When I started my journey of entrepreneurship last year, I was confident and adamant that I could do it all alone.
It didn't take long to realise that I knew absolutely nothing + that starting from the bottom is very challenging, lonely + difficult when alone.
I realised at this point that in order to actually learn + grow, I needed mentors in my life help me.
And ever since January 2023, I've spent over $15,000 in mentors, and networking groups and here's what it made me realise:
- A mentor is a way to fast track your growth as they help you avoid mistakes you would have made by yourself.
2. A mentor provides you with a clear blueprint and path in order to succeed as they several steps ahead of you on your journey, and more likely than not, have experienced what you are going through.
3. The investment in a mentor allows you to expand your own network, and foster new + invaluable connections. You never know, you may start a business with your mentor over time.
4. Infinite return on investment. That $15,000 has returned in excess of $150,000 in the span of 15 months not to mention the skills developed + mindset shifts for the better!
The best thing you can invest into is yourself, and one of the best ways to to do is by finding a mentor!
