Why is it Important to Have Heroes in Your Life?

in mindset •  6 years ago 

Hello, Steemians!

One of the few sensations that can give the life of men some purpose to fill the emptiness of meaning is their aspiration to become like someone or achieve something of value.

These ordeals often give us a sense of meaning and we plan out our days in accordance to the steps which we will have to take in order to realize them.

Why do we need to have heroes as an aspiration in life?

To answer that question, we need to take a more attentive look at the nature of heroism.

Heroes are, in a way, the sum of what humanity has to offer. They are the best of us, always struggling to put everything right in a world where everything is going wrong.

Heroes are resilient, courageous, honest, kind, relentless, and undefeated. Simply put, they are the embodiment of the ideal values that everyone strives to achieve in their own life.

History tells us who we used to be, science tells us who we are, and heroes tell us who we want to be.

We all have our heroes. Fictional or real ones. Your hero could be a character from an old book series, or an inspiring person who has achieved a lot in their lifetime and has been influential in your own personal growth.

Whatever the case, we always need someone to look up to. This is helpful in more ways than you could expect.

For instance, a person who has a hero or a role-model to look up to will always make the right decisions in difficult situations.

When a person is facing a dilemma or an unsolvable enigma, they can always remind themselves of their heroes and their personalities, and ask the most helpful question: What would they do if they were here instead of me?

By answering that question, we become the best of what this world has to offer… just like our heroes!

But this can also be destructive in a way. There are many different characters in a story, as there are many celebrities and famous people around the world.

When you choose a role model or a person you could look up to, you need to extensively analyze and review their behavioral pattern and seek out their moral values.

Following down the path of some people would do us more harm than good. Imagine if your hero was in truth an egotistical person who only cares for himself.

Well, I don’t know about your moral values, but that is not the person I would be willing to follow in life.

Choose your heroes wisely. We all need people to look up to. Some people even go a step further and proclaim that their heroes are themselves in the near future, and the person they will grow to become.

Think about this.

Who are your heroes, and how close are you to their character?

A BIG HUG!

Very good posting Sir, you are right, someone is going to grow up in our life, or someone sees someone to motivate and that too is like a hero to us.Like there are a lot of people who go ahead in front of the difficulty in their life. And we see them when we have some difficulty in our life, we feel that why such people can face difficulties and then go ahead, why do not we?

To grow up in life and follow someone's sucess or guidance we need inspiration from someone. That inspiring person can be anyone and whom we can call a hero. My hero is my father because whenever he thought so many things about life. He achieved a lot in life and all his achievements inspire me a lot. Wherever I am stuck jn something I ask his advice. Even sometimes he doesn't know the kind of problem i am stuck but his guidance always work and helped me to come out of problem. I agree that everyone would have different perspectives in this topic and I also admit that everyone is right. Its a very personal choice nothing is wrong in that. Thanks @chbartist for the post

That's a good point. I never thought of heroes as the "sum of what humanity has to offer." I also like what you said about heros "telling us who we want to be." I think those are great points among others. I agree that we should choose our heros wisely. I'd have to think a bit who my heros are..

A hero is somebody who gives of himself, frequently putting his very own life at incredible hazard, for more prominent's benefit of others. In any case, for example, in war circumstances, what is useful for others will dependably separate supposition into contradicting camps. ... "Hero" is dreadfully frequently connected nowadays absent much idea.

Saludos @chbartist! Soy venezolano, en este sentido quiero honrar a él Sr Simón Díaz, conocido como el “Tío Simon”, fue un cantautor venezolano que llevo el genero de música popular venezolana a todo el mundo! El Tío Simón es mi héroe.

I love to be inspired by heroes and mentors that demonstrate how adversity can be overcome! They present the ability for humans to be powerful and independent individuals in a collective society!

It is true that the influence of the hero in our lives remains and we always keep on inspiring them and this is a good thing.

Long ago that I don't have a hero in my life. According to your recommendations I will look for one. If Juan Guaidó able to hell out Nicolas Maduro and the government of villains out of Venezuela, no doubt he will be my hero ha ha ha. Greetings.

Everyone needs a role model to follow in his life. Heroes of faith and of great deeds are an inspiration to the fainting hearts. They provide maps of the path of life to go on and spark a light of hope to the weary.

I completely agree that it is very important to choose the right heroes to have in our lives. In an age where we are constantly surrounded by social media that is full of Kim Kardashian's, as a woman, I fear for the young girls growing up in a world where they are constantly being told what is beautiful in the most superficial sense. All this does is hurt their self image and teach them a very messed up set of values. Of course this also applies for men as well who believe they have to be overly masculine, fit and good with the ladies but I can really only speak from the female perspective. The world needs more messages like this one. Heroes should be role models that set good examples and put others first. I hope to witness a shift in culture where being "sexy and rich" is not the criteria required to be a role model but rather morals and values. Thank you for the great post!

Heroes and mentors are important. After all you become who you surround yourself with and who you aspire to become. sometime we have to walk away fro those around us or walk a long mile to find our heroes. I find mine in book and on TV screen. what a nice feeling to be mentored by your hero?

Very good post, I share this, I'd discovered a superhero Sandpaperman, Lijaman in Spanish. I am starting in steemit and will try to explain all about Sandpaperman and his dusted powers.

For me there is no champion in my life because there is no person worth the buddight you must be strong just for your self no one he will love u like u do .the truuth

Good day @chbartist! In my opinion sometimes it's not important to have heroes in our life, sometimes we need to have just a good example from somebody else. And follow him. Like a teacher who should be good example for his students.

Why is it Important to Have Heroes in Your Life?

It is Important to have heroes in my life because they serve as my guide in my daily tasks of my life. Without a guide how could I survive?
The first time i was born, I was guided by my heroes, my parents, until now they guide me. There also other people that are my heroes, my sisters and my relatives and my friends.
And most of all, the source of all heroes, our Almighty God.

I would have to say President trump is my hero.
hahaha! im just kidding.
King author is like my pick for a hero
He is a very courage's Knight
Who's mission is to protect his people from danger and obeyr the chivalry code.

People need heroes because heroes save or improve lives and because heroes are inspiring. ... Heroes elevate us emotionally

Ideal heroes encourage us achieve success ourselves better hope.
We inspire to be better then be are.
Nice article.

i would agree having a handful of heroes in your mind be it celebrity or otherwise can motivate you to strive to be a better person in your own life.
i wouldn't call myself a fit person but seeing those that put so much effort into living a healthy active life pushes me to be more proactive in eating healthy and doing more physical things which is certainly something a desk job artist needs more of.

Your hero gives you inspiration , they gives you mental power to fight from problems . When we face face any problem then we think about our ideal and say oh! he also faced such type of problems . My ideal is former indian president and scientist hon'ble Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam sir .
nice @chbartist
THANKS!

Hero to me is someone who shares love with me. To be a hero to someone, I should share love with that person.

@chbartist Absolutely true
we must have a hero in our life to visualise how we have to improve to be at their level of excellence.

Heroes are more likely to help, save, protect, make the world better, and do what no-one else will than leaders or role models.

My prime minister Narendra bhai Modi my Idea Hero he is genius persons I am also follow then .

Heroes are someone to aspire to. When it gets rough we need an example.

Posted using Partiko Android

Yes, it so important that every one should have a Heroes in his life, to follow his good think, i have also a heroes in steemit platform, Mr. Chbartist, because i just try to Simulation him.

One of my heroes is a character called 'Ace Rimmer' from the British scifi comedy, Red Dwarf. He's a like a higher self version of one of the main characters.

When I read your daily writing it inspire me being a living

@chbartist our ideal gives us guts to face the problem .

Our heroes motivate us are beings that inspire us, motivate us and are exemplary. It is good to have a model to follow without losing our identity. My model to follow is Jesus Christ, and to try to be like Him, every day is a great inspiration, to follow his steps, his teachings, his examples, is gratifying for me.

We all need people to look up to.

Meh...@chbartist this time we'll have to agree to disagree. When I think of human heroes, I'm left either sad, and/or disappointed. The problem with putting any 'heroic' labels on human beings is that they always come up short. I'm not into fantasy heroes...aka Superman, etc...As I think about it, people who I thought were my life heroes either died or disappeared on some level. So, for such reasons, I chose Jesus as my only HERO decades ago; and, He has been worthy of the same every step of the way.

People simply can't be there for you come thick or thin...mere mortals (self included) simply can't be heroes worthy of the accolade.

Peace.

Dear @chbartist sir
Until we are mature, we live in the world of fantasy. Those things are more important in our life than we are affected. But as the maturity comes, our ideology changes. All of us are influenced by the ideals, from the thoughts of the person to the person's thoughts, and in his life he is the hero of the game. But in reality, the role of the protagonist in our life belongs to the same person who taught us to differentiate between good and bad, teach us to follow the right path, guide us when we need to, always motivate us to do good and always have a good friend Always stand together in the form of This hero can be our brother, father, friend, sister, mother or any other.

A like the concept the writer tries to tell us. Hero is not someone with a superpower. It can be anyone, an inspirational being. Someone you look up. Thank you!
