How Mentors Can Help You as a Coach - Even from a Distance

Mentoring happens on accident and on purpose and being a mentor can be as rewarding as for someone who is being mentored. In this episode, my associate producer and I talk about the many ways you can be mentored on purpose and even by accident. When I was younger, I thought that people grow up and whatever happens kind of happens. I really didn’t think you had a choice in your future. If you were born poor, you’d always be poor. If you were born into a rich family, you’d always be rich.  Cause that's your lot in life; your normal. And I didn't realize how much you could change what your normal is by changing your focus or input. As an adult, I had a mentor who changed how I thought. He really focused on asking what's your vision for your life? Your vision is your future. Having this mentor, in this case my pastor, really gave me new ways to think about what you put in your eyes goes into your brain and into your subconscious, which becomes your expectations, and changes your future. We walk like our mentors, we talk like our mentors.  Pick mentors based on the fruit of their life.Mentoring remotely or in person, over time.Examples of volunteer organizations and mentoring structure.Don't be afraid to ask for virtual coffee, once or multiple times to learn from others.Discover how to change your future by making some of the same decisions successful people make and focusing on what you can take responsibility for.Benefit from the habits of others.  Step by step, new input will bring new output.
