Find a mentor

"A good mentor gets personal satisfaction from helping others to learn and grow," Barbara wrote in her report. "They can be compared to a good teacher."

I believe everyone in life should have a mentor - someone around 20 years older than oneself. I have been blessed to be able to regularly tap into the wisdom of the late Lau Kong Beng, Charlie Goh, Steve Ong, Christo Diamandopoulos. I cannot think of anything I have done in my earlier days with first consulting one of them (and there are many things I haven't done because I heeded one of their advice). It helps to talk with someone who has already traveled the pathway of the journey before me.
