Welcome to CC -.-</p>
<p>Ok, Zuckerberg is smart, but unscrupulous. It’s a fact that he did have contact with the Winklevoss twins and he clearly misrepresented his intent. The Winklevosses asked Zuckerberg to help with their social networking site, he met with Winklevosses and said he will program for them, and then about a month or two later releases his own social media site. At the very least he lied by faking interest in the Winklevosses’ endeavor and most likely took some ideas from the Winklevosses. The whole continuing lawsuit thing was not over whether Zuckerberg had broken his word, but rather the twins claimed they weren’t compensated enough in the original settlement. The Social Network is a Hollywood dramatization imo, but that doesn’t change the essence of what happened. Just because he’s rich and successful certainly does not make him “inspiring” to me…</p>
<p>Anyways, Gandhi, Socrates, Cesar Chavez, Ben Franklin, Thomas Edison, Steve Jobs, Miki Endo (google her), etc. List goes on like that</p>
<p>People that inspire me are virtuous individuals who have overcome major life obstacles to achieve great success and/or have the courage to act or challenge something for the better at grave personal risk.</p>
<p>I am greatly inspired by the following people: ice cube because he is an encourages the belittling of women, dale earnhardt jr because he goes fast and turns left very well a skill which, if imitated, can make you go far in life and succeed in any field, larry the cable guy because he typifies how good old fashioned american ingenuity can bring you from the bottom to the top even in todays society. The final few people i admire for very similar reasons: tiger woods, anthony weiner, ahhhhhhhnnnnnoooooolllllldddddd, and a few others because they have all been quintessential examples of fidelity and the good family values which are becoming extinct in this country a good husband is supposed to go out and have sex with diseased women as much as he can behind his wifes back this value has really become less present which is a real shame. I suggest that all of you rethink who you are inspired by because choosing the wrong people to influence you (as you all have) can really lead you astray in life.</p>
<p>I’ve been reading about Nikola Tesla and I can appreciate how much we have in common. Truly, he is a hero among scientists, but nobody else even knows who he is…:(</p>
<p>People who:
Have 4.0 GPA
&
10 EC’s
&
100000+ volunteer hours
&
SAT-2300+ ACT- 35+</p>
<p>But a name would be:</p>
<p>Marie Curie.
Go Radium!</p>
<p>Rebecca Black - living out her childhood dream. Yes, she may not be the most popular, but she did something every little kids only dreams of. Not many kids get to do that and its refreshing to see her doing it even when she receives lots of flack (and death threats).</p>
<p>Amy Winehouse - stuck to what she believed in. She lived her life the way she wanted it, disregarding all of the negative feedback and attention. She loved to party and let nobody stop her. She didn’t let people control her life and she went down living.</p>
<p>The Kardashians - modern day socialites at their best. In all honesty, they’ve been defining what reality TV is. I don’t find them inspirational because of their celebrity, but because of the business strategies they’ve shown. The mom Kris is a good marketer and they’ve built nothing to everything. All of the girls have successful careers now and they’ve all established their own brand.</p>
<p>^ I am hoping to God your kidding.</p>
<p>LeBron James, Richard Branson, Sergey Brin and Larry Page(google founders)</p>
<p>Jack Kerouac, Bob Dylan, Nelson Mandela, Stanley Kubrick.</p>
<p>I inspire myself.</p>
<p>Ok, I am inspired by Bill Gates.</p>
<p>Jackson Bieber because like became raelly popular by Youtube and so everyone and teenage girls and beyond like to him just bc of the songs so he makes a big amount mony and is set 4 life</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Nope lol. I know it sounds crazy, but those are fair examples. They may not be Einstein or Gandhi, but they have been successful (and so forth inspiring) in some manner.</p>
<p>Jane Austen; Henry David Thoreau</p>
<p>JK Rowling and Obama</p>
<p>Helen Keller. It’s amazing how she was blind and deaf since before she can hardly speak, yet managed to graduate from university, write a book andsupport causes. I’d never have the will and preserverance to do that.</p>
<p>
Well, it’s not like you would have any distractions you could use to procrastinate.</p>
<p>I wonder if Helen Keller touched herself sometimes</p>
