My elder sister inspired me. She passed away a few years ago. She was courageous and determined. When our dad passed, I was only 11, one brother 14, another 16. Mom was sick. My sister was 19 and took up the responsibility of being the breadwinner of our family. Due to financial problems, she could not go to university though she was qualified. Later in her life, she pursued a law degree.
Another person who inspires me is my life mentor. He was my professor at the university. He got an MBA and a PhD in philosophy. He reads a lot. A very knowledgeable yet humble person. He is also very caring. He is retired now. Currently doing a lot of volunteer work to help the less fortunate people.
Who or what inspires you? A person, book, movie or something?

May be you're not aware of that. Is there someone (regardless if you know him/her personally or not) you look up to or approve of her/his act?

Actually, I don't emulate the people who inspire me. It's just that they have some qualities which impress me and I find them worth learning. It's great that you can workout all that what you want to happen in your life.
