3 Specific Reasons Indicating Why You Need Mentors To Succeed
Mentors are individuals who help others up-comers in certain areas of life. There are mentors in every industry — even for personal development. You don’t have to be alone on any journey. Not only that, mentors serve as a community of support to advise and assist you in your decision-making.
In other words, these individuals point you in the right direction when you’re stuck.
You might never think of it that way, but let’s just say we don’t know everything, and we can’t do everything by ourselves.
3 reasons why we should have mentors?
- Offer needed and critical Advice: we all need some wise words to help us in the quest to reach our ultimate purpose. On the road to our destination, there will be doubts, impatience, challenges and other hindrances. A mentor can provide that, for this, you would have to be open to your mentor and reach out as need be.
- Provide Pointers for growth: Even when I know my plans are on point, sometimes I still reach out to my mentors for final thoughts. Not that I am diminishing my works and I don’t believe in myself. But this might help me to discover some pointers of corrections to refine my works.
- Facilitate ongoing learning: mentors tend to have extensive knowledge and experience in areas that we do not have, hence the reason why we seek for mentors in the first place. So why not ask them to help or teach us in things that we need to know. Don’t be afraid to ask, especially when they offer their expertise to you.
We all need others’ support to help us grow in areas we have lacked. Thus, continuing guidance is critical in the process. Find the right support system today. Find the right mentors to help you along the way. “Let the wise hear and increase in learning and the one who understands obtain guidance” Proverbs 1:5.
Would you find a mentor today? Not just anyone though. Put some thought into this and find the right person to be your mentor. Just reach out.
