：I’ve been looking at my heroes in

：I’ve been looking at my heroes in a different way. I respect, admire and of course look up to them. I still follow them and care about everything they do. However, I don’t want to be them and I certainly don’t want to mimic them, like I used to. What’s changed is I don’t feel I need to pick their brains or ask for too much advice all the time. They can help me build myself and set a clear goal, just by doing what they do. It’s true that you have to be your own biggest fan, because otherwise, who else will? You have to realize that other people don’t have the answers all the time. You might even surprise yourself the day you come to disagree with them and feel yourself simply unable to just nod along. I definitely feel more distant from my heroes now, but it’s made me feel a lot stronger.
