You really expect to EVER reach the level of the people on your list?
Having a role model sets you up for disappointment, failure, and depression. There will come a time when you realize that you will never approach (much less obtain) the ludicrously impossible ideals you’ve set for yourself. Self satisfaction is a much more fulfilling goal.
