Don't worship people


Admire. Respect. Learn From. Emulate. But never blindly worship. 

When we idolise a person, we twist their mistakes and flaws into qualities and strengths. We make excuses for them when they don't need us to. When we worship a person, we lose objectivity. That person you admire is just human, but has achieved great things despite his/her imperfections and weaknesses. That's important to remember.
