When I reflect on people who inspire me, each person fell into one of the 3 different categories. 1. people who I want my career to be like. 2. people who I want my life to be like. 3. people who I want 1 specific thing to be like them.



Career:


Brene Brown inspires me by how far she has come. She has influenced so many. I want to be like that. I want to give TED talks and have people listen to my works and books. I want to interview people, study behavior, and talk to people all over the world.


Laura Dailey—I am inspired by what she has accomplished only two years out of high school. She has written her own children's book and is now doing camps to help kids learn about themselves and emotional resilience. She also does coaching. She has the same motivation that I do: to teach kids to be emotionally resilient. So, I want to follow in her footsteps to make change.


Leigh German - I am inspired by her podcast and vulnerability. I want to have a podcast where people can listen to me. She is also in my same industry except she is working on moms so that moms can help their kids. in im inspired by her ability to be vulnerable and personal.


Start Kime - I am inspired by how he thinks. He thinks logically and with evidence. He has a platform where he has his life written out and he is going to train an ai on himself and so when he dies the ai will live on and you can ask it something and it will answer like he would. I want that for my legacy and my family


Elon Musk - I'm inspired by the secorses he has. He could go into any problem in the world and start solving it just like that. He just recently started doge witch is going into government fraud and wasting with money and is doing awesome he just decides to do it where as if someone else tried imagine how hard it would be for them to do that.



Life:


Dad - My dad is so inspiring to me. he is who I want to respect me there are so many ways he inspires me. 1. he reads and listens and thinks. he has the influence where when he says something and is excited about it everyone thinks its really important. 2. he is competitive and athletic but winning isn't everything he can loose and still have a good time. he gets really physical just like me. 3. he has been able to improve himself and change to the feedback he receives.


Mom - my mom inspires me a lot. when my mom comes to to something its always better. she has the hype she can make things fun or funny. she is fun but also can hold a line. she has these amazing ideas that she brings to life. she empathizes with people and comfort them and doesn't judge.


Jesus Christ - he is the most humble person I know. I usually have a bigger ego so people who are awesome and humble naturally inspire me. but christ he is inspiring because of his pure goodness. all his actions are good. plus his wisdom he knew and knows the secrets of the world and I want to have that as much as I can. he also cares what people think because he is human but he doesn't let those thoughts effect his actions. so he sees people defying him and he calmly handles it with wisdom and kindness. I want to get as close as I can to that.



One Part:


I am mostly inspired by people around me who I hang out with and know really well. these people I have one thing that I really admire about them and am inspired to improve myself.


Maddy Howard - she is totally ok with not knowing something if she doesn't know something or is new at it she calmly and goofily starts learning and isn't ashamed or embarrassed when she doesn't do it right. I struggle with that a lot. I feel i so embarrassed when i start to learn something.


Amelia Hales - how boys look and talk to her. Her strong confidence and goofy comments how all of her siblings look up to her. How we all know something is good when amilia is coming. Everyone wants to be like her. Sometimes i feel like im totally going to be like her in my year but sometimes im like how is she like that! There's no way i'm gonna be that i gotta do something different.


Molly Hajje—I really love Molly. She is close to my heart. She is pure goodness. She is always kind. She doesn’t have an evil streak, doesn’t want to win, and doesn't have an ego. And no one dare hurt her. She is the good that I want to be more like. She just gave me a Kendra Scott necklace for my birthday. And it reminds me when I am at basketball practice that I have my own community that loves and supports me.


Alison Krooge - Alison is so good at communicating graciously. She always says something good when responding to someone's text. She also gives herself constantly and doesn't let people give to her. She also loves physical touch, loves language, and gives good hugs and snuggles. Regina—she is so good. She is organized and stays on task. She listens to everyone, gives really good advice, doesn't gossip, and stays to her rules.


Nefi (from the Book of Mormon) - is a really good leader. He has a tough situation with his brothers, and he fights through it. He is faithful and leads his family. He uses every communication method that I could think of.


Aurora Sterling - she truly loves me. She sees all of me and loves and admires me for it. That is inspiring in itself.
