When you met him/her?
Why do you want to know more about him/her?
And explain how you feel about him/her?
Introduction: 1
Well, we always come across new people at different places, but some people we find quite interesting that we want to know more about them.
Who he/she is? and When you met him/her?
Here I would like to talk about one such person Karan, who was invited as a guest lecturer at our school for career guidance.
He was a former student of our school and now well-settled in Canada. He was on holidays in India and was invited by the school principal to share his experience of studying abroad to get us familiar with the opportunities ahead. He was quite a stylish gentleman and we all got impressed with his personality especially, his sense of dressing.
Even I still remember the fragrance he was wearing. He got on to the stage (podium) and started to share his experience. His command over the English language was just fabulous and his public speaking skills were jaw-dropping. In his 30 minutes lecture, he introduced us with all the challenges and opportunities that students may confront if they choose to study abroad. We never knew that after completing 10+2 we could continue further study abroad.
Why do you want to know more about him/her? and Explain how you feel about him/her?
I was lucky enough to meet him personally after the lecture to get more clarifications and during this time I came to know how polite and down to earth this person is. He not only answered all my questions but also shared his personal contact for further guidance. I am quite interested in knowing how he has achieved success in such a short period and what are his future plans.
Conclusion:
For me, he is a great inspiration and I hope when I will contact him he will not hesitate to tell me more about himself.

Introduction: 3
In our life, we meet a lot of people. However, only a few people get etched in our memories, and we wish to meet them again.
Two years back, I met a person, and I would like to meet him again.
Who is he/she is?.
He is a renowned motivational speaker from India, and his name is Sandeep Maheshwari.
When did you meet him/her?
Mr Sandeep Maheshwari is a philanthropist. Unlike other motivational speakers, he doesn’t earn money from his viewers. Due to this reason, he regularly conducts free workshops for the benefit of people.
Two years back, I attended one of his live workshops. In that meeting, he talked in detail about goal setting. In his opinion, most people fail in achieving success, because they set unrealistic goals. He said that our goals should be achievable, and we must increase our limits with time.
He quoted one example of gymming, saying that instead of aiming for doing ten pushups a day. The target should be two pushups for the first week and four for the second week. After achieving small targets, we get motivated to do further hard work.
The interaction with him brought a paradigm shift in my life, and by setting small goals, I have achieved success in my life.
Why do you want to know more about him/her?
Mr Sandeep Mahehwari has a boatload of information. I sincerely believe that interacting more with him would help him gain valuable information on topics like willpower, mindfulness, handling failure and many others.
And explain how you feel about him/her?
People like Sandeep Maheshwari are a blessing to our society.

Being a voracious traveller, I visit numerous places. During travel, I meet people from diverse backgrounds and cultures.
Recently while travelling, I met a person and I would like to meet him again.
Who is he/she is?.
His name is Andrew, and he is from Scotland.
When did you meet him/her?
Last year, due to the corona pandemic, our country was in a state of lockdown. When the government had lifted the lockdown and begun the unlocking process, I had a sigh of relief.
As I wanted to unwind myself, I booked a flight for Goa. During the journey, I met Andrew from Scotland.
Why do you want to know more about him/her?
Andrew visited India to know more about the history and culture. Our discussion started with hobbies and interests. After that, we started discussing the world’s history.
I consider myself a person with immense knowledge of history, but when I listened to Andrew, I got stunned, as that person has more knowledge than me about my country’s history.
He told me how the western world sees my country. According to him, the westerners have realized the significance of Indian contribution to the world. Now fields like yoga and meditation are making inroads in the lives of Europeans.
He further advised me that Indians should have pride in their culture because of the things science is coming to know now, the Indian religious texts have that information for ages.
And explain how you feel about him/her?
A discussion of two hours was not enough to fetch information from an informed person like Andrew. I would like to meet him again to gain valuable formation.
I would use the information obtained from him to spread awareness about Indian history among those Indians who have less knowledge about this.

Being a social butterfly, I meet numerous people. Recently I came across a towering personality, and I would like to meet her again.
Who he/she is?
She is a renowned dietician, and her moniker is Dr Rimple Sharma.
When did you meet him/her?
Last year, for some personal work, I had travelled from Chandigarh to Delhi via train, during the journey, I got a chance to interact with her because she was sitting beside me.
Why do you want to know more about him/her?
I want to know more about her because the little interaction in our meeting led to a paradigm shift in my attitude. As I got a chance to interact with a dietician for the first time, I made prudent use of the opportunity.
I was an overweight person at the time when I met her. Seeing my physique, she asked me a few questions about my lifestyle, and based on my answers, she suggested going for a lifestyle change. As per her advice, I started taking all meals between 9 am to 6 pm to practice intermittent fasting.
Her advice has worked like a charm for me, in the last ten months, I have lost 20 kgs bodyweight. I would like to meet her again to gain more knowledge about fitness.
And explain how you feel about him/her?
Dr Rimple Sharma has a boatload of knowledge regarding fitness. She has carved out a niche by thinking beyond the conventional domain. Her advice sounds different from other diet experts, but her input works. I suggest everyone follow her on social media.

Being a voracious traveller, I come across many people. A few of them have such a personality that I want to meet them again.
Who he/she is?
I met a person who is a philanthropist, and his name is Girick Sharma.
When did you meet him/her?
Last month I had to go to a hospital for my mother’s. As the case was of emergency, I was in trouble and found it challenging to take care of everything. Seeing my plight, Girick came to my rescue and started helping me.
He had told me to stay with my mother, and he took care of other tasks like bringing the medicine and calling the nurse. Seeing his attitude towards work, I got confidence, and due to his unabated support, my mom came out of danger.
Why do you want to know more about him/her?
I want to know more about him because after helping me, he left immediately, and I did not get a chance to thank him properly.
Moreover, by meeting, I would get a chance to befriend him. There is no denying this conviction that we become the average of five people we meet regularly. By interacting with him, I will gain a few qualities which would train me to support needy people.
And explain how you feel about him/her?
I feel the world should have more people like him. Because in the contemporary epoch, fierce competition has become an integral part of our lives. Due to this reason, people shy away from supporting others. In short, persons like Girick are a blessing to society.
