Who was yours? Someone that you looked up to (besides your parents) that maybe taught you something that still stays with you. How has that person changed your life?
A boss? A teacher? An Imam?
Are you in that phase of your life that you are someone’s elses mentor (besides your kids).
Re: Good mentors
I only take mentorship form the people who have fruit on their tree. I do have mentors in life. I dont think that one can be successful in life without having mentors. The mentorship could be active or passive ... but it is required

hmmmm
none!!
I judge ppl based on exceptional qualities they got. Now as a whole personality.
We had a little boy at our house who was able to solve/arrange that block puzzle thing in less then 10 mins.
Different ppl have different sets of qualities.
Like nj has some exceptional qualities. So does tlk. U know every onc has some thing which can inspire a part of your personality.

hehehe ..
so to live a successful married life, I am not going to take advice from my parents if I saw them struggled through their marriage. Just cause they love me does not mean that they can be my mentors in that area as they do not have that fruit on their tree..
In case of active/passive ... I dont need to attend mentorship courses. I can listen to or read someone's work and learn from it .. that is what I meant by passive mentorship.
Mera baita muji apni naseehatain kerta hai and I think he also have same attitude so main bas ye kahti hon yes you are right. Because at many occasions even if you think your opinion is different then your child you have to think that he/she is looking at the world with their own eyes and their experiences and world will be different then yours so just listen to them let them learn from life not from Dr. Asrar:p

In regards of this thread I am agreed with Tillo’s thoughts
Re: Good mentors
No one except my father (I know what you said in your original post) It's very hard to find people who geniuenly are concerned with your well-being without expecting anything in return so I yet not have had any person who i really appreciate for who they're or have taught me.
Re: Good mentors
I am a mentor to many people.
I have garnered many qualities from a few people who are not with us today but are gone and prominent figures.
