Teaching is a creative profession, not a delivery system. Great teachers do [pass on information], but what great teachers also do is mentor, stimulate, provoke, engage.
Getting a mentor is the shortcut to success.
A mentor empowers a person to see a possible future, and believe it can be obtained.
The difference in a teacher and a mentor is that a mentor is interested in our soul.
A successful mentor is proud of his mentees, knowing that he has given a part of himself in their success.
I remember saying to my mentor, ‘If I had more money, I would have a better plan.’ He quickly responded, ‘I would suggest that if you had a better plan, you would have more money.’ You see, it’s not the amount that counts; it’s the plan that counts.
Most busy people want to mentor someone great.
Every 70-year-old needs a young person in their lives to mentor, and every 20-year-old needs a senior.
My mentor. . . showed me that, when things go sideways, blame has no place in the room.
I think a mentor gets a lot of satisfaction in a couple of ways. They’re doing something constructive, so they feel good about that. And when they see the results of this, with the young people they’re working with, it’s very, very rewarding.
A real friend or mentor isn’t on your payroll.
Once you embrace the absolute truth that every leader needs a mentor, you can begin to achieve the massive growth and success that you seek.
My most valued mentor. . . taught me that failing didn’t equate to failure, it just meant you had another shot at getting it right.
I’ll be a mentor to those who want to create a business, product or service and aren’t exactly sure how to do that. To me, it’s a true sign of success if I can help someone have a better time of it.
Think for yourself. Unplug yourself from follow-the-follower groupthink, and virtually ignore what everyone else in your industry is saying (except the ones everyone agrees is crazy). Do your own research, draw your own conclusions, set your own course, and stick to your guns. When you’re just starting out, people will tell you you’re wrong. After you’ve blown past them, they’ll tell you you’re crazy. A few years after that, they’ll (privately) ask you to mentor them.
My father was clearly a mentor. He told me if you work 10 years and you worked 40 hours a week, then you had 10 years experience. But if you worked 10 years and you worked 60 hours a week, then you had 15 years’ experience.
Engage, educate, equip, encourage, empower, energize, and elevate. Those are the methods for maximizing the potential of any individual, team, organization, or institution for ultimate success and significance. Those are the methods of a mentor leader.
My mentor said, ‘Let’s go do it,’ not ‘You go do it.’
Shortly after I met my mentor he asked me, ‘Mr. Rohn, how much money have you saved and invested over the last six years?’ And I said, ‘None.’ He then asked, ‘Who sold you on that plan?’
A mentor long departed told me that the greatest gift in political life, in any life, is to view yourself objectively, at arm’s length, to make an assessment of yourself. So whom do I rely on? I rely on myself.
What is desired is that the teacher ceased being a lecturer, satisfied with transmitting ready-made solutions. His role should rather be that of a mentor stimulating initiative and research.
Men, if you are in a position of power or authority, please respectfully continue to mentor and work with talented individuals and those with promise, regardless if they are men or women.
Influence others positively by being a teacher, coach, counselor, or mentor.
The best way a mentor can prepare another leader is to expose him or her to other great people.
The number one piece of advice I would share is to recruit a mentor. Find someone you admire who is at least one generation older, and has no direct authority over you. Lack of context and perspective can cost you months and years–with a bad career choice, an unwise relocation, short-term negotiating posture, and, generally speaking, sophomoric thinking.
But I get a thrill out of bringing a group together and helping them reach a place they didn’t know they could go. I see myself as a mentor now and I’m excited to lead some of these talented young guys.
Ultimately, even if you follow the advice of a mentor or board member, it’s still your fault if they were wrong!
Get a millionaire mentor. Most of us were brought up middle class or poor and then hold ourselves to the limits and ideas of that group. I have been studying millionaires to duplicate what they did. Get your own personal millionaire mentor and study them. Most rich people are extremely generous with their knowledge and their resources.
Whenever I mentor people and help them discover their purpose, I always encourage them to start the process by discovering their strengths, not exploring their shortcomings. Why? Because people’s purpose in life is always connected to their giftedness. It always works that way. You are not called to do something that you have no talent for. You will discover your purpose by finding and remaining in your strength zone.
I never tell students they cannot read a book they pick up, but I do guide them toward books that I think would be a good fit for them. I think of myself as a reading mentor-a reader who can help them find books they might like.
Sheryl Sandberg was a mentor and a champion for me, and she saw something in me that I didn’t see in myself.
A leader or mentor gives credit to others when things go right, and accepts the blame when things go wrong.
Our true mentor in life is science.
A mentor is someone who sees more talent and ability within you, than you see in yourself, and helps bring it out of you.
I think a role model is a mentor – someone you see on a daily basis, and you learn from them.
A mentor must always guide, never push. It was my job to listen to them, offer my perspective, and encourage them to pursue the ideals they believed to be true.
Don’t wait for an employer, friend, or mentor to show appreciation for your work. Take pride in your own efforts on a daily basis.
Conscience, as a mentor, the guide and compass of every act, leads ever to happiness. When the individual can stay alone with his or her conscience and get its approval, without knowing force or specious knowledge, then he or she begins to know what real happiness is.
The fun thing about getting older is finding younger people to mentor.
A book is a garden, an orchard, a storehouse, a party, a mentor, a teacher, a guidepost, a counsellor.
