I especially admire Gina Carano, who seems to be a woman of incredible integrity, yet incredible warmth and love, as well. I may be glorifying her a bit, but I follow her Instagram. She's tough and strong, but kind, like a real life Wonder Woman should be.
As for Joe Rogan, I've never taken him to be smart, however, he is wise, if that makes sense. He knows he isn't the smartest, but he is willing to open his ears, learn, and improve himself, which I also admire. Few people seem to be humble enough to be a student of others and absorb knowledge and life experience from so many people. And so many others like to think they have all the answers in life, which makes themselves look more foolish than wise.
There's even guys like Jocko Willink, who runs the Jocko Podcast, and seems so obsessed with jiu jitsu, it's become a meme. Dwayne Johnson may be the weakest on this list, but I did legit want to grow up to be like him, when I was a teenager in the 2000s.
These are all people I'd like to learn from and become more like. Goddamn, I CRAVE this level of discipline and humility in my life! Which really makes me think people with fighting backgrounds tend to be the most well balanced people, possessing both strength and kindness to their character. Do you think there's any truth to this?
