Throughout the years, I've had a few mentors whom I've
admired on different levels. Some have mentored me spiritually, some
personally, and others in business. A
mentor doesn't have to be older than you, but just willing and able to teach
you something you don't know. But it's more than teaching too. Sometimes it's
just a matter of being a cheerleader of sorts. A mentorship is sometimes a
two-way street. One where you're learning and teaching, or even just pushing
each other to greater heights of knowledge and achievement, or courage and
commitment.
I currently have a mentorship with a driven, young guy who
has been pushing me to pursue the things I want to pursue and to use the
knowledge I already have. And he's been learning from me as I share the
knowledge I've gained from my life experiences.
I think everyone needs a mentor, and everyone should be a
mentor. we have a responsibility to pass on the lessons we've learned, and the
knowledge we've gained, to others.
Thank you, to my many mentors over the years!
