Nowadays, most of the public are glued to the screen and follow the news about celebrities and current political issues. I have nothing against them, but personally, I'm not keen on following this news. So, if I want to talk about a person who is popular in the news, I would prefer to speak about Anthony Robbins. He's a really successful person in his life. He's not Iranian; he's from America, I think. I first learned about him when I was in high school and saw one of his motivational clips on YouTube. I think it had a significant effect on my life. Unfortunately, he's not very popular in Iran, so you can't find any news about him in Iranian media. On the other hand, I believe he should be quite popular in his own country. I wish I could meet him personally because I think he could provide valuable and informative insights for your life, as well as inspire you to pursue your dreams and expand your horizons to have a better life and help you become a better person.

Nowadays, most of the public are glued to the screen and follow the news of celebrities and current political issues. Also, I have nothing against them, but personally, I’m not keen on following these news. So, if I want to talk about a person who is popular in news, to my mind, I would prefer to speak about Anthony Robbins. He’s a really successful person in his life. He’s not Iranian, he’s from America, I think. I’ve known him when I was at high school and for the first time I saw one of his motivational clips on YouTube. I think it made a different effect on my life. Unfortunately, he’s not so popular in Iran, so you couldn’t find any news about him in news of Iran. But on the other hand, I think in his country, in his own country, he should be so popular. I hope I wish I could see him personally because I think he could provide you with a glomerous and informative information for your life, also inspiring you to pursue your dreams and expand your horizon to have a better life and help and insist you to be a better person.
