He is my hero because he cares and protects other by putting his life on the line. He is also my hero because most of the time he is a lone wolf, but he can work just as well with other people. This trait is huge because many people either work well by themselves or with others and can not do both. The other quality I admire is the quality of perseverance.

He initially did whatever he was told to and never questioned what someone told him to do. But throughout the novel, and later movie, he realized that the people of his town were not living full lives. Jonas takes on the leadership role by taking his "brother" and leaving the town. It must have taken a lot of courage and determination to go against what every one says. His actions have an extremely large effect on the people around him in a positive way. He was not just being a selfish teenager but was taking action for the greater good, which I believe is an important attribute to have.]]> 2016-09-25 23:25:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126243196 020981 https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126251849 Jay Gatsby is my hero. He shows overwhelming ambition when forming an extremely successful career. He started out with little; however, he made something of himself. He never stopped believing in first impressions, and he never gave up. ]]> 2016-09-26 01:42:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126251849 022423 https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126255368 I choose Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation because she never gave up on her dreams. She is a very determined character and always helped others become better people. In my opinion she was one of the strongest leaders in the show. She always fought for what she believed and never let people discourage her. I strive to be a person like the one she portrays.  ]]> 2016-09-26 02:36:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126255368 https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126255542 My hero is Tris Prior from the Divergent series because of her leadership skills. She is a determined, will powered, and brave young woman who strikes to achieve her goals with no stopping. This video sums up the series with clips of how Tris improved and never gave even when she failed. It was amazing when she was in training to be a dauntless, how she started at the very bottom of the list and strives to reach to the top. She went through many bumps in the road including the fact of almost being killed, however she eventually reached the very top of the list. ]]> 2016-09-26 02:40:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126255542 https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126256043 My hero is Elle Woods in Legally Blonde because of how determined she is to do well in life. She struggles with the fact people including her boyfriend believes she is too dumb to do anything smart in life, however she uses this criticism to her power as she enters law school. Although she uses everything pink and fancy, she strives hard to get her degree. Of course, she has some bumps in the road that occasionally slow her down, however nothing brings her to a full stop. Her desire is to prove to the people who doubt her that she can do what ever she would like to in life and still be successful. ]]> 2016-09-26 02:48:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126256043 020942 https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126257524 I chose Shaquille O'Neal the former NBA star. I chose him because not only was he a leader on his basketball team he also a leader off the court now a days. Shaq is the type of guy that people like to be around. Everything that he does is in an effort to make other people better. Shaq is the person that can bring groups of people back together. He is the definition of a "People person".

Master Yoda was the go to man for advice on what a person should do. People would go to him because they knew he was wise. He helps teach the jedi how to use the force the right way so they won't be corrupt and use their powers to harm others but instead use it to bring balance to the galaxy. He also lead many of the jedi knights into battles against all odds. He helped teach the smaller jedi that it is not important on your size when fighting but how you use the force as an ally. I know if you haven't seen a single Star Wars movie none of this makes any sense what so ever. So let me say this, Master Yoda taught a jedi named Luke Skywalker and taught him that only knowledge and understanding can make you a great jedi not strength and power. This could all be applied to being a leader.]]> 2016-09-26 04:01:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126260823 https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126358424 I chose Michael from the Office because he portrays a strong but sometimes gullible leader. Although he sometimes makes mistakes Michael always makes it his goal to understand how his associates feel. At times Michael can be strict and harsh, but he only does this for the greater good of his associates. A good leader isn't always serious, they boost their workers morals especially when they need it!]]> 2016-09-26 13:27:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126358424 https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/126388279 My hero is Jack Dawson from the movie "Titanic" because he was caring and kind to everyone. For example he was kind to the rich even though he was considered one of the poorest people on the ship. He also never gave up on his love for Rose and to me that is inspirational. Throughout the whole movie he supported her and wanted her to be safe at all times. Even when it came to the boat sinking, he let Rose lay on the piece of wood so she would not die in the freezing waters. Not only did he help Rose but he also tried to help the other people knock down the gate to get through to the upper decks.

Hes been through a lot over the years from failure, ultimate success, injuries, wins, and losses but he still remained on the top of his game and put himself aside to set an example for the rest of his team and fans. David Ortiz means so much to so many people for the things that he did for the game of baseball and the city of Boston, Rallying an entire city together after the Boston Marathon Bombing and to me that is pretty incredible that a whole city believed in a single man, a baseball player that things will be alright and that they were going to make it through. To me thats a pretty great leader. ]]> 2016-11-02 05:11:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jkravitz1/uty6o4dth3ka/wish/134675795
