Mentors can be in a book.
Mentors, of course, could be a great, you know, underappreciated commodities in this country called the teacher.
You know, I just reflect on all the times that I have learned my first mentor and all of my greatest and my mother.
But I just learned that that's what, you know, and mentors usually are only going to tell you probably about three things.
They're going to tell you in business is going to be not to scale too quick, right?
Not to move too fast.
In your life, not to scale too quick.
Learn the lesson, right?
First step, second, backward.
They're going to also tell you to not to spread yourself too thin in business and in life.
Don't have a million friends, you know?
And then they're also going to say in business, same in life.
Don't take in money too soon.
Don't take in partners too soon.
I don't care if you're a kid.
I tell my daughters this and one of them did it the right way and one is in between about to do it the right way.
I always tell kids, do not get married from your 20s to your 30s.
Now, some will get married younger.
No problem.
I understand that.
