A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself” (Campbell 1). When we think of heroes most of us think of movie stars or professional athletes, but it’s not always about your popularity or talent it can also be about how you help society. What I think make a great hero is someone who is able to overcome his or her obstacles in life, is highly motivated, and has plenty of bravery.  

In order to be a successful hero you must be a highly motivated person. Without motivation you would not be very successful because you would have no ambition to try and make a difference in the world. I think Rodney Dangerfield is a great example of this because he started he career at just 15 and he died while he was in the middle of a movie. Also when his wife tried to make him quit he just blew their many years of happiness and divorced her. In one of his quotes he stated, “At twenty a man is full of fight and hope. He wants to reform the world. When he’s seventy he still wants to reform the world” (Dangerfield 3).

Another person that is consider a hero is Martin Luther King JR. He was a civil rights activist, Baptist minister, leader, fighter, and humanitarian. Mr. King fought for what was right and never gave up. H e used nonviolent approaches to get his point across and acted respectfully. Martin also was very brave to stand up for African-American citizens during a time which segregation and racism. Due to his courageous actions he was rewarded with the Nobel Peace Prize and other awards. Through his actions and beliefs many people looks to him as a leader and hero.

Bravery is a great trait for a hero to posses. I think bravery is a key quality because you don’t always know what lies ahead of you and you have to be brave to continue. A good example of this is Charles Lindburgh. He was the first person to fly across the Atlantic Ocean. I believe that took a great amount of bravery because no one had ever made it across, so he didn’t know what lie ahead of him. One of his many good quotes he said, “The most effective way to do it, is to just do it”, (Lindburgh 1).

In conclusion, Heroes comes in various shapes, colors, sizes, and has different qualities. There are people who are recognized as heroes because they have courage and they care enough for others to risk their lives. Or they are noticed as a hero because they have to be quick on their toes and care to the patients every need. Though, these made be some heroic people who make us safe in our day to day lives.
