Who are mentors? Mentors are those people who possess a great deal of experience and they offer that experience to the less experienced. In this way they act as their guidance, offering advice to them whenever it’s needed.If one is to succeed in life, they will need a mentor at one time of their life or the other. Mentors help us succeed in specific fields in life. If one wants to explore in something new, they will need guidance so as to enter in that new world in order to succeed. Mentors help us avoid wastage of time and resources when walking on a road that we have never walked before. They help a lot when one is being introduced to a new stage in life, for example marriage. Also, when building a career it is advisable to have a mentor to make the way simpler.The first question to ask ourselves is, when are these mentors needed? When one realizes that they have a dream that they want to come true, it would be advisable to look for a mentor. When one wants to achieve a specific goal, it would be advisable to get a mentor. When one doesn’t know how to reach a certain destination, all one has to do is to look for that one person who can hold their hand and guide them in the way they want to go in life.For someone to be your mentor they must have gone through the way that you are preparing to go through and succeeded or they are doing well in that specific area. They may have made mistakes, but have overcome those mistakes. They may have encountered obstacles but overcame them. A mentor doesn’t have to be a real person, they can be in form of books read, that has been written by a specific author that one would like to emulate. They can be in form of internet stuff or even media, for example listening to a CD or watching videos done by one’s mentors. That means that your mentor does not have to know that they are mentoring you. We have seen people who have gone far in life through watching videos of their mentors in YouTube.Mentors have to be part of our lives if we are to succeed in life. They will help us avoid wastage of time and resources. Since we will learn from their mistakes, then we won’t make the same mistakes they made. They will make our road smoother as they help us achieve the goals that we so much desire.If you want to be wise, walk with the wise. If you want to be rich walk with the rich. If you want to be successful in a specific field, walk with those who have succeeded in that area.
