Have you ever received advice that has prevented you from making a mistake, or saved you time and/or money?
Have you ever been stuck in a situation and upon reflection, wished you had asked for help?
This book is about how a series of life events, and the corresponding lessons, have all led to the same outcome, the importance of mentorship.
Mentorship is a relationship in which a more experienced or more knowledgeable person helps to guide a less experienced or less knowledgeable person. The mentor may be older or younger than the person being mentored. Oprah Winfrey was quoted as saying this "A mentor is someone who allows you to see hope inside yourself"
Some people realize that having a mentor in their life is important. Others don't, prior to January 2011, I was one of them.
People with no idea on where their life is going and don't have help, get a road-block in their lives, a slap in the back of the head, metaphorically speaking, and I was certainly that person. I'll tell you why shortly.
Throughout the book, I will share stories of my own life. I will call on some experts to back up my findings and ideas.
I have practical checklists at the end of each chapter to demonstrate how a mentor can help you discover and work towards a 10/10 lifestyle. (An awesome life that will be different for every individual but discovered and enhanced with the help of a Mentor).
A large portion of the general population have at some stage been "Stuck" in their lives. They have had what I refer to as the "White Knuckle" syndrome.
The aim of this book is to bring awareness to this "White Knuckle" syndrome and help people get out of a possible Rut. My ultimate purpose it to also bring awareness to the importance of a mentor who can help you become free of your pain and live your own 10/10 balanced lifestyle.
