If you are the smartest person you know then you need to find some new friends! If you are the richest person you know then you need to find new friends. Everyone should have a mentor. That mentor should bring something to the table. By that I mean they should offer you something whether its coaching and teaching they should bring value.
A mentor should be interesting and interested in you. A mentor should help guide you too reach your goals and strive for more. A mentor should be there for you when you need to be told you are doing a good job or a bad job. A mentor should not have to motivate you, tell you what to do and how to do it. If you have a mentor in your life that means their time is valuable and should not be wasted. When you are around your mentor you should bring value to your encounters as well. Do not just show up to be mentored.
Things to look for in a mentor... experience, success, wisdom, educated, and has created a following of others who also believe they are succesful.
Mentors are not hard to find they are hard to slow down to have them coach you. So when you find a mentor ask yourself how you are helping them.

Take action
Today I want you to take action and defy the masses. Do something different that you would not normally do. Go skydiving, buy a Rolex, test drive your favorite vehicle, cut your hair. What ever it is you wanted to do just do it. If you are living your life the way other people want you to than today is your day to Take Action. I don't mean do anything illegal, but if you have a goal or a desire to do something than as the infamous Michael Jordan said, "Just Do It."
