The interviewer is trying to discover more about who your role models are and why they motivate you. Think about who has mentored you or a successful professional that you aspire to be like. Perhaps you look up to a parent who was a hard worker or a teacher who encouraged you to become who you are today. Whomever this inspiring person may be, remember that it's an answer from the heart that the interviewer is looking for.

"I find inspiration in a variety of people and things. I would have to say that the person who has most greatly inspired me has been my grandmother. She always had a smile on her face no matter how hard she worked and she loved everyone. She was well respected and always gave more than she received. I try to live like her as much as I can."

My Father has always been my inspiration. He was the light of our family. He was the glue that held up together. Even in his hardest days he always put a smile on my face. He taught me to use woodworking as a stress release. He always told me to never give up on my goals and dreams.
