  2. Everyone wants to be successful, but most miss one of the critical ingredients for it. You see, the path towards success can be full of challenges, with twists and turns, so it is good to have someone who can guide you in your journey. The someone I have mentioned here is a mentor, who has gained valuable experience walking a similar path and whose expertise can speed up the progress towards your goal.

  3. Benefits of having a mentor 1) Mentors can give better insights into your goals Your mentor would have experienced many failures while walking his path, and so he would have found creative solutions for such shortcomings. With their guidance, you can take shortcuts evading these failures. Moreover, they can help you get a better picture of your end goals. 2) Third-party Perspective At times, mentors play the role of devil’s advocate revealing different perspectives that you might not have thought. Suggestions or opinions shared will be based on only facts without giving priority to your emotions. This type of feedback helps you to improve and not make some of the easily avoidable mistakes.

  4. 3) Identify the lagging points Mentors can quickly identify what you lack in order to reach your end goal. They can provide you training, or point you towards the solution. 4) Keeps you motivated Mentors will be an inspiration as they are the living example to show you that your dreams are achievable. They can understand your struggles more than anyone else and can give you emotional support.

  5. 5) Networking Mentors will have better networking and contacts, and they can introduce you to those contact. Having reliable connections is essentials to be successful. 6) Identify the opportunities and pain points Mentors can identify the opportunities and also help to address the pain points. They will have an array of experiences that you can leverage. These are the Benefits of having a mentor

  6. Misconceptions about Mentorship • Anyone successful can be a mentor • Expecting mentors to babysit and guide you in a step by step process • Mentorship is mentor-driven Mentorship does not work in these modes. The Mentor mentee relationship is different from the trainer trainee model. It should be a voluntary activity both from the mentor and mentee perspective, and most importantly, it should be mentee driven.

  7. The prerequisite as a mentee • Research about Mentor • Choose the right mentor and believe in them • Be clear about what you want to achieve. Don’t expect your mentor to sort it out for you • Be ready to accept the changes • Accept the fact that your mentor is more knowledgeable than you • Be ready to follow instructions • Be coachable: Do your part and equip yourself with the required skills. Mentors will not start from scratch

  8. How to Identify a Mentor 1) Like Attracts Like Identify someone who has already achieved your pursuing dream and have similarity with you. It will help build a cordial relationship between both parties. If the puzzle is correctly placed mentor can see himself in you at various stages 2) Easily Approachable Identify someone approachable and willing to support you. Preferably mentors should be from the same geography.

  9. 3) Give and Take Every relation works on give and take policy. What can you do in return to mentor for his advice and guidance? It would be great if you could do some service in return. 4) Ask your mentor Ask the person if they are okay to mentor you. Time is the most valuable resource, so be mindful when you are requesting their time for you. Make full use of the allotted time by preparing relevant questions, and it also helps to prove that you are serious.

  10. Conclusion The mentor may not be a mandate to achieve success, but it can make your life easier if you chose the right mentor. At any point in time, if you feel that it is no working for you, you may drop it and look for other better mentors.
