Re: The Responsibility of Being a Role Model

To some degree, I agree. I don't think you should change yourself because others are watching you or listening to you, but rather because that change will better you as a person or some personal justification. Not because people are watching you, but because it is the right thing to do.

Thus I hate the phrase "gracious professionalism." Because it makes people do what they should have been doing all along. GP isn't what your grandmother told you because I know for a fact my grandmother couldn't even spell gracious professionalism, she told me about "playing nice," and "treating others how you would want to be treated," and "being a good sport."
