How should I choose a mentor?
"Having a mentor accelerates your growth."
"If you're starting a business, learning from someone is the shortcut."
You hear those phrases often, don't you?
But in reality,
"I don't know who to choose."
"Is it really okay to follow this person?"
Don't you ever feel lost like that?
For those people,
this article introduces criteria for choosing a mentor.
✅ If you're unsure about choosing a mentor, imagine your "self in 3 years"
When that happens, I recommend
using your "ideal self in 3 years" as a benchmark.
There are four points you should look at when choosing a mentor:
✅ Track record
✅ Way of life
✅ Way of thinking
✅ Way of working
When you look at those,
whether you can think, "I want to be like this in 3 years"
becomes one of your judgment criteria.
✅ Why "3 years"? The reason for the perfect sense of distance
Six months from now is too close to your current situation, making it hard to visualize.
Ten years from now is too far away to feel realistic.
In that sense, 3 years from now is
a future that feels just right, one that seems achievable.
It's a period that you can imagine without strain,
that acts as a trigger for action,
and that allows you to believe in your own potential.
That is precisely why I recommend choosing someone
who is close to your ideal image for 3 years from now as your mentor.
✅ Life changes significantly based on "who you interact with"
Your choice of words, your values, the speed of your actions...
Everything changes based on who you interact with daily.
A mentor is not just a provider of knowledge or know-how,
but someone who influences how you will be in the future.
That is why
you should look beyond temporary achievements or fame,
and choose by looking at the person's way of being.
✅ Summary: Let's envision your ideal self in 3 years
When you are unsure about a mentor,
please start by imagining your own future.
How do you want to be working in three years?
What kind of people do you want to be involved with?
How do you want to feel at the end of the day?
What kind of contributions do you want to be making?
Someone who is living a future close to that answer
will be the best mentor for you.✨
