I don't have any specific role models, but there's a bunch of people I respect and I know they made me who I am. My parents are my biggest role models, but their are a lot of saints and historical figures that I admire. Pretty much anyone will a critical disability that keeps an optimistic attitude is a role model for sure!
These two guys are the most inspiring fictional characters to me:
Goku: His never ending joyful attitude and optimism is extremely appealing to an anxiety-riddled person such as myself. I also love working out and there's really no better role model than him. Although, I try to get my priorities straight!
Batman: The guy is totally selfless and gives everything to help others. He's been emotionally crippled in his youth and it's difficult for him to overcome it, but he never gives up.

I don't think he is. After all, he loves all of his sons, his adoptive father(Alfred in case you're confused, i refuse to say he's just his butler) and is very friendly to Gordon and Superman.
@i_am_lightning: That's true. I was just thinking of Mask of Phantasm while writing that, but you're absolutely right. He changed a lot and it's a bigger reason to love him! That definitely makes him a better role model! :)

Most of my heroes are dead, but I read Warren Ellis' Crooked Little Vein when I experience writer's block for more than a week. I wish I were more like both Neil Gaiman and his wife, Amanda Palmer, in many respects. Stephen Hawking is an incredible human being, but at the top of my list? My wife teaches me daily what it means to be engaged with the act of living, and she sacrifices so much for her family, including myself. I hope someday I can be as strong and lovely a person as she is.
