Mirroring Your Mentor’s Success

Copying or mirroring is a very powerful tool that many successful people have used to reach where they are today. There is nothing wrong in copying your mentor as this will enable you to acquire a mindset and attitude to achieve success. Copying does not mean losing your own identity. It simply means emulating what works.

Look at your mentor’s traits, style and abilities that you would like to acquire in order to be successful in business. Thing about what you admire about your mentor and why. When my mentor first began working with me what I most admired was his calmness and ability to stay positive in virtually any situation. By noticing this and having the desire to have a more peaceful and positive life, I took notice of what he did and bit by bit made the necessary changes in my life to achieve my goals.

When in a difficult situation a very powerful exercise is to imagine what your mentor would do in any given situation.

This is a very powerful exercise and is used by many to achieve not just success in business but also in personal life.

In order to be successful in business and life, you have to acquire certain characteristics and unlearn certain behaviors.

A note before ending, no business can be successful without a good product, excellent marketing strategy and outstanding customer relationship. You can learn all you want from your mentor but without these three things, business success will not come easy, if at all.

Re: Business Coaching Resources - You're fortunate when you can find a Business Coach who has experience beyond where you've been and even where you are going. When your budget is slim and even after, it's good to have a mentor. Several of various backgrounds are very useful. They can be teachers, professors, pastors, business people, family members, bosses and former bosses. You have to be clear on what you want and what you desire to achieve, be able to convey it as simply as possible. Stop and listen and don't over tax their time. You should always expect results whether from a Business Coach or Mentors. If you're not gtting results, you're either not focused or you need to upgrade the quality of your mentors/coaches. Always surround yourself by people smarter than you.

Re: Success - I study success intently, and would like to share: Here's two excellent and nearly identical success-formulas from a couple of the world's masters. FIRST FORMULA: 1. Passionate Desire 2. Clear, Definite Purpose 3. Committed Decision 4. Take Action In Faith (Bonus Secret Sauce: 5. Repeat Consistently) I made a video about this, but am not allowed to link it yet. Google "Ryze Success Steps" for it. Oh, and this is Napoleon Hill's (Master Of Success Laws)'s Formula. SECOND FORMULA: 1. Passionate Desire 2. Understand It Is Already Done (Faith) 3. Relax & Allow It To Unfold (Go about your life calmly) This one is courtesy of Abraham-Hicks (inspiration for the movie The Secret). Hope that helps!
