Now don’t tell me that we can Google everything these days, then I would say Google is your mentor.  Well, This Article is about the role of mentors in our lives. As a kid, we never know most of the things, right? But we were given the constant guidance from our parents in many things irrespective of small or big, starting from speaking in a language to choosing a career. Then, we were guided by our Teachers in their respective subjects. Sometimes, we would have chosen our friends who have an expertise in a particular area for suggestions.  So, what are all these people called? More or less, the mentors.
