Why Are Our Lives Out of Balance?
Everywhere you look today, you see people that struggle to create a sensible work/life balance.
This doesn't just happen overnight. At first, maybe you decide to spend a little extra time at your job or career, figuring that if you put in the extra time now it will pay off later. After a few years of doing this, you may find yourself logging crazy hours in a never-ending pursuit of some business-related goal. You figure that you have already spent so many years devoting more time to work than free time that it doesn't make any sense to change your regular routine now.
On the other side of the coin, perhaps you adopt the attitude that there is always tomorrow. You'll devote more time to your business, career or job in the future. None of us are guaranteed another minute on this planet, and with that mindset, you devote all your energy to working as little as possible and enjoying no-responsibility free time whenever you can. The years pass, and you end up having to work two jobs to keep up with your mounting bills, and your cherished free time has all but disappeared.

You cannot know everything there is to know about how to get where you want to be in life. While it’s possible to learn the needed skills, this will take time and likely a lot of money. Instead, what if you had someone (or a group of people) who can help guide you to success?
A mentor is someone who currently is where you want to be. The relationship you have with a mentor can be an official one, or it can be informal such as following in the footsteps of someone you admire. Mentors have experience and have gone through growing pains towards success. They will know what kinds of training you may need or skills to develop.
