If you want to get somewhere you should find yourself a mentor that has already done the things that you want to do. The fastest way to learn something is by modeling the success of others.
I’m not a professional, I’m just a guy who was exposed to this industry for quite a long time and knows what’s working and what not.
Here are the things you want to look after when you search for a mentor:
- That mentor has to resonate with you because if it doesn’t you may not even listen to what he’s saying. What I mean by this is that you need to have some type of connection from the beginning.
- That mentor should not only be good at what he’s teaching but he should also have a life style that you like, a life style that you want.
- Your mentor needs to know what he’s talking about. This is an obvious one, but back in the days when I started with self developing I had no idea who to listen to. They all looked like they know what they are talking about but a lot of them may be “scams”. The best way to make sure that those mentors are real is to read the testimonials about them and to search those people on facebook.
- You should not have only one mentor that teaches you about everything, you should have mentors for all three major categories: relationships, health and wealth.
- The best way to know who’s the best match for you is to check as much of them as possible. You can do that on youtube, I guess that all of them have a youtube channel or at least some clips uploaded by someone else.
- He needs to be honest and unapologetic. Why do I say this? Because if it’s ever getting to a point where he has to give you a feedback you need the truth, even if by doing that he rips you into shreds.
I guess those are all the things you need to look after when you want to choose a mentor.
“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”

Stay tuned for more awesome content. :D
Great advice on finding a mentor, I especially like your point about finding one with a lifestyle you want, makes sense! Thanks. P.s. also a really good Benjamin Franklin quote.

They don't necessarily have to be in real life. They can be online as well. Make sure you check Jeff Berwick's work, I think you will like his stuff.

I've never had a good mentor aside from family, perhaps i've been missing out all along. I wonder how hard it is to find one. Cheers

You should search for one. There are a lot of great guys on youtube. You don't even need to buy anything. It's all for free.

Great tips ! I myself am a mentor to some of my friends because I have spent so much time reading valuable information and used it to get results in specific areas of my life. But I have never had a mentor really and would like to find one sometime.

Thanks. That's great. You should find yourself a mentor. The output you get in that area of your life will be much higher if you have a mentor. :D

This is a great guide for people to refer to when finding a mentor. I definitely agree on the part you have to find someone who knows what they're doing or talking about. Competence is something I'd look for in a mentor.
That said, you have been upvoted and resteemed! Cheers!

I was watching Craig and Jerrybanfield, I was following Jerry on youtube he just came here and made over 100k$ I think in 1-2 months. I am trying to make some videos for steemit, but I am a little bit shy and my accent is not so good :D

I asked Craig if I can take an interview with him but he refused me. I think that Jerry made $18k in the first month or something like that. He has a free course about steemit, you should watch it, it may help you. It's pretty good. :D
