Mentor Club: Why I Needed a Mentor!

We are all motivated and excited to get started with something new.  But what happens after that excitement goes away?  Can you still stay on track?

We ALL need an accountability partner, mentor or someone to keep us from getting distracted from all the bright and shiny objects or to just be there when we are in over our heads.

At the time, I still thought “I can do this on my own” but I scheduled a free call with a mentor anyway and that 30-minute call was a game changer.  During that call I finally asked for help.  I am here to say is it OK to ask for help.  There are others who have already made mistakes and recovered to tell their story.

Before starting with a Mentor I never had someone to bounce ideas off of, make me think more thoroughly about a problem, and simply call me out on my crap.

Yes, it has been a lot of work.  Most things that are worth it in the end are a lot of work.  Without a Mentor, we would not be where we are today.

It’s okay to ask for help.  It’s okay to make mistakes- I’ve made more than my fair share.  A mentor is there to give you a new perspective and help you get to your perfect day.

Keep up the good work, Tekkies.
