Finding Mentors to Guide You
Having a good mentor is a
very valuable asset if you want to get places in your particular field. It is
even better if this mentor is somebody who has achieved a lot in the field you
are passionate about or want to work.
We must remember that mentors
will not always come to us, but sometimes we must go to our mentors and show
them we are capable of their guidance.
a) Find someone that can spare you some time every week.
You will have to work according to the mentor’s schedule for this.
b) Make sure the person has achieved or is working
towards achieving something similar to your larger goals in life.
c) Help your mentor grow by sharing with him or her what
new things you have learned.
d) Listen and submit to your mentor – Once you have
chosen your mentor, listen and reflect on what you mentor has to share with
you, before you make any comments on the advice he or she provides.
Reasons you must find a
mentor now are:-
a) Correct Mistakes - Life is not long enough to make all
the mistakes that somebody else has made in the past several times. You can
learn from the mistakes made by others by studying and learning from them.
b) Right Path –
Your mentor based on their evaluation of your situation will lead you down the
right path. This will save you years of effort with regard to trying several
different paths.
c) Learning from the Best - Learning from one of the best
minds of your field will ensure, you get and connect yourself to the best
knowledge, resources and people in your industry.
