My dad
My future self.
Not my dad
My dad was relatively absent in my life busy with work. I know he works hard and does what needs to be done, but he doesn't inspire greatness and lofty goals. He just does what is enough for a stable family. That's good and all, but I want someone bigger to look up to.

Well at least he was working.
My dad has always been a lazy piece of wasted potiential who blamed the whole world for not being able to hang on to a job.
Man, I really want to forgive him and all, but every time I think about all those years of having to write down your parent's jobs on that little piece of paper the first day of class and I just can't call him.
The more I think about it. There isn't really anybody that aligns with my core beliefs, so I don't really find anybody especially worth looking up to. I build off certain parts I like about others, but discard the parts I dislike. I guess it's not so bad not having a definitive role model to build personal character.
there isn't a single man alive right now worth looking up to. the best we can all do is try to become that man
Jesus is the best role model no doubt, but he is more an abstract idealization of man. I was looking for mortal men worth of admiration, but find little connection to them.
i think there are hundreds of men worth admiring out there that have shown themselves to be extraordinary in some/ multiple or many regards of living. but rather than attempting to model yourself after any one of those men it's more worthwhile to let their lives shape yours and merely bounce your personal ideas off of them while attempting to shape yourself (physically and mentally).
on a different note, i think it is absolutely scary how people get when they are involved in an altercation. it really does seem like our brains get pushed back into reptilian fight/ freeze/ flight mode. people stop being coherent, repeat single phrases, fall into blind rage and threats and often do things that they would never do under regular circumstances. it's like people are completely overtaken by their animal nature sometimes.
the types of people you'll find worthy of admiration depend on your personal values. i can think of plenty amazing businessmen but if building a business is not up your alley it won't be of any use. same goes for philosophies. i'm sure,for example, to some Seneca is worthy of admiration because of the virtues he wrote about but if you're more into meditation or a hedonist his teachings will look ridiculous.
>repeat single phrases
This is what gets me the most. It shows the extent to which they're really not thinking things through

Yes, I better understand what it means to make yourself your role model by improving yourself based on a mix of your ideals and others ideals. But if the question of who is my role model turned up during a job interview or something I'd be kinda lost to pick a specific person. Saying I myself am my role model sounds rather arrogant. But explaining it is the constant self-reflection to discern what are good and bad values to derive from this world to build oneself the best he can be is what it means to be my own role model.

God, but being that apotheosis is true, that means you strive to reach divinity. You are god and you need to find your way to divinity through virtue.
