Sir, from where did you get the inspiration to become an eminent scientist?

I had three people who inspired me in my life and who gave me a mission. The first was my school teacher in 5th class in Rameshwaram. His name was Sivasubramania Iyer. He gave me a mission in life to fly. The other person who inspired me in life was Satish Dhawan. He taught me how not to make problems your master and to work hard to achieve your goals. The other great person I worked with was Dr. Vikram Sarabhai. He taught me the importance of having a vision.
