Role models are good in some ways, but you shouldn’t let them get in the way of becoming your own unique blogger. We all have something new we can give to blogging that our role model did not have.

One of the richest people in the world! According to Forbes, in the Top 10 – but that was some time ago when I checked. He was No.1 for a period of time, if my memory serves me right

Anyways, going back to your post – blogging role models…hmm I wouldn’t say I have any, but ShoeMoney and ProBlogger have both had an definite impact on my blogging “career” so to speak.

Taking inspiration from your mentor and applying it your own situation is the biggest benefit of a role model.

Great counter argument man, I mean how many people do Darren Rowse or even John Chow really know who idolize them?

Appreciate it, I do my best here. I really do.

You’re right, there is always the “top person” in any field who can provide to be a source of inspiration for those around them. I never thought about it like that before, thanks for sharing!

I don’t think you can just choose a role model, it’s something that you will just find out on your own, you get what I’m saying?

Haha, thanks Jeet. Appreciate it.

I love what you said here “I believe inspiration for excelling in blogging can be derived from multiple sources.” That’s like a really cool quote there.

Yaro is a great guy and I have mad respect for him. I don’t see Darren as a role model for me, as I said above, but I do respect him.

A very valid point Dean! It’s a very debatable topic it would seem.

No, I don’t idolize Darren Rowse. Sure, he runs a great blog, but he is by no means my role model. That would be very cliche of me anyways. :p

I actually don’t have a role model now that I think about it. I mean, I respect a lot of people, but role models. Coming from the guy who just wrote a post about how you have to have a role model, haha!
