Mentor FAQ: 4 Benefits of Mentoring

You’ve probably heard the term ”mentoring” in connection with personal and corporate development programs, but few really know how mentoring can help you to grow, improve and succeed.
So here’s a look at four major benefits of mentoring in both a personal and a professional setting.

Benefit #1: Mentors Provide Insight

A mentor can provide you with objective, helpful insights that you may not have discovered on your own. Each person’s mind works slightly differently and our perceptions are colored by our own experiences. A mentor can provide an objective, third party perspective and insights on your life, your career and beyond.

Benefit #2: Mentors Draw Upon Experience to Help You Avoid Pitfalls

The most talented mentors have ”been there” and ”done that,” so they can draw upon that valuable experience to provide advice and recommendations to mentees who are traveling along the same path that they once traveled. This enables mentees to avoid the pitfalls and snares that would have otherwise fallen victim to. As a result, you can benefit from your mentor’s experience to enjoy more rapid growth, personal development, career advancement and more.

Benefit #3: Mentors Hold You Accountable

Attempting self-improvement, personal development or career growth on your own can be a challenge, especially if you’re prone to procrastination or avoidance. It’s hard to get and stay motivated, especially when you’re facing a real challenge. It’s even more difficult to achieve your goals when there’s nobody to answer to beside yourself! A mentor holds you accountable and this accountability serves as a powerful motivator enabling you to experience more rapid growth and ultimately, success!

Benefit #4: Mentors Help You Achieve Your Goals

A mentor can help you to set ”SMART” goals — that is, goals which are specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-bound. Once you’ve set those goals, your mentor can help you develop the skills, resources and connections you need to succeed, while keeping you motivated and holding you accountable for reaching those objectives.

Assistance with goal setting is especially important for those who have a particular objective or dream in mind, but don’t quite know what skills or steps are required in order to fulfill that dream. But a mentor has typically traveled down that path before, so he or she will know exactly what needs to be done in order for you to succeed!

These are just a few of the many benefits of working with a mentor! Check out The Rain Maker’s related article on the benefits of mentoring, the process and the role of a mentor.

Rose Colored Glasses ~~ "Why We Refuse Reality & Make Excuses"

If someone thinks about or looks at something with rose-colored glasses they think it is more pleasant than it really is - "Scott Binsack"

It is much easier to see life through rose colored glasses then it is to face the real truth of any bad situation. The list is endless of what we can see wearing rose colored glasses e.g. relationships, marriage, career, self image etc. I am going to focus on all of these areas but more particularly, on staying in a bad relationship or marriage. Something I know well first hand!! 

Reality: The world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them.

I think we would all agree that it is much easier to see life or ourselves as we "want to see" it then what it "actually is" at times. Seeing it as it "really is" can be be very painful to ones existence. Painful or not, it should be the only way we see things. For, to see things via rose colored glasses is simply lying to ones self about the truth of any situation and/or themselves. Thus, what really was our life? A big farce!! A lie to ourselves!! 

By accepting and facing reality we are able to change and therefore grow!! No one likes change. Change is painful, especially when it involves our own issues that we must change!! 

Excuse: A reason or explanation put forward to defend or justify a fault or offense.

Through our lifestyle and just human instinct, we've become a culture of excuses. Excuses make life easier, especially when we know we will feed into to them and thus, we decide we would rather make an excuse instead of make a change. When we do something wrong we usually know it’s wrong and are already making up an excuse in our mind. We want to believe that everything is perfect and just right in our situations. As long as we don't look bad or feel bad all is seemingly good. When in fact it is not! The problem is, when we make excuses for our situations, we .. "give up control" of those same situations. It is easy to "blame everyone else" and have that piece of mind that we are doing everything right. ( When we are not!! ) We just have to keep telling ourselves that until we believe it.

Now comes into to play the bad relationship or marriage and the refusal of one partner or both to see this and thus, the false reality we create to stay. Henceforth, the excuses we use to tell ourselves and others for staying in a dysfunctional situation. Such as:

Excuse #1: I’d rather settle for him or her than be alone. 

If you are settling for an unhealthy relationship just to have a warm body near, you are missing the amazing indescribable intimacy that you deserve.

Excuse #2: I’m comfortable. 

Is change something that makes you cringe? Are you stringing a relationship along primarily because it has benefits: money, companionship, image, physical intimacy, fun, familiar routine? Let’s face it, we have all temporarily turned to everything from shopping to food for fulfillment. Things--even relationships with benefits--can never truly satisfy. 

Excuse #3: I love him or her.

"But I looooove him / her!" If I had a nickel for every time I heard those words! Geez! I love my dog! I love my brother! I love my pet hamster! There is a difference in loving and being “in love” and fully committed to the person you KNOW you were meant to be with. Never settle for less!!

Excuse #4: We have a children together.

Admit it. As children, most of us aspired to have better lives than those who raised us. Here’s the kicker: our starting point regarding relationships was the exact representation of what ‘mom’ and ‘dad’ modeled for each of us. My point: it is better to be alone or with the person you truly love then living a lie each day in front of your children. According to statistics, your children will do the same. You think you protecting them when in fact your not, your simply protecting yourself!! The choices YOU make affect future generations. Ponder that! 

Excuse #5: I don’t want to hurt his/ her feelings.

Has your heart left the picture, but your still hanging around because you’d like him/ her to stay happy? Maybe you feel bad leaving him / her because they have invested so as spent so much time and money on you. You’re not stock or a possession; this isn't an investment game. Have you tried to walk away, but they persuaded you to stay? You’re not a puppet; pull your hearts strings from their grip. Your people-pleasing nature, coupled with his / her controlling tendencies, are brewing up your worst nightmare. It’s time to be concerned more with yourself then them!! 

Excuse #6: He / she is “good” enough for me.

Maybe you’re thinking, “I don’t deserve any better,” or perhaps you assume you’d never land among the stars so you've resolved to never shoot for the moon, or your insecurities and fears are holding you back. 

Excuse #7: He or she will change for the better!

Come on, who are you kidding!? You can’t change him / her , and they comfortable the way they are. Statistically and in my experiences people don't change. Not unless they truly want to!! Which takes being awakened by a fall to the bottom or some shocking act in their lives. Even then most don't change. We are the ones that must change and see our own issues for what they truly are. 

These are just some of the main excuses we make to stay trapped in a relationship or marriage we refuse to see for what it truly is. The list of excuses is endless.

So putting on the rose colored glasses everyday is the easiest way to just not face the truth. The easy way out!! When in reality it is living a lie to ourselves and those involved daily. Then before you know it real life and love has passed you by. You grow old and wake up one day wondering what the hell have i done with my life! 

Join me "Scott Binsack" as I share two serious relationships in my life where in one i wore the rose colored glasses and the other were the person involved wore theirs. Both serious stories that changed me forever!! A show not to be missed!!

Thank you for watching,

"Scott Binsack"

NOW UP LIVE THE RE-RELEASE OF: "IDENTIFYING YOUR PASSION ~~ HOW BADLY DO YOU WANT IT"

For living life without passion is simply not living. -“Scott Binsack”

Are you living your life doing what you are passionate about or are you simply existing? Passion can be anything powerful or compelling, a strong desire towards something or just overall enthusiasm in life. Having passion in your life helps give you personal power to live fully. When mind, body and spirit work together,... it can help to manifest your potential and overcome obstacles. Many people shy away from seeking passion because of fear of failure and of taking the risks that will lead to an undefined future. Defining one’s passion in life is paramount in driving creativity and inspiration.

Join "Scott Binsack" as he shares his experience on how to find & maintain the passion which resides within us all.

“One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat.” - Napoleon Hill

Often times, people know exactly what they need to do in order to achieve the life that they want but still aren’t able to make it happen.

One tremendously important reason is that people tend to give up too early.

No one ever said reaching your dreams is going to be easy. In fact, it’s hard and that’s why most people fail to live the life that they want.

The Power Of Purpose ~~ "Creating A Life Worth Living"

 
TONIGHT'S SHOW IS UP AND LIVE!! WATCH IT NOW!!
The Power Of Purpose ~~ "Creating A Life Worth Living"

"Nothing, not all the armies of the world, can stop an idea whose time has come"- Victor Hugo

On this week's powerful show, "Scott Binsack"shares with you how he has taken traumatic hardships head on, using intense focus & sheer determination to identify his purpose life and to overcome great adversity.

Do you have purpose in your life?

There has to be motivation and drive when we want to achieve anything in life. Without it, we get caught up in the lifeless, humdrum world that unfortunately too many people experience day after day, month after month and year after year. We were never meant to live our lives like machines, but for the majority of people that is exactly how they choose to live. They don't want to think for themselves and would rather  have somebody else tell them what to do. We have a brain, but how many really use it?

The power of purpose is indeed a great power and each and every human being has the choice to use it. We should all have a purpose to aim for, it is what brings excitement into our lives, looking forward to a new day, sharing new experiences and helping us to become the best that we can possibly be. A mundane life is no life, hoping and dreaming that something good will happen. It ain't gonna happen!

You have to make it happen through the resolve of your own desire and the natural power of purpose. Look at how the world has moved even in the last thirty years. An idea has been planted by people
that typify their own natural power of purpose, they wanted to make a difference and didn't stop until they did. Look at the mobile phone, the home computer and the technology that is moving faster each and every day. These are just a few examples of what the power of purpose can achieve.

Now we can't expect everyone to be a Bill Gates, Michael Dell or a Charles Dunston, but surely it is better to live your life with the natural power of purpose and to achieve feats that are maybe a little less conspicuous or you may want to change the world. It is a waste of life not to be driven on a daily basis with the desire to become more and live your life with the natural power of purpose.

Join "Scott Binsack" as he challenges you to find purpose in your life. Using his hard hitting tell it like it is style, Scott shows you how to harness your energies into creating a purposeful, meaningful, &  successful life.
