Who is your favorite mentor and what did you learn?

I've had several mentors, very special people who graciously offered me advice that made me a value to those who depend on me. For example never take your personal issues to work, (when you open the door to work you close the door to your personal life) offer your job one hundred percent of your attention and focus. That did two things for me, it offered me a break from personal thoughts and it made me a valued employee.
