Some define inspiration as something outside yourself that unveils possibilities and alters your perspective. That, in and of itself, is humbling. As one of Blue origin's leadership principles states, "Leaders look to the past for inspiration and knowledge. They know when to ask for help and embrace that help when given. Leaders are slow to take credit for their own contributions but are quick to point out the value of others."

"My grandfather has always inspired me. He is the person who gave me an initial interest in the aerospace field. He is the hardest-working person I know, and he taught me how important it is to read and continually grow. Because of him, I always seek to learn."

Articulate who you are through those who positively influenced your character. It can be someone related to you, a mentor, or a hero figure. Anyone who showed you it was possible to overcome even the most significant obstacles. If you can align your figure of inspiration with their values or leadership principles, even better.
