I must be blessed, I have mentors in my professional life and in my personal life and my social life. I’ve tried to follow their lead but I’m not sure I’m always successful.
To be honest with myself. to be a researcher. It’s difficult to say in one word. I can’t say in one slogan. Just general outlook on life. I guess second mentor could be Nikolai Berdyaev. Third could be Voltaire. It’s just an aesthetic worldview. You know in one sherlock holmes’ book there was a preface with words: Holmes was an aesthete. I thought it was an interesting idea. I am not a Sherlock just want to say. Those guys gave me chance to look at things and at myself at special angle of view.

This is so powerful. I believe that being a researcher that tries to discover the own self can allow us to view things from different angles.
I have multiple mentors. One of them is Elon Musk for the determination he has and also for having the balls to do things other people don’t even wanna try. Another mentor is Jordan Peterson because of how great and specific his speeches are. I just bought his book 12 Rules for Life and I can’t wait to read it. I also try to learn as much as I can from J. K. Rowling because she is one of the top writers out there and since I want to be a writer too, I believe I have things to learn from her. I guess I can find a few more if I search 😀

I find mentors in different people for different positive attributes
Stephen King. If you look back over his older stuff, you can see the proof that the practice of writing improves your craft.

I have had several mentors throughout my life. A few were my great teachers when I was in high school a million years ago. But as I gained experience in my career I had the good fortune of having great role models and mentors. One of them was the chairperson for the English department. He is a special soul and taught me so many of life’s valuable lessons. We correspond and talk on the phone every so often. Now in his 90’s he is still going strong and always offers me great advice when I need it.
I love these questions posts. Hmmmmm. 🤔 as cheesy and mommas boy as it sounds I would have to say my mom. She’s a nurse and she’s a hard worker and loves her job. She’s always been there for me and has loved me unconditionally. She is my mentor, friend and mother. And i am blessed.
I don’t have a mentor.
You don’t want one or you just didn’t find the right person yet?

Constant trying is the path 🙂
Jesus is my mentor. Also, my dear friend, Ron, is my mentor. My sons are my heroes. ❤️❤️❤️ Hugs, Tamara
Awesome list! 😀
Awe, thank you 🙂
May be Michel de Montaigne. But I don’t see him often. It just happened to me he could be one.
What’s the most important thing you’ve learned from him so far?

Don’t want one nor do i need one.
How come?
I don’t know, i don’t want to like be influenced by anything but me? Does that makes sense?
It does. 🙂
I never had the right mentor. Most of them are… Wrong people.
Is there anyone you admire?
Not really. 🙁 I had a tough life.
So you can be a mentor. 🙂
I guess my mom
Our parents are the first mentors we have.
I agree especially if they’ve positively impacted us
My father was always a good mentor.
That’s nice. What’s the most important thing you’ve learned from him?
My Pastor’s wife and my godmother.
That’s great!

That is one of the things I also try to do. Learn the best from anyone.
I have a few professors who’ve mentored me throughout my life. I need one for writing.
Who do you think it would be a great mentor for writing?
Stephen King. If you look back over his older stuff, you can see the proof that the practice of writing improves your craft.

He seems to be an amazing person!
Yes he is. God bless him. Thanks for your comment.
My pleasure!
: Facebook ads for self help. Authors of self help books. People who write articles on the internet. YouTubers sometimes have great ideas, too.
Great list! I’m learning a lot from YouTubers. They can have great insights about things.

She seems to be an awesome mother! 😀
She is quite extraordinary!
Life itself.. My inner voice
It’s awesome if you try to learn as much as you can from life.
yes
Nature.
What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned from it?
I dunno.. all seem same.. hard to decide. But yea..adopt the pace of nature.. patience 😄
