I would like to discuss this here to understand how many people decide to take this step to find a mentor?
I asked myself this question because in almost every book or interview with successful people I come across a mention of them having, or even currently having a mentor who guides them, helps them develop, and perhaps points out mistakes that will not allow them to grow.
And I was interested in how many of you at some point decided that you needed a mentor, how difficult it was to find one and how did he help you? I suppose that few people use this, maybe even out of fear, because for example I don’t even know who it could be and how can I ask my future mentor about this if I manage to find such a person.
And maybe some of you have been a mentor for other people? Share your experience too, if it is not too much trouble for you.
I agree that you don't always need a mentor to achieve success.
But at the same time, I agree that you need a person from the outside who could take an independent look at the business/idea and evaluate it from their point of view. Also, such a person from the outside should have their own experience, from which they can comment, and not just say smart words.
