Every successful person had a mentor

[Mame89]

You're right success has nothing to do with a mentor all that time, like those ones that inherit their wealth or these that grow from country where there's so much opportunities to stay a life. Both successful people still need a mentor, mentorship is very important in life , but is not a guarantee for success.

You really think success does not have anything to do with mentor? Now just imagine if the mentor is not there to give you some important information on how to become successful did you think you could achieve succes freely without undergoing some challenges? The reason why we need mentor is so as we can be guided on what to do the steps to take to bypass the obstacles that might come our way. Although most folks wouldn't mind doing their thing alone, personally I feel it's not advisable especially in a field that you know absolutely nothing about.

An individual's success does not lies beneath mentorship, it is very possible for an individual to go a very long way without a mentor. But the fact is that sharing other people's experiences helps a lots in the journey of success, but that doesn't mean you should always count on other people's opinions, because they will not always be right. The most important thing is to apply the skills that you aquire from learning, and knowledge and experience that you gain, you can use the opinions of others if they align with your knowledge or requirements. Your mentor may be wrong sometimes, and besides some mentors are deceitful. If you are able to find a good, honest, and knowledgeable person then its fine, but you have to be extremely careful about who you chose to be your mentor.

Success can be achieved without a mentor, but having the right mentor can accelerate the process. However, with a mentor we still have to be the captain. This means that every decision we make comes from our own thinking not from the mentor.

Realistically success can be achieved without a mentor if you continue to learn and read. We live in an increasingly advanced internet era. Many successful people started out on the internet, starting from scratch without any connections. The advantage of not having a mentor makes us more independent, more creative and less reliant on others. Having a mentor can also make you successful because with a mentor you learn faster and can avoid high risk activities because the mentor provides a broader perspective and avoids fatal mistakes.

What I mean is that the OP title is wrong because he says everyone will be successful if they have a mentor implying that not having a mentor means being unsuccessful. Having one or the other doesn't necessarily make you successful, but having both is better. Because having a mentor is good but not a must because the most important thing is that you yourself carry it out by continuing to learn, being responsible for your decisions and daring to take risks.

Right because we need a mentor who will guide us to be successful in our life . Many people are getting guidance from the uneducated people who did not go to school but they have experience of the field and they are earning big in the respected fields. Many people are getting guidance from the books because books can change your mindset and we can adapt our mindset by the mindset of rich people who are getting success in their fields . There are many platforms on which different kind of people are available who are giving their opinion abd people are giving attention to these people because these people achieved big in their life as they did hard work when it was need of them .

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.

I would like to say that mentorship is great and if anyone has it, it likely to be an added advantage. The reason is that, it allows for you not to have the same pitfalls as your mentor. The road you currently travel has been traveled by him/her so they are in the position to guide so that the same mistakes will not be repeated and which translates to getting to the destination faster because you are walking with someone that knows the road to it. Although that is not to say that is the only way, as there can still be a successful travel without the mentor. It just means,v you have to figure it out by yourself.

My submission

Your submission is valid in my judgement, having a mentor saves you a lot of stress of figuring out so many things all by yourself, having a mentor will take you steps ahead of those that doesn't have that's if you are you plays your own roles very well because you have your own roles or part to play alongside the whole process, in my secondary school days I had one through which I got certain foundation which is still helping me till date, there is a reason why a mentor is always some one who has gotten certain experience before you, it is a privilege for those that knows it's value and approach it.

Success is as a result of hard work, if you work smartly in this era you don't need anyone except your data and phone to succeed, success does not rotate around one person, we can be successful without mentorship.

Until you get into the journey you will then understand the need for a mentor, even though the word mentor is over emphasized at least someone who you look up to or a guardian is needed, we may see people say that they did make it without a mentor but it’s all lies, someone gave them one time opportunity, someone opened the door of success for them. Someone looked at them and say let me help you in one way or the other that is the mentor the have not the mentor you go to apply to, some mentors are not just the once you ask to guard you but most time willing guard you.

This makes us successful with or without a mentor since independence is the key in making important decisions in learning. Although mentors help in making the learning process faster and reduce the fatal errors, it is the strength of being able to take responsibility in oneself. Mentor or self learning is just one of the tools but hard work forms the secret of success.

You don't find a mentor, you find your purpose, what you love doing that can be productive to you, or what you can do that can be productive and love doing it.

Trough the purpose you get a goal, by chasing the goal a mentor may come a mentor may not but that should not be you consern, focus on your self and on your goal.

Success is as a result of hard work, if you work smartly in this era you don't need anyone except your data and phone to succeed, success does not rotate around one person, we can be successful without mentorship.

Until you get into the journey you will then understand the need for a mentor, even though the word mentor is over emphasized at least someone who you look up to or a guardian is needed, we may see people say that they did make it without a mentor but it’s all lies, someone gave them one time opportunity, someone opened the door of success for them. Someone looked at them and say let me help you in one way or the other that is the mentor the have not the mentor you go to apply to, some mentors are not just the once you ask to guard you but most time willing guard you.

A mentor does not always have to be someone you formally approach or who officially takes you under their watch or care so many successful people had someone who guided them, gave them opportunity, gave them advice, or even created way for them in though moment. Whether we call them a mentor or helper, having someone who can provide direction and encouragement most especially someone who will impact you positively and want to seee you succeed actually makes life easier and help avoid mistakes in life.

No doubt, every successful person has a mentor. Without mentor we can't reached there where we want to go. So it's a truth that mentorship is necessary for every startup. For instance, when we grow up in childhood our parents are mentors that guide us the basic things of life that we follow in coming whole life. We can say them birth mentors or parents. Mark Zuckerberg is the Facebook founder, he is the great man and took guidelines from Steve jobs. If we want to be successful in life, we must have role model that we can follow him and become at his standard or level.

It is possible that some people made it in life without having a mentor, maybe yhe opportunity of getting a good mentor wasn't avaliable and the journey was not easy, because you will go through difficult phases and challenges which if their was a mentor it would have been easy for one. Those who have a mentor knows the benefits they get in having mentor,  it makes the journey smooth and easy . Their is maximum support in having a mentor, those who never had, they has terrible stories of even failing to start all over but this is a challenge that you may not face when you have a mentor, because of course you will be given orientation to prevent not to go through experience.

Yes. You've conveyed key points, making them simpler to understand. A mentor can help you pivot faster but they're not a substitute for your own efforts. Independence and skills are paramount for your development. Independence is the primary foundation for success, decision making and accountability leading to long term success. Having independence makes it easier to progress even without a mentor. However, relying solely on a mentor can lead to dependence in their absence you'll be confused about making decisions.

The ideal combination of both is still ideal. Aggressively learn independently while remaining open to mentors. Don't rely on them, as we should always listen to advice from successful and experienced people. The bottom line is, no matter what tools you use to learn about business or investment be they mentors, books or communities the ultimate decision maker in both business and investment is you.

A mentor is someone that gives a direction and guardiance to someone who's trying to start life or even a project. So you need the advice and experience of those who has actually gone before you and has succeeded in a field of endeavor. It's said that when you ask and learn from those who has gone before you you will not get lost, and that is what a mentor does to you. The role of a mentor can't be overemphasized as it's key in the shaping of any individual in his chosen career.

People want to be an officer they are going to the institute in which great mentors are available who are succeeded to make a person who are successful in their life . If you have a goal then you need a person but you have to do hard work to achieve goal because if you have no hunger to become a successful person you will lose your temperament and you will lose your everything in your life . Millions of people have a dream but they are not on the right path which is making them unsuccessful in their life. There are many teachers in the society and they are an educated person who are respected but they are not present in the field which is necessary to guide to the students of any field.

Looking at the definition of mentor I don't think having a mentor in decentralized investment is a wrong thing, but let it be your wish because a lot of newbies have lost huge amount of funds to some mentors that added their phone contact to their WhatsApp group or Facebook group, which is an easy place for scammers to operate easily and get away with the funds,  I will never forget my mentor in this field and may his gentle soul continue to rest in peace, despite how busy he was in the forum and other business he can respond to any challenges may be your challenge and he will provide solutions to your challenge.

The word mentor is more than just being a guidian that check every actions that we take to know if they are good enough or could end up with a repercussion. A metor should be an experience person beit business or teacher that lead based on experience and life exposure.
Every business man supposed to have a mentor and that is the only way we can continue growing in mindset and experience. We are bound to make mistakes and the only person that could get informed early about what the gravity of a single mistake could lead to is a mentor and it's compulsory for us to have one so we don't blindly make decisions that could come with circumstances.

Imo and AFAIK, mentorship can cause a lot of positive changes in the live of anyone who finds the right person to learn from. The paths of someone who goes through mentorship, are usually different from those who seek for experience/knowledge on their own, whether through books or any other means that doesn't involve direct mentorship. Unlike through mentorship where the experiences of someone else can easily guide you and make your journey smooth, independent learning can take longer time with repeated lessons from mistakes.

The beautiful thing is, in every journey, we all must choose one. The presence/availability of one does not invalidate the other. All that matters is that we achieve what we need to accomplish, and become a mentor to others if need be.
