Abstract

During the phases usually intended for learning, we are more susceptible to external influences, which has inevitable implications on who we become.
What we learn during childhood and adolescence has a central importance to what we do in adulthood. This being an unavoidable and obvious truth, it is worth remembering that the environment surrounding us, the person who transmits the wisdom and values that are instilled in us also shapes the future. Each of us finds in our memories someone who had a particular influence, someone who did not simply transmit the expected knowledge. Someone who with his/her example became a role model and who made binary decisions easier to make.
