Are you looking for a mentor or trying to find your destiny? You have to follow what my mentor Allan Nation just wrote about in his most recent article...
Great advice Tai. I actually did what you mentioned. I got my foot in the door at a hospital. Eventually I realized it really wasn't for me. Saved me tons of money before investing it in a Masters program. Anyone else care to share their experience?

I'm working at a cricket ground. I have a mentor. he's teaching me all he knows about hospitality. life lessons to. I get called mini me all the time because I'm striding to be like him. or get called twin. or his Un born son etc etc. in my own way I'm alike him.. but with a twist. I will be the best there is. I promise. not to you but to my self. like tai said. if everything you touch turns to gold. you will be rich. now every time a customer leaves my hospitality suite I make sure they know my name. when I set up my suite I make it perfect. or as close as I can. like my mentor says 99% of people won't notice the effort and detail you do to make your room look like this. but the one % that does is the people you want to impress. so if that means make sure my table cloth is level all the way. I eill do everything I can to do that. today a cloth took me 25 minutes. people call me slow at it. honestly I don't care.yhe 1% that will notice that is who I care. I could go on but your probably getting bored. I had a bad upbringing to.not terrible as others but not good. witch made me who I am. before I go. how old do you think I am

This is good advice. I worked in the tv/film industry doing audio post production in hollywood a few years back and my first job i offered to do sound design on the first episode for free, and if the director liked my work, then we could talk about working together in the future. Sure enough, I was hired after him hearing my work. Gotta give to receive!

I work 24/7 on my university degree and I kept listening to calming electronica on The Sound You Need. The advert of you with the car and the book shelf in the garage kept popping up and my first thoughts were "Oh here we go, another scam-artist." I've been involved in network marketing before and that has led me to become weary about rags to riches stories and buzz words. However, your videos are EXTREMELY insightful and I spent the entire day listening to them and have even bought a few of your recommended books. I just want to say thanks a whole bunch!

People accept "No" too easy... "No" is the catch all "gate-keeper" phrase to turn away time wasters. People are too interested in hand outs rather than seeking, what I call "Contributory rewards"... If you are willing to contribute more to society and make sacrifices, your will be rewarded for the value of that contribution. Staying hungry, for success is the only thing that will give you the motivation to be diligent so you can contribute 10x more than the average person. In other words, if your efforts cannot be distinctly different, in value, to what the average person produces, you will never have more than the average person. I hope this helps someone out there. Tai, as always... Great content! Keep up the Great Work Sincerely, Lance Thomas Davidson

The best way I found to find a mentor is to realize they *are out there* and willing to help. Look under a *charity online*. A homeless shelter, a child advocate group, any kind of community based organization. And look under the donors. They are easy to find. But don't bother them. Be candid and explain your situation where you want to be and leave it at that. If they help *great!* if *Not* move on. *DO NOT* Explain about how miserable you are or how you have no money. Misery or sob stories will leave you on the street alone. I hope this helps someone who is sincere about getting *a hand up, not a hand out.*

Thanks Tai I'm on my way! For those wondering how to make money while working for free may I offer a bit of advice. Learn a skill and/or offer a service to others that you can already do. I taught myself how to crochet because I knew that was something I could do at home or anywhere for that matter while working for free. I also do housekeeping in affluent neighborhoods because I can charge more ($20 per hour)and have a more flexible schedule. I now make about $80 a day with crochet(i have an etsy online store) plus a steady $300 per week from housekeeping. I'm 40 yrs and I'm doing it. I desire to become a mechanical engineer. Now to find to mentor and I most certainly will! Best of wishes to everyone

My best friend who was a few years older than me (senior in high school) was/is a genius. He spent hours teaching me coding and helping me with schoolwork. He was the guy to finish his calculus test first. Most of all, he took all the meaning from things into his brain. He could make a 10 page book a 100 page essay. He recently ran away. The age of 17, you truly remind me of him. Thanks for the videos sir, things have sucked without him. Our two brains together would be brilliant but it's to bad it won't happen.

All I can say is ask. If you want a mentor ask people to be your mentor. I'm trying to get a job in the tech field and I decided one day I would as my professor a bunch of questions. One thing lead to another and now he's helping me get a job. I went from no opportunity to a job opportunity. He's not my mentor that I go to twice a week. He's looking over my resume and preparing me for this job. He doesn't have to but he saw my drive and passion for technology. So always ask don't be afraid!

Hi Tai. I love your 67 Step Program, it has a great and abundant content.Thank you. Regarding this video I agree with you that I have to find an activity that I like and look for mentors in this field and I disagree that I have to volunteer full time, they will not give me a job with volunteering, I can learn about the business, I can know and meet people in the field and make connections, I can get experience for my resume but lamentably they will not give me a job in the place that I volunteer. To get a job it is better if I can find an internship in the same company even with the lowest salary or like you say sweeping the floor with a low salary. This is better than volunteering to get a job. When I volunteer they want me to continue working for free, this is the nature of volunteering. Like you say in volunteering or working I have to be impressive and do my best,

The things people do when the try to find mentors, calling around to a hundred different business owners, asking parents if they know someone who would be willing to help. Well the first day I tried, I found people and set up meetings to talk with them. I just walked into stores and I find 3 owners who were willing to talk with me, within an hour. I just walked in, I'd suggest doing that.

If you could make a video and recommend a/some book/s about pushing yourself out of your comfort zone it would be appreciated. You know how those who had a harsh upbringing often seem to be very passionate about things in life and how they work super hard to achieve their goals versus those who had a comfortable childhood seem to just lie there in their comfort zone because they have no sense of urgency or desperation? It would be cool to get your insight on that.

Tai, I'm a junior in high school and I haven't exactly pinpointed what I want to major in. I'm stuck between programming and coding or animation and environment design. Since my school in a small NC town doesn't offer any classes of the sort I've take the initiative to get the courses added in the hopes that I can take them before I graduate. Anyways, my question was how did you fund your trips to foreign countries to meet with people? Now I guess I can fly up and talk my uncle. He would be a start to the whole mentor thing. He's been a very successful businessman and a terrific architect. An example of work he has done is the Phare tower in Paris. I believe that he could help in the environment design. I should be over in LA this summer. Hope to here back from you soon! Many more questions!

If one wishes to know about anything, you must first empty all you think you know about the subject of focus, to then learn about that thing and your motivations behind our desires for success. Then, while gaining that new knowledge with new passion and with true intimacy we will move forward with true focus and intent. Intentions are what we are judged by most. Did we show a true desire to learn, or control something instead? Were we filled with doubt before an idea was even presented? How can you make the crucial decisions in your business or life without any true clarity of your internal direction?
