Sir Patrick Stewart, whose brilliance far exceeds the norm

After touching on mentoring, if I could choose someone myself, it would definatley be Sir Patrick Stewart. Perhaps most noted for his performance as Captain Jean-Luc Picard on Star Trek: The Next Generation, this great thespian bought to the sci-fi genre a sophsitication and dignity which was one of the reasons that so many rnjoyed the show. But it isn’t merely his acting chops which makes me admire Sir Patrick, its also his humility, his ability to poke fun at himself.

His intelligence, rationality, calmness as well as experience all delivered in his brand of humour serves as an excellent role model. I think his unique approach is best seen the below clip in which he comments on digital technology.

However, we also see a man who isn’t afraid to take on issues he believes in. In this article Sir Patrick discusses his own experiences with domestic violence.

If I can be half the human being that Sir Patrtick Stewart is, I shal be very pleased with myself, one only wonders the advice and wisdom he could impart.
