As decius says, Richard Dawkins is a wonderful role model. There can be no better scientist than someone like him who promotes his ideas with passion, but when he finds out he is wrong, he celebrates it and points this out in his books, and finds it exciting.
Emulate Dawkins. Be passionate about your ideas, but also be that rare person - someone who, when they find they are wrong, treat it positively as part of your education.
I think there are few greater and more satisfying things than intense intelligent debate between people who disagree, but respect each other.
