A life with no someone guiding you can be a miserable life, no one is perfect that is why we need someone to guide us to the right path this is where the need of a role model arise.
Who is a role model? To a lay man definition a role model is a person that you emulate his or her behavior and guide you to the right path, someone who we admire and try to imitate their behavior in other to be like them.
I grew up having best of friend as my role model, someone that wants the best for me, someone that want me to be bigger than them 💕. I grew up having my parents as my role model because my parents have been guiding me ever since i was a child till this moment. Nobody wants you to be bigger than them only your parents, well some people prefer someone else as their role model but then i will always take my parents over and over again, not all parents give advice or guide their children because they think they have become an adult but I'm free to talk to my parents at any moment about anything and ever since I've been doing that I'm always succeed in all my ramifications , my parents never get angry anytime i choose to do something they will find a better way to explain even if the thing is bad.
Factors to be considered when selecting a role model
A goal chaser :- a role model is some that set a goal for a specific time and make sure he or she work towards the goal and achieve it, before choosing any role model the person most be someone successful and the only way to be successful most time is by achieving the goal you set.
Positive energy only :- a role model doesn't give bad energy or get give up on their dreams, they have the energy of not giving up in whatsoever they are doing in life, either it is taking them much time or not they will keep pushing forward because they believe in themselves.
Non quitter :- no matter the circumstances a role model might face in their life they don't give up or quite on their dreams and this is what makes them keep going on.
