Its not just an option or a sidelight for a leader to find a mentor and be a mentor, finding and being a mentor is an essential component of peak performance. A speaker spoke about Relationships in a conference I attended last year which made a big difference in my own life. He said: "Relationships greatly influence your life's flight path, some are seasonal and some lifelong. The premium fuel to succeed in life is by entering and developing premium lifelong relationships, and we need to work hard for that. I suggest you must be intentional about finding inspiring people; Find someone who is already at the next level where you want to reach. Just in the presence of these premium people your life will improve. A place where you can give and not just take would be the best way to look at Relationships; Look out for opportunities where you can add value to the lives of premium people, don't just take from them. Expect flaws in high level people. Quit looking for the perfect person to find as a mentor. High level people have idiosyncrasies and faults just like anyone else and, they will fail to meet your expectations. What makes high level people successful is because they succeeded in spite of their faults and not by absence of them. When you discover your hero has faults, be encouraged because you can also become a high level person even with your faults" Your growing upline can be the one to mentor you. In order to establish trust to build a lifelong relationship, you have to work hard at it. Communication is the Bed rock of any relationship and, therefore communicate with them regularly. Since it adds value to give, always leave more behind that you take from that relationship. You should ask yourself these questions: 1. Do you have a mentor (a trusted teacher)? 2. If not, why? Why have you not established a relationship with your mentor? 3. Do you stay in communication with your mentor and ask questions to find the answers? Every question has an answer. 4. Has a master mind alliance been established to find solutions to your problems? 5. Do you have an accountability relationship with your mentor? 6. Are you honest with your mentor or, do you twist or embellish your real situation to get the answer you are looking for? We pray and hope that you achieve all the goals you set in life.
