Why You Need a Career Mentor

Have you heard these before?

YOU have to work for something you really want.   
YOU can build your life into what you want it to be. 
YOU can do anything you put your mind to. 

There are countless sayings and expressions that remind us of the importance of taking personal responsibility for your own life.  Yet, the research in my book, Own Your Zone, revealed that most highly successful people, who love their work, typically have or have had a mentor. Figuring out on your own the career that will enable you to successfully live your own best life is doable for a select few.   However, it is more likely that you may be one of the over 70% that needs to take the self-responsibility step of finding a mentor to help guide you toward your own path to career success and personal satisfaction. 

I suggest you own the following mantra: 

“I Am Not Stopping Until I Figure Out What I Am Meant To Do and Then I’m Going To Make it Happen!”  

You may very well need a mentor to help you find the career that is uniquely right for you and to lead you on the road to find and secure that career. I suggest you get the right support. Starting is easier than you may think. Check us out on Facebook or Twitter! Visit our website at www.onetruezone.com!
