In other words... some people like to emulate those who have walked the walk and have reached home post... I'm one of those... I have a ton of heroes, mentors and gurus... I'm a PD junkie... And other are not attracted to what could be called hero worship... therefore they will not seek or find them...
Hope this answers your question...

Well, I was trying to think of people that I actually knew, and it just wasn't working. Nobody really stands out. I've been influenced and inspired by many great people indirectly, though. (Dale Carnegie, Napoleon Hill, Gandhi, Donald Trump, Ayn Rand, ect) However, none of them really stand out from one another, either. I'm the kind of person who can love a band for 5 years without even bothering to find out the names of any of the band members. And I probably don't know who directed or wrote 8 of my top 10 favorite movies. I guess I just see what I like and don't really care where it comes from. So I think everybody is my hero. You're right up there with the rest of them, Shamou.
