List the people you admire and look to for advice…
We always admire people and no matter how great you are, I am sure you may have a role model
Let it be it’s your father mother or school teacher during your childhood days or your close friend whom you wanted to see and talk, even spend time with him/her everyday
Or at work could be your coworkers or the leader who always inspires and motivates you to go on achieve your wildest dreams, at times guided you towards the right path
Well from the books of Mahabharata till today in this modern world
Admiring someone is not new let it be the Ekalavya who admired Dronacharya and mastered the skills of archery just by self-study just watching his guru from afar.
This has been made totally possible through today’s multimedia and social network technologies much easier where you can just pick up a mentor who influenced you the most and literally start learning by following them.
Here are some of the tools available today like the LinkedIn network, YouTube, TikTok
Definitely, I have been inspired by many wonderful people around me and sought for advice let it be my parents, siblings, friends, teachers, colleagues and of course leaders I have worked with and I am not an exception whom I have loved the most inspiring faces like the great Steve Jobs in the tech world who was a master of communication.
OfCourse who doesn’t like humble and polite Sundar Pichai CEO of Alphabet Inc and its subsidiary Google. One of my favorite quotes by him is
You might fail a few times, but that’s Ok. You end up doing something worthwhile which you learn a great deal from.
Sundar Pichai
There are tons of people we get inspired by which is what we learn and continue to improvise, the list never ends is my belief.
Infact there are many qualities that can define an admirable person like:

- Loyalty: Admirable people often act in ways that support others’ welfare and uphold strong moral standards.
- Accountability: Admirable people take responsibility for their actions and hold themselves accountable for their mistakes.
- Resiliency: Admirable people are often able to bounce back from setbacks and challenges.

To conclude, we always admire someone at each stage of our life who takes our mindset and us to the all-new next level.
