Compliments are not in the deal

An excellent athlete, entrepreneur, or investor must look for an awesome mentor. This is because they always reach for the stars. When looking for a mentor, don’t expect to have someone that will rain you with compliments. Rather, look for someone who are willing to provide you constructive criticisms.

Never ignore you

A good mentor helps his mentee by providing him with continuous constructive responses and feedbacks.

Brace yourself, shittiest critics are coming

To be a tough entrepreneur, you need a mentor who is willing to tell the truth though it hurts. It’s the only way to success. Elon Musk even suggested us to be a critic addict. Don’t be a sissy.

Build a harmonious relations with your mentor

Build a good communication, learn to listen, and have empathy.
