I think finding a mentor can help you avoid a lot of unnecessary mistakes (although mistakes are usually great learning experiences!) but that relationship needs to be one of mutual gain and respect, don't you think? One stands to benefit greatly from a mentor, but must have something to offer in return...even if it is just that 100% commitment that you wrote about. Most successful people out there are glad to share their knowledge and experience as long as their student is willing to put forth the effort. In many cases, the student may be proficient in some area in which the mentor is not as strong as they would like. After all, when a person stops trying to better themselves they stop growing as a person! I am fortunate enough to have recently found a great mentor and my life is truly changing before my eyes... Thanks for the post Diggy. ~Ross Hi Diggy, definitely another great movie…you are right, the martial arts in it are fantastic.

Hehe, cool, you may unofficially compete with us :P. I know there are many equally skilled bloggers on a similar level to Bud and I that would also like to compete, and we all try to help each other out and motivate each other where possible :) Have an awesome day sir! Armen! :)

I agree we can compete against ourselves, and it's good to push through when we want to give up too easily. That is indeed a way to see it, life is a continuous journey of experiences and growth, and sometimes perseverance is needed to reach the next level. :) Heya Brett:)

I am unofficially competing with you and Bud in that material, but I don't know if there is such a thing as an "unofficial competition". I thought I'd point that out, or else I would be the only one seeing it as a 3-way competition. On that point about mentorship, I agree with you fully, as a mentor boosts you so far ahead that you wonder how you did things without a mentor. Good stuff. .-= Armen Shirvanian´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TimelessInformation/~3/O-C0hBcV9vY/" rel="nofollow">Outdoor Mountain Hiking Trail Adventure – Setting Goal Points</a> =-.
