Who is your roleĀ model?Ā This is a question teachers use around the 5th grade or so when they are trying to teachĀ their students Ā how to write an essay.Ā Most of the time, the answer is my mom or dad, or favorite teacher.Ā
As we get older, people say their role models are sports figures like Michael Jordan or LeBron James.Ā What are the qualities that make these celebrities role models? What makes people role models?Ā Is it their attempt at being the greatest in their craft or maybe the way they have persevered in their lives to get where they are today?Ā Is it the way they dress or maybe even the lifestyle they lead?Ā Even so, most of the time, the most important role models in our lives are our family members or close friends.
At some point, as we get older, our role modelsĀ become our family and friends again, just like when we were kids.Ā This is not a bad thing at all.Ā Be proud of who you are and what you have accomplished.Ā Sometimes we don’t even realize that people in our lives consider us to be their role models and aspire to emulate what we do.
