What are The Common Pitfalls With Mentoring for Free?
So why is mentoring for free the best thing you can do right now? After all, we are all pressed for time. Why take on another project at all?What if I told you that you would be saving time? Not only that but mentoring is a great way to help others and feel fulfilled again (something that we tend to miss out on even though we make more money.)
You'll also:
- Learn something faster
- Benefit from the law of reciprocity
- Build your own solid mastermind group simply by mentoring for free!
Let me show you how using this powerful form of leverage can improve the quality of your life.
Learn Something Faster!
When you're learning something you're changing more than just your behavior. You're also deepening the lesson in your mind. "Deepening the lesson?"
You see, when you're learning something new you're changing how you think about life in general. When you're teaching something new you're forcing that knowledge to make sense to you first!
It has to click in your mind first before you an communicate it to someone else - let alone 'teach it'. Make sense? ;-)
So when you're mentoring for free you're making more sense out of whatever it is that you're teaching about. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to teach it!
Want more proof? Read about something - anything! Okay? Now tell someone about what you just read - anyone! Notice a difference?
The second way makes learning more pro-active. You had to put in some work for the new knowledge to make sense!
So take advantage of this! Find something you want to learn (how to be wealthy, healthy, etc...) and teach it to someone - start mentoring for free!
Empower Yourself With The Law of Reciprocity!
Wouldn't mind some free mentoring for yourself? Well, how about starting fresh and changing that by mentoring for free first!
It's not just about law of reciprocity (i.e. you get what you give.) You also get to select the kind of people you'd want to mentor. You can also barter!
In Korea where I live, I offer free tutoring and in exchange I get free tutoring in Korean (a tough language to learn!) I also get to pick the people I want to mentor. This gives me the chance to build the ultimate form of support leverage!
Build a Reliable Mastermind Group!
The best reward you get from mentoring for free a chance to build and influence a tight-nit group of people who think on the same wavelength as you do!
These are people that you will know and respect and vice-versa. With their different perspectives they can solve your problems in ways that you've never thought of!
Not only that but they will be eager to you help you because you helped them by mentoring for free (law of reciprocity again.) This is a great way to build long-lasting and fulfilling relationships.
My Conclusion to Free Mentoring
So what do you want to learn? How can you be a mentor in that field? You don't have to be a genius. Sometimes just having passion for it and teaching yourself first is enough to make people want to learn from you.
Just be sure to have your heart in the right place. You see, when you're a mentor you are someone that person trusts and even depends on. So with that in mind, enjoy the benefits of free tutoring!
Speaking of which, if you want some free mentoring then take advantage of our own personal development coach and get some fresh insight into your problem! Who knows? You might just end up saying "Now why didn't I think of this? ;-)
