Hmm…this particular challenge is harder than it seems on the surface. I mean, really, I don’t think of very many people as role models. I guess because of what I do for a living (social psychologist), I am more likely to find things to admire in most people (and also things to NOT admire! %-). I’m more of a context person than a personality person. But, that just makes this a good challenge, I guess!

Okay, here goes…10 Living Role Models for Me
1. Oprah Winfrey
2. My sister, Terra

Yeah, okay, now I’m drawing blanks. I can think of a lot of people who have a lot of admirable qualities or have done admirable things – but somehow labeling someone as a “role model” is hard for me. It seems like putting them on a pedestal, almost like worship. It’s just not my thing. People are people – we all have good qualities and bad qualities. Sometimes the balance is a little off, it’s true, but for the most part, there’s good to be found in everyone, if you just trouble yourself to look for it!
