Do you have a mentor? Leave a YES 👇 if you do!

Firstly, I think as individuals constantly growing and improving, one way to up our game is by learning from a Mentor. It could be someone you look up to in your team or an amazing page you follow on social media.

In this era, we are bombarded with knowledge and information. But unless we do anything practically, we won’t learn. They help us in that process by guiding us and giving correct feedback.

They’ve been through what you want to do. Don’t you think they’ll have some life experiences that you can gain immense value from?

So how to find them? You find out people doing well in your passion/niche. Offer them a giving hand. Tell them you wanna learn from them and you’d work for them in return.

Should you work for free? In my opinion, it works if you’re just starting out and have zero knowledge and experience.

And what do you need to be successfully mentored? There will be times where you’d just be waiting and not doing anything. And you’d feel like you’re not learning anything, but you do learn even during those times. You learn patience. It’s very crucial in a mentor-mentee relationship.

Why else do you think you need a mentor? Comment your thoughts below and I’d love to know about it 😇
