Mentoring
Thoughts & Musings
Sometimes, your brain is not your friend. Many times it has you vs you having it. It's in control in a way that does not serve you. It overthinks. It creates drama and chaos where none existed before. It worries. It gets jealous. It creates lust. It gets bored. It triggers reactive emotional states. The list goes on and on.
Whatever you are up to in life, support can make the difference between success and just being average. But support is often looked at as a sign of weakness. Based on our society, you should be able to do it yourself! Though this is not true, it's one of many challenges on the way to success.
Let's look at the costs and payoffs of these two mentoring modalities…
Is it happening now? Are you staying at a job 'just for the money.' Or did you just leave a place where it was happening? You couldn't put up with the B.S. anymore and you 'just had to leave.' Dysfunction is defined as abnormality or impairment of function. Is work hard and frustrating? Or boring and slow? Are the people around you procrastinators, workaholics or perfectionists? Are you just going through the motions? Would you do what you are doing for work for free?
