Are you Luke Skywalker or Hans Solo?

I think that many people, especially men would prefer to say that they would aspire to be more like Hans Solo. Luke Skywalker seems squeaky clean and from what I remember, just too damned decent. Bring on a bit of Hans Solo’s swagger, revolt and real hunky charm.

Within Wealthy Affiliate, you have quite a few Luke Skywalkers floating around - which is fabulous. They are busy helping others, sometimes to the point of neglecting their own personal websites; maybe hoping to climb those WA rankings and make it to the dizzy heights of Ambassadorship.

You also have a flurry of Hans Solos who infrequently appear in the community, but just get it done and when they do stop by from time to time, it is always a pleasure because they are so knowledgeable, know how to market themselves and I would like to believe, do fantastic business.

However, it is the chosen few, the uber cool, that I shall crassly label, the Hans Skywalkers (and you know who you are!) who seem to tick all the boxes, valiantly achieving everything, always helping others, giving so much, whilst maintaining the highest kudos and an ability to be, well, just the damn finest in so many areas. It’s a real pleasure and inspiration to have you here.

Like many others, I fit the C3P0 mould, but believe that with enough time, motivation and hard graft, Hans Skywalker is achievable.

Incidentally, this post should reach the top spot in google (slightly muffled cough).

It all came from Japan.they are the classic characters of achievers throughout history .

Really...is that true? I am starting to feel quite ignorant about Star Wars.

Actually,I LIKE LUKE SKYWALKER because when a friend is in trouble he (like me) doesn't stop to think ;he leaps right in there to help immediately. Of course this gains me many friends and a few honest enemies Luke SKywalker IS as king Arthur and Hans is Merlin However i got your point. Just thought too much mushie stuff needs a bit of an edge haha All the best Rick

Rick, thanks for your comments and indeed comparisons with the King Arthur / Merlin legend - edgy stuff. I think I would need to watch Star Wars again to glean a more measured assessment of the lead characters.

Yep, agreed regarding the analogy. Thanks for your kind comments on the musician front. Still playing every day and continue to love it.

A spoofy analogy. And am sure a creative musician too! ^_~

Now this is creative! And brought a smile, not so wry, "-) to my face!!!

Thanks very much for the comment. Creativity in abundance. Business acumen seriously lacking!

You left out R2D2 and Princess Leah ;)

Yep, should have at least worked in Princess Leah for 'equality' reasons. R2D2, too technical and I could not understand a word of what it was saying!

Hmmm... who am I? I must be an Eewok or young apprentice. Thanks for the Star Wars analogy Alan this is great!

I have to admit I cannot even remember these characters. Just too long ago :( (only saw the original 1978 film .....in 1978!)

That's all right Alan. If it makes you feel any better I thought it was for boys and didn't watch until I was in college. Now I watch with my boy!

That's a different view on things. But hey I like it. Me I am more like Old Ben. I do what I have to. I use my powers for good and in the end I will see the power of the force and I will embrace it to become part of a greater force. The force is strong with you yes? Now go get'em kid! This is not a Jedi mind trick. LOL Use the force!!!!

Aha, the force, it's all coming back!

fair points well made- and good for a chuckle, thank you.Andy

A chuckle you say. This is serious stuff!

Interesting analogies

Gordi, I trust that your 'interesting' is a euphemism for 'nutty/ridiculous/whacky/....;)

No Alan, I meant is as in "cute" and witty
