At my first job out of college my boss became my mentor. She didn't ask me if I wanted a mentor and I wasn't activley seeking one. However, as time went by it became clear that she has much wisdom and advice to share. I tried to take as much of it in as possible. Those three years helped me grow very quickly in the organization and later allowed me to step out into new territory because of the firm foundation my mentor gave me. I have mentors in other areas of my life. They also have proved to be extremely helpful in areas like my faith, family, and career.

I don't think I'd be as well off if I hadn't had friends, family and teachers to give me advice. I agree with the importance of having a guide.
