Every successful person had a mentor

[ovcijisir]

Don't put all your trust in a mentor on achieving your goals in life, it is because your mentor and you had different situation that has also a different solution, so i think we need to have faith in our own self capacity to pursue our dreams not just trusting our future to others or to mentors hand.

Having a mentor is not a bad thing, the necessity of it is just to get a good guidance in what ever you decide to pursue (career or whatever), most of the time and for some people too, mentors can be a source of hope for them in which they draw their zeal from and become motivated.  Some people actually needs to pushed before they can stomp into action and that's the purpose that mentors serve for some persons.

Yes, having mentor that can help person with guidance will help to get good at what you do faster, but I believe mentor is not critical for success is one has clear goal and is willing to start over after each failure.

Mentors certainly play a leading role in providing guidelines, but you won't always find a mentor around to guide you. Those who have great goals and objectives in life will be established in life even without a mentor. However, one thing is that if someone goes down the wrong path in life, a mentor can bring them back from that path and motivate them to lead them in the right direction. However, if a parent can guide their child in the right direction, then that child does not need any mentor other than the parents.

Re: Every successful person had a mentor

Having a mentor isn't a requirement for us to be successful in life however, they can shorten your journey towards being successful in something that you want to pursue.

For example, you want to be a businessman, a mentor that would help you will be a good thing but not having one will not make you a successful one already because you can still be successful, but it will take time because you will learn from your experiences, and research as well. Same if you want to be a successful trader, or whatever it is that you want to be successful with. Not having one means you will be miserable already in life or you will not be successful. It will take more time though if you haven't one.

Most of the mentors right now requires you to pay them in exchange for more knowledge, and for me, I think that's a good exchange. Yes, you can see most of the information online for free already, but the lesser time that you will spend in order to be successful is something that these mentors are giving. Time is precious as we know, and we can't turn back time.

Mentor might imply human guidance but the best guide I find is naturally occurring and far less biased then humans tend to be.  Its hard to gain guidance from a seemingly silent partner in any discussion but it can be done if listening very careful.   I do believe that is the best mentor so long as you can stay obedient, otherwise a far more vocal mentor is really worth its weight in gold and imo it might be even rarer to find in life.   The ideal might be to have both sides then you can achieve the amazing things we are all capable of in theory.

A mentor can just give some important guidelines, but the whole life has to be well-organized by yourself. Therefore, instead of being completely dependent on a mentor, you need to increase your trust and confidence in yourself. We must remember that man is the architect of his own destiny.

yes i agree, mentor can share some important tricks with you which could be helpful to achieve your goal, but other things is depend on you,
because you have to invest your hard earned money so risk is your and also profit is your not mentor.
you can learn from mentor but you need to work to success.

They are like drivers who only direct so as not to make a wrong turn or step but their presence is also considered necessary but not a factor and mandatory. as far as I know there are other people who are also successful in implementation of course they have a strong vision and resilience to face failure and they do it independently. It all comes back to us how wise we are.

Yes this is true on which its not really that necessary on having a mentor, because you will really be able to make yourself successful on just being a self learn. There are some situations on which some people doesnt really like on wanting to have some hard work on making up some research or any learning process and wanted up to get someone who do have that knowledge or simply having a mentor to fasten up their learning process. Actually its not really that bad to have a mentor but its good or better that you do really know on what are your goals because no matter which path you would really be taking then it will be that sharing up with the same goal or target.

Although getting successful isnt something that you wont be having that guarantee on which its never been that ideal that you do assume out on what you are currently doing and becoming successful. We do know that life does have tons of trials and errors or simply having some challenges on which you will be needing up to survive or would be able to sustain. It wont really be that a smooth sail ride and this is something that you should be having in mind.

Different countries treat newcomers in a team differently. And a mentor for an inexperienced newcomer is always a very important part on the path to success in a company. For example, I know that in the CIS countries they are quite willing to help newcomers, immediately accepting them into their social circle, which cannot be said, for example, about Germany or Asia. I claim this from the experience of my friends who moved, who complained that they were left to their own devices without the help of colleagues.
Apparently, these are all differences in mentality. And I think that there are exceptions everywhere...

As for a mentor for a single worker who wants to work for himself, for example, in programming, having a mentor is 50 percent of success.

Mentors in life are always there including in terms of work and others because teachers at school are actually also quite basic mentors because they are able to educate and direct students on the right path. Likewise with people who are quite experienced in their field of work who can also be mentors for others as long as they have time to teach others. The point is that everyone always has their own mentor in life from generation to generation because our own parents can also be considered as mentors who provide guidance for all things.

This isn't only about corporate businesses, but it also applies to other careers, such as sports, music, engineering, or anything in general.

What I believe in is that a mentor can surely be of help because if you have a mentor, you basically have someone who will correct your mistakes before you realize them yourself, making it quicker for you to be better at what you are doing. Regardless, if someone doesn't have a mentor, it doesn't mean they can't gain success. We can see so many self-made successful people in the world these days. Some of them didn't even complete their basic education, so mentor is a far thing, they didn't even have a basic teacher.

Success is all about your own will power and dedication towards achieving your goals. If you keep grinding instead of giving up regardless of how many hurdles you face on the way, you will find success at the end.

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

Finding a mentor is difficult but some people are just lucky they have someone who guides them at their disposal. Some people go to the extent of paying fees just to receive lectures and guidance from experienced people. It’s not a bad idea to have a mentor, in fact it is a good thing and it’s very helpful to have one because it increases your confidence and chances of success because they already passed through your stage so they know how to overcome obstacles along the way.

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.

Having a mentor is good but it’s not everyone that is interested in having one and having a mentor is not a must or guarantee that you will be successful. There are a lot of successful people who didn’t have a mentor and still were able to make it on their own, i even know a few people that are successful without a mentor.

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.

I don’t have a mentor and I am not a mentor to anyone other than my younger brother, i don’t take myself to be his mentor but he does sees me as one.

Of course there are some people  who does not like seeking for opinion, instead they will prefer doing it independently without consulting anyone. sometimes they can also fail and take immediate correction, of course this is how we learn. probably when you do it two to three consecutive times then you become a professional, At this point you will very much proud of yourself for learning all alone.

[Cryptohygenic]

Stop relying on someone if you want to be successful, except you're a woman which mean your mentor is your husband.

There's no one want to help other people without any benefit, why someone need to take more responsibility if they can just use their free time for me time, entertain or making more money?

If you're searching for a mentor, you will be high likely get a fake mentor or fall into Multi Level Marketing business.

Having a mentor is not the ultimate to say you have made it in life, making it prosperously requires your dedication and commitment towards your venture.
You can seek counseling from experts or some kind of reliable persons just like making enquiry and not relying a particular to take instruction of how you want your day or goal to be achive. Perhaps one person may not know it all so it is better you look out to different sources as a guide to your ventures but then, your own energy could determine what you are possible to achieve.

Sure, mentorship is good but can never guarantee success, it only helps your guide faster. But your success depends on many factors, which are not limited to you, the resources at hand and your luck/fate/grace.

I know many would query the last but I tell you, it's a fact whether you like it or not. This explains why some people do it better but still fail despite all the commitment and hard work, and even the huge wealth of resources invested. But some people will do a little and prosper in the same field/business easily.

[SmartCharpa]

To be honest, one does not need to find a mentor in order to achieve success in life; there are many wealthy individuals that some people aspire to be like, but they have no understanding of what and how the person suffered to achieve success. We have many kinds of successful people in life, some who achieved their success illegally and others who did it with hard effort. I will never search for a mentor or choose that I want to be successful like this person has done.

However, since hard work is the only thing that determines a person's success, I can only look out for a wealthy person who I want to succeed more than; I don't have to look after someone who has already achieved success. You cannot believe in your mentor; you can only rely on your own efforts. Do those who look after their mentors go to them to give them advice on how to succeed in life? That seems crazy to me because they have no faith in their hard work and how they will succeed in life.

[Hatchy]

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.

Not all though, a mentor helps point you in the right direction so you don't waste your time doing things that doesn't aid your way to becoming successful. Anyone can choose to work hard and meet their goals without a mentor. All they have to do is to put in more efforts to the race and attain their goal in life. I won't lie, a mentor really helps in some ways. As they help you remove those most difficult aspects of the journey.

These things are just guide and if you do find yourself on having that kind of need for your improvement then it isnt really that bad to have this kind of consideration but just like on what others been saying that you can actually be able to achieve success on your own if you do really just that put up that hard work and perseverance on trying out to achieve such goal or targets in life. We do know that when it comes into this aspect on which people will be making up some steps for the better of their life. Success isnt something that you can be able achieve if you wont really be able to do something or simply talks about working hard. If you are really that serious into this approach then go ahead and step up. You can be able to achieve success if you do really just that persevere.

Not all successful people will really be that having a mentor because there were those who achieve up success isnt something that having a mentor but rather having their own self will and dedication and hard work into the plans that they had built on. There are those situations that not all people do become successful and failed out but it doesnt mean that you will be stopping there because at the time or moment that you do have some failure then you do easily thinking on giving up.

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.

[Judith87403]

Yeah having a mentor can be very helpful most times, because there are some certain things we do that always requires a helping hand/assistant from people. We can't possibly do it all alone without seeking for opinion or help from our mentors, more especially when it has to do with something that requires puting our money.

Which is why sometimes having a mentor is considered very important, is just like most of this people who have decided to go into crypto investment when they don't have a mentor who is guiding them on how to go about it. Even if they're going to master it, but by then they most have lose a huge amount of money. Though there are some things that we can decide to do all by ourselves without thinking of getting a mentor, but that shouldn't be when money is involved.

Absolutely right, this applies to all areas of life, and even to leisure: I know a guy who wanted to learn how to play Dota 2 professionally and therefore paid for advice from a guy who was a professional himself. As a result, he greatly improved his skill. As for the topic of cryptocurrencies, it is very important to have a mentor, especially at the beginning, because it is clear that cryptocurrencies have a very high entry threshold, and very often there is a story when one crypto friend was essentially a mentor for another crypto friend. I think half of the people on the forum were brought by friends who were assistants.
