A mentor is just someone with more experience, with whom you get along, and can help you avoid the mistakes others have made. They can also act as a sounding board and motivation. Mark Cuban may not have had an official mentor, but he’s had parents, friends, business partners, advisors, investors – people who gave him advice on how to succeed.
@mk17173n right now the equivalent of dot come bubble is social media. NUMEROUS people have become millionaries by just using social media the right way. Right now is the age to get rich off of social media
@mk17173n broke mindset
fully agree
Agreed:Dirk was the definition of mentor whether directly or indirectly. At the time Lebron wasn’t. Nor was Bosh or Wade. Cubans 1 championship came because of a leader and mentor.
He owns a basketball team and they have coach so he has mentors who are not official,
..business is a mix of effort and ability..what a simple and effective definition! love it!

A mentor is never a bad thing. Its why rich families stay rich. They pass the knowledge down to their kids. Sure you can go in blind and it can work out, but its even easier for things to go terribly simply due to ignorance.
So true
@JDunamis idk I’m living and learning
Well said! You should probably check this one out! Reasons To Seek Out A Mentor – THE RESULTS ARE STAGGERING!!

It depends on the type of person and history you have. I am going to say on a whim that people with mentors start before or around their early 20s before too much unavoidable tragedy hits their life or before they have too many failures. Maybe not always the case but someone I look up to had a mentor since around 19 I believe and if I started that early maybe I wouldnt have struggled so much with motivation. Some people see success before they have a mentor and that gives them more potential to succeed with a mentor when they start with one because they have had some success and have drive. The biggest question few people answer is how to start if you have never really succeeded and you dropped out of college and you dont particularly like any whole skillset meaning you dont like doing any mainstream online or alternative business as a sole party. I’m an artist who doesnt like marketing though I know how to do everything. And I’ve havent followed through many things in life. Thus I’m still trying to overcome these hurtles. Who can help people who have constantly failed to follow through in their life thus far?
Mentors are meant to point you in the right direction, not micromanage your every move/thought
@N K okay lol
@N K
Lol it has nothing to do with being weak minded. Mentors are for people who are maybe new to an industry and could use some advice regarding different situations.
If you only ever lead the way and you start to become successful then you will eventually hit a wall; all success experiences this. If you haven’t hit wall yet then you aren’t as successful as you could be. When you hit this wall it’s helpful to have someone you can reach out to that you trust and can ask questions to overcome the problem.
Mentors are for the weak minded. Carve your own path, lead the way.
@Invader Z Okey
@Hassan Qayyum Then that’s not a mentor that’s just an advisor whose opinion you value. A mentor is typically someone you view as being superior to yourself in some way and for that reason you go to them to be taught what to do.
the reason i dont believe in mentorship is because everybody is a mentor nowadays on instagram
A worst case scenario for a mentoree: the mentor has them work for free and then takes the credit.
Underrated comment ?
Mentorship is a business just like Motivational speaking. Mark is 100% correct. Mentors are for suckers.
in my opinion, having a mentor accelerates learning specific skills. they’ll help you not to make mistakes they’ve done before.
Takes too long but sticks much better.
I agree with your first comment. Learning form failure takes too long. America sucks because it is very hard to find mentors here.
@Clifford Tuffs I agree. that is also true. your faliur will also be your lessons.
Yes, but some things need to be learned by yourself, other wise the leanings don’t have the depth an weight required to move forward as successfully as you could have.
My mentor never provides me with answers, he would only ever provide a different way of thinking, a different perspective. I think everybody can grow from that.
Hes not cocky. Thats just a “get it done” attitude. Straight forward, get to the point. Thats a strong mindset, however, he knows he needs those opposite him to balance him out, so he is aware of himself.
Glad someone sees the value in figuring it out on your own
best thing every. most “mentors” are there only to make money off you. figure it out yourself, that how all true people like mark, and many many others did it. Bill gates was a small boy when he started lesrning about software.
I think mentorship doesn’t need to be a long-term relationship. We can learn so much from everyone we come across!
Most of them either dropped out of school or resigned from work, they love doing things their own way, no teacher, no boss, no mentor. They are the kind that would say you can’t teach me a thing because you ain’t who I want to become. ???
I am them…so what?
Abanikanda what’s the problem with that brother? I feel like I might have this problem.
learn as you go. just start
Indeed ?
@jayders1 sounds like we hate our life
Learn as you go. Just start
?
That’s what we do.
The best mentor I found in my life is failure. It’s about picking up yourself after and KEEP GOING. Every single fucking time.

Avacado Z I am going to borrow that line from you.?
PastorNolte I like you. ?
i like that
Asking for advice and having a mentor are two different things. And thinking either one is a bad thing is stupid.
Well, when you define a mentor as someone who tells you what to do, then certainly that’s a problem! You need to seek mentors who challenge you and make you think deeply in ways that aren’t natural to your style.
True
Sounds like I should just read a book then
your second sentence was so true
He has mentors but his ego won’t allow him to give them credit
@Yaahboi52 so true
True. Guys like Mark Cuban will never spill the beans in a public platform. That’s the reason why the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor. They know stuff but don’t share it. It’s just how it is.
So true!
Who are his mentors? And who told him to create that Bar that he did during his college years and start Broadcast.com?
But his ego allows him to say that he tries to hire people smarter than him??
I respect his opinion, for sure. I don’t know where I’d be without mentors though.
What a huge grand talk between these rich guy and there isn’t any counter for mark to place his drink lmao
People didn’t get his message. He learn from everyone by always listening then he does his own conclusion. That way everyone becomes a mentor.
Business results changes depending on personal skills and many other circumstances. Someone else success in the past doesnt mean it will apply to you today.
Yes! This is also my philosophy
@steven59 exactly. The man literally said he’s never had a mentor, which is not only arrogant, it’s ignorant. Like he learned to tie his shoes on his own when he learned to walk — then immediately went to the bank to open a checking account. Of course… I’m not sitting on a stage having people fawn all over me so…
Nah he is just too arrogant to give credit to anyone. He wants to compete which is ok but good luck to him trying that with Musk or Bezos.
@Jay M It makes him sound ridiculous, I agree. Like he thinks he is everyone’s mentor and has none but in reality he would not be where he is at and for all his mentors he didn’t mention, they should have never wasted their time on him. Cuban was hungry so he prevailed but his arrogance about it makes me respect him less for his lack of humility in spite of whatever anyone thinks he means. If Warren Buffet could say he had a mentor, Cuban sounds stupid saying he had none (everyone does) whether they acknowledge it or not. I’m a mentor to some in my field and they are my mentor in another field. That isn’t to hard to admit and can even go as far as saying I have had younger mentors than me.
