Summary

Are you feeling overwhelmed with just how many gurus, mentors and trainers there are in the market? Discover today why having mentors is important, how to find the right mentor for you and how to spot a bad one. Listen in today to find out why investing in mentors is an investment in yourself and remember that you are your best asset.   KEY TAKEAWAYS There are many coaches, trainers and mentors that have got decades of experience so you can leverage the mistakes and the lessons that someone else has already blazed the trail of. It is far better to learn from the mistakes of others, so you don’t have to make them. When looking for a guru or mentor, you ideally would like them to have at least 10 years worth of experience. You also need to look at their connections within the industry as well as looking at what you personally would like to gain from a mentor. If you are getting to the point where you are feeling overwhelmed with how many gurus you are following, then you need to do a deep cleanse of your following list. It is far better to follow one person and listen to all of their content (both free and paid) than it is to follow ten people, and listen to all their free content. Accountability comes from investment. If you are using free content readily available on Google (blog posts etc) you will miss out on key information such as the person's individual unique skills and interpretations, that comes from learning through a person or through a course. It is your responsibility to find the good Gurus and not to let those who are not practising ethically put you off. Watch how these people treat others on social media, do they want to help others? Are they personal? Be mindful that if they have a large following there is bound to be some criticism but make sure you do thorough research on who to invest your time in.   BEST MOMENTS “You can stand on the shoulders of giants.” “They need to be able to teach as well as do.” “It is never about the guru or trainer it is always about you.” “You are your best asset, invest in yourself wisely.”   [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
