The Power of a Mentor
Having mentors opened the door for me to move from a clear path toward poverty to the life I get to enjoy today. Your direction is not based on luck, family tradition, the economy or the company – unless you allow it to be. You can choose mentors that will guide you to any success you want if you follow these 5 steps.

Hi this is Dan Miller – and yes you’re listening to the 48 Days Radio show – where each week we take 48 minutes to dive into real life questions about finding your passion, deciding what kind of life you want to live – and then finding or creating work that allows you to show up every day, excited to be able to do something that is meaningful, fulfilling – and profitable. This is where normal, indecision and ambiguity come to die. Welcome to the 48 Days Radio Show.
Thank you for being a listener of this podcast. I love hearing from you and being allowed to think through the questions we all have about finding or creating work that matters, for people who care.

This is exactly how you look for a mentor and how you work with one.Quotation:
