions.

2) It is okay to take risks and break rules once in a while. 

The minute Rapunzel gets out of the tower, she goes dizzy with fear and excitement. She took a huge risk, and it paid off! She went back to her real parents, she got rid of Mother Gothel AND got a 'happily ever after' with Flynn (or should I say Eugene? That's what she preferred).

3) Try to bring out the better side of people 


Even the meanest looking people can have a good side to them. (except Mother Gothel of course!)  

4) Make friends whenever you can... you never know who could help you in times of need!


Remember how quickly she befriended Maximus, and Maximus helped her through her journey. Also, the thugs at Snuggly Duckling... they were the ones who saved Flynn from being executed!!

5) Observe your surroundings

Rapunzel notices the painting in the city and remembers it. Although it doesn't strike her immediately, it helps her realize later that she is the lost princess. Be observant, you never know what could help later.

6) Things are not always as they seem.




Remember how heart-broken Rapunzel was when she saw Flynn row away in the boat? It was all Mother Gothel's trick! You can't even trust your eyes sometimes.

7) You don't need magical powers to have a wonderful life.



Rapunzel lived locked up in a tower with a witch because of her magical powers. After she lost her gift, she got her freedom, found her lost parents and started to live life on her own terms!

8) Enjoy the journey



Sometimes the journey is more fun than the destination!

9) Go out and see the world! It gives you a new perspective on things



Living cooped up within your own world prevents you from seeing the world from different perspectives. Go out... explore! Rapunzel was under the impression that the world is full of bad people and only her 'mother' was good. Only after she left her tower did she realize how wrong her impression was. 

So these are a few things I learnt from Tangled. Tell me if you have any to add! :)
