I’ve spoken to over 50 founders and CEOs. Here’s the advice they wish they knew at 21:

[PART 3/7]

💡 Find mentors, but don’t be committed to just one.

My thoughts below:

Obviously I’ve had lots of mentors. They’ve bolstered my career, helped me grow, and were the light at the end of the tunnel at times. Many mentors later, I still try to have 3 at any given time.

Mentors help you grow. They teach you the insider information you won’t find on any blog. It’s a superpower in of itself.

However, people (especially students) get trapped into idolizing a single mentor (i.e. a successful CEO). This sucks because you only will ever hear one perspective on a problem.

Having multiple mentors gives you access to more perspectives and more times to schedule! Not only that, but you get exposed to their networks (which are often expansive).
