Do you have role models in your life?
Every now and then you meet someone who inspires you. It may be their smile, their friendly personality, their demeanor, their thoughtfulness, their spiritual faith...
Role models can be picked up through books too. It's amazing how certain authors have impacted my life personally. I like to follow them on social media to stay inspired. I like to buy more of their books as they come out.
We are always drawn to others who have something we'd like to emulate or who impact us in positive ways.
Social networking and the Internet are great ways to pick up mentors or role models that can come right into your home virtually at any time.
It's good to keep a few good models in our relationship satchel even if we only admire them from afar, through the pages of a book, or through their blog posts. When we get side-tracked they will inspire us. When we are lost, visiting them in person or virtually helps us feel "found" again.
Who do you have on your list?
