Finding Motivation successfully

One day, we came up with another motivation :since the mosquito is biodegradable, maybe we can reduce the waste such as needle. I connected with a needle company which professionally produce specific needles. The CEO of the company treated us really nice, and we surprisingly found that he's daughter's family live in south Africa, therefore, he shared many stories of his grandchildren's school, the environment there, and the stereotypes that we have when we don't deeply understand them. He explained different kind of needles exhaustively, and recommended us what kind of needles do the undeveloped country mostly use. We told him about our prproject, especially the comparison of other screening methods. After discussing few questions, he said he really impressed by our project, and gave us few tips of marketing our product. In the end, we asked him why he was willing to spend few hours chatting with students ,and he said," Only the CEO with vision knew the importance of inheritance, above all, I feel younger talking with high school students !"
