How to Get the Most Out of Any Mentor or Coach

Your content is so valuable to watch. How would I go about finding a mentor to help me on my path? >> Well, I think we can delineate a couple things. So, first is there are people who give you information. So, think about the sources of truth or sources of information. All that stuff's readily available on the internet for free. I think what you're asking for is someone who can give you feedback. Right? So, someone who can train you in some way, either one to many or one-on-one. Um that basically you can take an action and they can say, "Change this. Try it again." Um and there's a lot of different ways you can do that. You can hire vendors for that. You can hire What I mean, a vendor or mentor, whatever you want to call it. Uh there's coaches for that. There's sales coaches. There's, you know, insurance sales coaches. There's Like, I'm a big advocate of getting training. Like, I'm an advocate of trying to hire an expert who is good at the thing to give me feedback so that I can shorten my curve to get to where I want to go. Um and I think there's like there's a couple perspectives on this, which is that people I think some people with egos hate the idea that they want to pay for help. I think that's silly. Um but that's up to you. Uh I don't want to have to figure everything out. I would happily take the answers from someone else. Like, this is not school. You can pay someone for the answers to the test and then just take the test and ace it. And so, I like that. Um the other perspective um is that sometimes you pay someone and you didn't get what you wanted out of it. And there's probably three core problems that could have happened from that. So, number one is they promised something that was too big, right? That's on them. Uh the second is that you did not do the work. Right? So, that's on you. Or you had unrealistic expectations that were independent of their promises. And so, in either of these scenarios, you're going to be dissatisfied. And so, I would say that when I pay anyone for help, I always make it my objective to make sure that it is not my fault. And so, I do that by promising the person and I say it is like I will be your best student. That because there there is no way like I will follow this to the T and I will do more just in case. Because I want to rule out any possibility of failure on me and I will expect nothing. And so, when you when you approach education that way, the likelihood of success is really high. And I would say that I've been probably the number one student in anything that I've paid for, which is a pretty bold claim, but I think it's true. And the approach that I've had is just absolute violence. Um is that I will I will be religious in my adherence to the steps that they outlined.
