The series teaches us that it's absolutely okay to ignore your best friends wishes for your own selfish reasons.

It also teaches us that normal kids born to normal parents will never reach anything remotely important, unlike kids with special powers/skills, born to parents with special powers/skills.

And last but not least, it teaches us that you can be an asshole to a woman that loves you, but don't worry, she won't love you any less for it.

On the other hand, I sometimes think that Naruto's ninja way of not going back on his words might not be that wrong. It just needs one hell of a discipline not to say anything that you won't regret later.
