It's not that I idolize a particular person. It's more that I use them as a vehicle to tell a story, build curiosity, and teach about various things. For example, the story of Paganini and how he had a strange/rare disease that made his fingers extremely flexible. Or Einsteins solar eclipse experiment and how no one believed him but he persevered, etc.
Or how Oppenheimer assembled an incredible team and [some of] the challenges they had to overcome in the Manhattan project.
I guess I am more looking for interesting story telling based on real life event
