Types of Mentors– Age is not a barrier to be a mentor. As I said, everyone could be a mentor. There is no restriction for one to be a mentor unless they have a good guiding and shaping mindset to lead the mentees on the right path possessing those skills mentioned in the first section. Based on these criteria, the mentors could be,

I hereby thank you for your kind attitude in guiding me in all my personal and professional career.
Note #3:
You had taught me to take meaningful risks even though the depth of the risk is high, and results that I faced based on the risk taken have most often been ended into success. These all had happened only through the mentoring sessions that we had, the moments we spent understanding the problem state, whatever hard situations you dealt with. Still, you never gave up on me spending each second at your possible times. However, it wasn’t flexible for you.

You taught me more of the learnings gained through unfamiliar zones of getting involved in experiencing and measuring the in-depth difficulty to solve them. Even the place that you are vacating is just an unfamiliar situation without having your guidance in presence, but I’ll still contact you if things are settled there for you.
Note #5:
Right from the day that I started to get suggestions regarding my career and personal life, I was able to find out my counter abilities which were stopping me from reaching success, and you spent your entire time and heart listening to my calls, the problems that I had related to my work-life and everything. It is slightly disheartening that you are moving away to another place, and all I want to say is good luck on the journey.
