Episode notes

This is probably your best shot at getting a mentor. And the cool part about this is you can essentially pick and choose the person. By telling them you only need to choose between A or B by giving them two finite options, you're making it really easy for them to respond. All they have to do is come back to you and say, I do thing A or I do thing B. That is all we need. You are basically going to deepen your relationship and build more investment with this mentor. They are going to see all of the things that you've accomplished as a result of their advice. But you have to approach this the right way.

Austin shares how you can find a mentor to accelerate your success!
