Being a Role Model

I want to make sure that I am a good role model for the people around me.

Being a Role Model

I have been thinking a lot lately about who I want to be. One thing that I want to be is a role model for people.

I have noticed that young children are always watching people who are older than them. And I do mean ALWAYS. With that being said, I want to make sure that I am a good example for these kids. Yes, you may not know who is watching and when, but that just means that you have to be on you’re A game at all times. If you act one way when you think no one will be watching you, then you could miss an opportunity to speak to someone. Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t think that you need to go around and act fake because that will not help anyone at any time.

I know that I did say that young children are the ones that are watching you, but it is not just limited to them. There will always be several different people of different ages watching to see what you may do. With that being said, you need to always been the good example that people need to see.

I like to think about the fact that I have helped several people in the past. I have two lovely girls that I babysit sometimes who I care about so much that I want to make sure that I am the best example that I can be for them. Maybe one day, they too will be examples for young girls who want to learn from them. I would not want to do anything to mess up the example I can be. I know that I am now in college, and it can be easy to get swept up into the party scene or stray from my faith in God, but I want to keep a classy persona and let people know that I am a strong believer in God. To me, I love the idea of being different and a positive example for people. Let them see the difference in me.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
