I have 3 guy friends who really look up to their fathers. All 3 of them told me that their father's the best: attended the best university, straight A through all the years, first in class, hard working, one of them took double degree, another one was doing really well in relationship wise (1st girlfriend becomes his wife). Now these dads are all very successful businessman with great family. But my friends have their own goal in life, different persuasion, and different way to show their respect for their dads.
Guy 1 (Age 21): He's so influenced by his father that he wanted to follow his father footsteps exactly like it was. He went to the same university, took the same double degree courses, and he's very eager to get the same straight A as his father did back then. He turns into this man who fights for what he wants and he always gets it in the end.
Guy 2 (Age 23): As he thinks that he's father is so great and he won't be able to compete against him. He gave up since the beginning. He took the opposite way that his father took when he's in college but somehow it always ends with him comparing himself with his father. He then becomes this ordinary guy.
Guy 3 (Age 24): Since high school, he already business minded. He tries to find ways to earn money. If one business doesn't work out, he creates another business. He's really a hard worker. Now he is the guy who's married to the woman he loves since college, becomes an assistant director in his father's office and at the same time has a part time business.
It's amazing how unique a guy becomes even when they have the same 'senior' type who never compel his sons to be just like them.
