How Picking the Wrong Mentor Can Slow Your Success
By Robert B Vance Robert B Vance
If you want to experience success in your career or business, or even perhaps in your personal life, then it might be helpful for you to find a good mentor. Successful people know that it\'s important to find efficient ways to finding success, and often a mentor can help steer you in the right direction. Learning from someone else\'s successes (as well as their mistakes!) can save you loads of time, energy, and frustration.
Choosing a mentor is an important step. Choosing the right mentor is an even more important step. Not just anyone can be a mentor. You should really look for certain qualities when selecting a mentor, and even after you identify those particular qualities, you need to have a mentor that you can work well with and be comfortable learning from.
The mentor that you select should be well ahead of you on the journey to success. Your mentor should have similar goals and values to yours. Very importantly, your mentor needs to want to share their ideas and strategies for success with you, without being threatened by your imminent and astronomical success (well, that\'s the plan, right?).
Merely finding someone that you admire that you feel would make a good mentor is not quite enough. This is a reciprocal relationship, and the mentor has an investment in your success, too. That means that the mentor needs to believe in you just as much as you believe in yourself.
Frank and honest discussions between mentors and protégés can ensure excellent results for both parties involved. The protégé gets the benefit of the experience and wisdom offered by the mentor, and the mentor will often learn some new ways and perhaps work through the next steps for their own success by breaking down the process for the protégé.
Your goals and dreams can be realized, and you can achieve success and find the abundant life you\'re hoping for. Finding the right mentor can make this happen even faster!
