Every successful person had a mentor

[Sjkah]

You do not need to have a mentor before you can become successful in life. There are many successful people in life that does jot have a mentor.

Some people only like after a role model and they may want to be like such people and work towards it.

But know that success is not about having a mentor or looking after someone as a role model. It is about how smart you are in achieving successes. Opportunity and exposure are also very important.

Well said!

There were successful person or people who do able to reach up the peak or pinnacle of success that doesn't have a mentor. You could be able to learn things on your own or simply being self taught on which sources of information could be found online.It would really be just that depending on you on how you do divide your time on dealing up with multiple things on which we know that theres other priorities that we do need to do.This is why it does really need up that discipline and control and proper handling of someones time.

On the time that you do saw yourself have a hard time on having some self learn then this is the time you do consider on getting a mentor  to fasten up your learning phase on various things.Success isn't something that be a guarantee that it would happen because there would be factors that affect out the path to success but of course it doesnt mean that it can't be solved out. It's a matter of sustain and survival because not all would really be that having that strong will and dedication when it comes to this manner.

Not all of the successful people had mentors. Many have succeeded by using their own talent. Now you should use your time. Those who use their time properly are successful

When you do not need a mentor in fighting for success then you are very sure with all the abilities that you have and with the hard work that you do of course you will be able to be successful because if someone only relies on a mentor in achieving the desired success of course it will be difficult for them to achieve success because they only do according to the mentor's instructions and very rarely do we see them succeed beyond the achievements of a mentor, of course it would be better if we could try on our own and be sure with all the abilities that we have in achieving success.

I agree with your opinion if someone is not sure with the hard work they do and relies more on advice than their mentor of course this is an unreasonable action because it is difficult for anyone to achieve success when they are not sure with the abilities they have and the hard work they do themselves.

There may be situations when you simply run into some result and cannot overcome it, in which case you need an outside perspective so that a more experienced and successful person can evaluate and make their comments. Sometimes this may be enough to start moving forward, but as my experience shows, this is most likely connected with the person’s beliefs, with his inner world, and in order to grow further, he must first change within himself. This is very difficult work, which is almost impossible to do on your own.

thats true, making it in life is not about having a mentor, it is still possible for one to be successful without having a mentor. some people believe success is in the hands of a mentor. well, it is all good if one is lucky to have a mentor in life . their is a saying if no one motivates you, then motivate yourself, same thing about success in life. if you have no one to put you through to become successful in life, then the only choice is for you to be able to make success yourself.

success is mainly achieved by personal lifestyle and habit, development and if one is unable to work on these, then i think it will be very difficult achieve success in life no matter who you have as mentor.

well said. many people here focus too much on how mentors help someone to show what is wrong and what is right to achieve success, but they miss the important point that success comes from oneself-- about how someone can be smarter and more clever in achieving their success. how someone can develop their opportunities and utilize their resources as best and as well as possible. that is more important than just having a mentor.

[Freepips]

I would like to discuss this here to understand how many people decide to take this step to find a mentor?

I asked myself this question because in almost every book or interview with successful people I come across a mention of them having, or even currently having a mentor who guides them, helps them develop, and perhaps points out mistakes that will not allow them to grow.

And I was interested in how many of you at some point decided that you needed a mentor, how difficult it was to find one and how did he help you? I suppose that few people use this, maybe even out of fear, because for example I don’t even know who it could be and how can I ask my future mentor about this if I manage to find such a person.

And maybe some of you have been a mentor for other people? Share your experience too, if it is not too much trouble for you.

Having a mentor in your journey to a success life is essential, but on the contrary you dont need to have a mentor to be a successful person in life. Been a successful person is all about your mindset. Is better to have a role model, someone whom you  emulate and hope to be like. Success from my perspective is 95% mindset and 5% hard work. I always tell my folks to always feature in the picture of their future. Been a successful person is not all about having a mentor is all  about having a creative mindset that is free of all encumbrance.

I will acknowledge that if a mentor really is helpful to an individual reaching their success. We cannot take out their credit for that.

If they did, then so they did. We learn from ourselves but our thoughts are limited so if it is accompanied by another guy whom is the mentor and has got a lot of helpful thoughts and suggestions.

That will contribute to someone's success and we have to appreciate them that for doing it.

When you have a mentor who freely guides you towards success, I think you owe him a lot. If you pay that mentor for all the time and knowledge they share in your success journey, then you don't owe them anything. Even if a free mentor doesn't demand anything from you, I think you need to return the favor in an appropriate way. Not everything has to be money, but something else has to be worked for.

Having a guide or mentor is good, but someone can also achieve success without a mentor. You can learn autodidactically and increase your knowledge by discussing more often in the right space, this is as good as having a mentor, I think.

[jstyler]

I think having a mentor is a great way to accelerate learning, but what I find really interesting is how people find their mentors. Do you guys think it's more about who you know or what you put out there in terms of seeking guidance?

That's right.

It's a courtesy and some gratefulness that you have to show him/her for helping your way into your success. This always have worked for someone who understands and appreciates a lot.

Those mentors deserve it when they are asking nothing in return but just genuinely happy to share what they have been through and they want to pass on a legacy that they've learned with their time.

[Dunamisx]

Fornus to more more successful like the ones we have been seeing  ahead of us, then we must have to be learner and also take any of them for mentorship, this will help us towards getting more closer to their own success or even going higher than where they have reached in the Pinnacle of success in life, having a mentor is like having a covering, which will always stand for us when we needed them most.

[Obulis]

Actually very difficult to get a mentor much more when intentionally looking for one. Some how and some times it's usually that person you know.
Sometimes for some people after apprenticeship, their master finally becomes their mentor.
Business connections, social networking/movement and many more has aim some a mentor, who do not only guarantee guidance but also share and show their results, consistency and energies on their business/doings

Actually its not hard and they've been that scattering all over the place on which the only thing that you should really be minding is that you should be avoiding into some fake mentor on which they are really that trying out to milk out with those newbies that paying up careless on the information that they are giving on which this is really that actually can  be able to find it online which is really that totally for free. This is why its not really that something that ideal or something necessary that you do have a mentor because you can be able to make yourself self learn on what are those other people been able to learn from their mentors. It is really just that a matter of self actions and hardwork on trying to search up with those informations. It is really that recommended that you do really know into the career on where you are hovering into and set out plans or something a roadmap on what are the things that you would gonna learn. If you do find yourself having some hardship on trying out to learn something then if you do have the spare money or budget then this is the moment that you would be getting some mentor but as much as possible it will be best on going solo. Getting information from the net is not that hard, plus trying to read up on different real time experiences from other people will really be giving out that edge or awareness at least on how you will be able to avoid and deal up with things accordingly.

Yes every successful person had a mentor, let's use this forum as an example. We were introduced to this forum by someone. I didn't just wake up one morning and started doing Bitcoin, I was inspired by someone and I approached him to mentor me, a mentor is could be someone you know personally like a friend, family member, colleague or someone you connect with through their lifestyle or business dealings. If you see anyone that inspires you positively don't hesitate to meet them it is never that hard.

It is not right to have the misconception that a person's success depends solely on their mentor. Many times, it has been seen that many people with very poor family backgrounds have become famous in the world. It's not that you don't need a mentor in life, but most of your success can be achieved only by giving importance to your own hard work and perseverance. Yes, but if you rely on a mentor, they will try to solve some temporary problems in life seriously.

Reading too much motivational books has clouded the mind of OP. Obviously in all the books i have read they literally say they do have a mentor. Someone they looked up to while growing up. But the readers take it the wrong way. Having a mentor is good but that is not a guarantee to be successful. People can be successful without having a mentor. There are several ways people have been successful without having a helper, mentor or anybody to look up to in life. Preparation, hard work, smart work, opportunity and luck is what a man need to be successful. You just need two or more of these things to be successful.

Yeah you are right, is good to have a mentor but becoming successful in life is determine my your decision to succeed, sometimes making it in life requires you to push yourself beyond unexpectation if your mentor is working very hard you need to work more harder in other to achieve success, if you only depend on how your mentor works and capacity you may not become successful and that is why you need to push yourself beyond unexpectation, mentors are good they play a very important roles in our life they are the ones that motivate us and sometimes when life becomes difficult they give us encouragement but the reason why we choose to become successful is not because of our mentor is because becoming successful will give us fulfillment in life, it is when we have made the decision of becoming successful in life that having a successful person who will mentor us towards achieving that goal comes to our mind and because you have already made a decision to succeed your mentor will only guide you and there by making your journey much easier, there are people who never had a mentor but they are very successful and that is why your decision is what can really helps you become successful and not mentor, mentors can only guide you.

A subject can be mastered very quickly if one has a mentor but if one is only dependent on the mentor one will not achieve anything well. It all depends on your effort, the harder you work and try to learn new things the faster you will be. Your mentor will only show you some roads that you have to cross on your own.  Mentor is not mandatory to be successful. If you can work hard on your own then you can succeed without a mentor but it will take a little more time. One of the big benefits of Mentor is that you can cross a lot of roads with shortcuts

In fact, everything depends on your willpower, self-effort, and strong goal setting. A mentor is definitely necessary, but more than that, you need to move forward on your own research and responsibility. You have to work hard, remember that there is no shortcut to success, success will come only through long-term willpower and hard work.
If someone does not want to learn from themselves, then not 1 mentor, but even 10 mentors together, will not be able to improve them. So success depends on yourself, on your self-reliance, hard work and continuous learning mentality, if you work hard, success will definitely come.

This issue of mentorship was common back in the days when the internet wasn't there. People had to rely more on others who they saw where doing better in the career path they had mapped out for themselves. You know there were no much means to get knowledge from outside your environment, that's one thing that made many people relied so much in having a mentor. But in this present world that idea or thinking that you need to have a mentor before you can succeed is gradually fading away. Because people have now understand and realised that they can succeed on their own without a mentor. The internet has now made it possible for people to have access to informations and materials that can help you discipline yourself till you achieve your desired goals in life.

In this we have many ways to seek direction and meaning to the growth of the society as well as the person. In any governance system, every human being has his or her own measure of how to chart his affairs in the right perspective. Some need human contact that will help them go through the different information sources independently some do not require that form of assistance. Therefore, there are no rights or wrongs in life because the key is to always be in a state of progress and seeking what we have set our sights on. The possibility of acquiring knowledge is now much broader and a person can get the necessary information himself, without depends on others. What needs to be done is how to utilise all the information at our disposal in the right manner so that our chances to be in the right side prevails.
