Name 10 People you admire. They may be living people or figures from history. List the name of each person and what they are/ were known for. Pass this challenge on to a friend!

Here’s my list:

• Martin Luther – German cleric, leader of the Reformation
• Mahatma Gandhi – Indian social activist instrumental in India’s becoming independent from Britain; “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
• George Washington – American revolutionary war Commander in Chief and first President of the United States of America
• Abraham Lincoln – Civil War era President of the United States of America
• Helmut Kohl – Former German Chancellor, he held the key to Germany’s reunification and unified Europe
• Martin Luther King, Jr. – American cleric, civil rights leader, social activist.
• Peter Strople – The most connected man in America with a heart of Gold.
• John O’Leary – The most inspiring man in America
• Herbert Grönemeyer – German song writer and actor “Das Boot”
• Muhammad Ali – American Boxer, sometimes down but never out

This is more difficult than you would think at first. Once I got started I could think of more and more people whom I all genuinely admire.

I challenge Tom Hill, Tom Jenkins, and Brett Blair to create their own lists and challenge three others!

Happy pondering and challenging!
