Your role models are watching you...

I was just thinking about the possible benefits of visualizing your role models watching you. There's apparently some good research about just putting up posters of human eyes having a positive influence on behavior. But when I think about my behavior around people, I notice that I feel pressured to act in a way that I think they would like, not necessarily the best way I could imagine.  Maybe by putting up their pictures in your room or at your desk, you could benefit from the values of your role models by imagining them actually being able to see you. For instance, if you wanted to learn Martial Arts, maybe putting up a poster of Bruce Lee could remind you to train.
