Internet Marketing - Does A Mentor Help You Achieve Your Internet Marketing Dream?
- ARTICLES |
Recently I've seen some discussions about getting mentors in the Internet marketing field. Many people discussed the merits of getting a mentor, and indeed there have been marketers who have struck it big under a mentor. But I want to present an alternate view.
I don't believe a mentor plays a major part in your success. Yes, it can play some part, and it can even be the breakthrough you need. But ultimately success depends on yourself.
In other words, you've got to be a self-starter.
Most Internet marketers are self-taught. A mentor can help you achieve your goals faster, but it's your actions and your mindset that will determine how much you make of it. I don't think there is any mentor in the world that can help you do that.
You must remember that most 'gurus' are out for themselves. And it's normal. Their mentoring is their business. If you're not making money, they'll just move on to getting more students and pocketing more cash. That's just the way it is.
Use mentors to get the breakthrough, but don't ever depend on them for motivation or for your business strategy. Determine that for yourself.
Be self-motivated, it's your business and it's your life. Use mentors for help, but don't let them run your business. Make the major decisions, ask your mentor (if you have one) for advice but they're not be all and end all. Remember, even a mentor will keep some secrets to himself and these are the secrets that truly make a difference. The only way you will find out these secrets is by studying how successful people run their business.
