Mentors

In today’s world, anyone with a keyboard has a platform to fulminate about whatever is on their mind to thousands of people online. Credibility does not factor into their access or their influence. Everyone has unprecedented power without having to accept the encumbrance of responsibility. 

I am blessed to have many mentors in my life. Each has helped me become the person I am today. The best thing I have learned from all of them is that mentors can be found everywhere if you’re always open to new ideas and opportunities. Some of the best lessons I have learned have come from unexpected sources.

The Buddha has said “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.” However if you are not humble, ready or not, you may not notice the teacher standing right in front of you.

“All streams flow to the sea because it is lower than they are. Humility gives it is power.” - Lao Tzu
