Similar ideas to Find A Mentor Naturally
A mentor is someone who is on the same career path as you, but further along.
They guide you through things like how to avoid potential pitfalls, and how you might approach the next steps of your career.
Find a person that provides useful insight into life.
The things that person shares should be of value to your life; the mistakes your mentors made, the good decisions they made.
Everything this mentor share IS a learning lesson.
A mentor is not someone who gives you direct answers, but someone who challenges you to know the right answer.
And in life, you can't be spoon-fed all the time. The role of a mentor is to guide you and give you the wisdom in knowing the answer.
