My father has been my role model. And I always looked up to him - be it his management philosophy or his approach towards life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My role model is my dad.
My dad is a good role model for me, and then I had a high school coach that really helped me out when I was struggling and made a big difference in my life.
My role model was my grandfather. He instilled in me the feeling that no matter how successful you are you have a responsibility to help others.
My father wasn't the best role model to me.
My father was an inspiration to me; I made a few movies with him and I loved working with him. Everything about him - his whole approach to work, as well as his love, enthusiasm and respect for it and other people in the business - was inspiring. I was very lucky to have him as a role model.
My mother is my biggest role model, and she showed me how to do it right. She was very present in our lives and has a great career of her own. Same with my father. So I knew it was possible going in to stay closely connected to my children while also chasing big dreams. And it's given me great perspective.
I think a role model is a mentor - someone you see on a daily basis, and you learn from them.
I was very fortunate to have some great mentors. A father that was always in my life set the example every day at home. Everybody asks me, 'What was your role model?' My role model slept 20 feet from me every night. I could always go talk to him and ask him questions no matter what it was about.
My dad has been a big influence on me, because he's always had his own business. He really taught me business sense and how to be a focused individual, but also how to have fun and make everyone around you have fun.
I looked up to my parents because they were very successful in what they wanted to do. I was lucky; I didn't have to look far for role models.
