How to Find Kickass Mentors to Help You Grow Your Side-Hustles
Because you will need them, whether you like them or not
We’re all probably on the search for a mentor to help us with our creative pursuits. Yet, the truth is, no one likes to be mentored. We reach out because we want our to-be mentors to sprinkle gold dust on our heads.
If you think like that, forget mentors. They will just annoy you with excessive advice. Plus, you are smart enough to grow your side-hustle to a Fortune 500 company in 3 years, am I right?
If you really want help though, and are willing to put in the work too, you need experienced people to show you the way.
This is how I find and hook the perfect mentor for my side hustles.

Two quotes resonated with me on this topic. The first one is from Cuba Gooding Jr.
“Don’t let people disrespect you. My mom says don’t open the door to the devil. Surround yourself with positive people.”
