That's one of the big things about Tai, helping people get educated about what's not taught in school. Yes, should be taught in school, though isn't, at least not yet.
Tai the true is you are the only and first one on the internet sharing your knowledge with ppl average like me .. That's call true mentor Thanks is not enough
You want me to suggest some books? or some other online mentors? Firstly, you have to specify what area of life you want to grow in and learn... tell me that and I'll tell you what I know to help...
You explained it best when you said to swap the word "mentor" with "coach". What I took away is: No one cares if you're reinventing the wheel everyday. You're not in competition, there are no style points for HOW you reach prosperity. Why do it the hardest way possible? Stand on the shoulders of giants. Thank you Tai.
I consider Tai one of my mentors even tho I never met him but just by listening to his speeches and watching his videos Thank you so much for being true to who you are. And Thank you for taking the time or giving advices to the world. Some of us actually care to listen, and take mental notes.
TRUTH!!! The first mentorship I received was originally through a network marketing company although I no longer participate in that industry, it transformed my life. The world needs to know this and your message. Mentorship is paying it forward! Awesome video Tai!!!!!!
As someone who is an avid reader and was once one of those "lone wolves," thinking that I could do EVERYTHING by myself, I can say that a mentor is a necessity. Someone who has been there and done it can save you a lot of heartache and frustration as well as being a well of knowledge. Books do certainly help, but it helps to have real life person to bounce ideas off off and help you navigate your way through. I was wise enough to put my pride aside and ask for mentorship when needed. Better late than never.
You have had many mentors and now look...you are the mentor for hundreds of thousand of people. You are the most inspiring people I know of. Thanks Tai!!
I absolutely agree with you Tai! You've taught me the importance of mentors and books ... Now I read 2 books a week and crushing it in business. Huge thanks my man! :)))
You cannot know what you do not know, so learn what others have learned in their lifetimes to accelerate the process. Mentors are key 🔑 Tai, you are one of the greats as you are creating mass awareness and reaching so many people with your badassery, so I thank you! Appreciate all that you share and hope others do the same 🙌🏻
Mentors will help you learn from what they have accomplished and learned over a long period of time and let you skip most mistakes. I agree there is no reason to make twice as many mistakes when you can skip most of them from learning from other peoples failures. A gps is the best way to put it. Follow the right road and you'll end up at the right destination. You might hit some mistakes/falures here and there, no matter what you'll see where you're mentor/coach ended up. You'll follow there foot-prints and end up on the podium with them eventually🔐🏆 FACTS! Go straight to the top📚 Very inspirational Tai and you're one of those people who other people analyze what you have accomplished and do everyday and started listening to you as well as learning📚 I'm sure most people have found instant results. As I have. Listen and you will learn. 100 percent true.
I coach tennis at a famous tennis academy in Florida. I'm 23 years old and might not be wise enough yet, but I love encouraging and leading the kids I train. I work with all levels, including high performance players. Those are the kids that need to be pushed more than the other ones because they have a dream. Many times they let themselves down. That's when I love my job the most; that's when I take a pen in my hand and write a note of encouragement to help those kids get back on track and battle for what they are dreaming of. And gosh, what an effect it has! Needless to say you're an amazing source of inspiration. I always looked for ways to improve myself through books and mentors and I highly believe in the idea that you emphasize in this video. Mentors and books will get you far. Love it, Tai, keep on spreading your wisdom!
Guys its true a mentor would help you a ton, but there is no need to actually find them in real life, since they'll be busy 90% of the time. It would be better and more time sparring to find mentors on UA-cam. Tai, Gary, The Entrepreneur and etc. They all make great content on how to be successful in life, regardless if its a business or not. So in a way, they are my mentors that I haven't even met in real life
probably half true....I don't think virtual mentors would give you the full confidence/answers for what you wanna achieve in life, but even though they are not "optimal" I guess they are good enough until you find the "RIGHT ONE" :)
No Trial when the student is ready the teacher will appear. If u really want a mentor you would go look for one. Here's some names to go look for: Robert Kiyosaki, Kris Krohn, Tony Robbins
i agree that they are worth watching. if you do as they suggest and come up with different results then learn from that and do the opposite of what they say next time lol. I like Tail Lopez because I dont feel scammed or lied to when i watch him. he's pretty up front about the fact that you cant get what you are truly asking for for free, however even though hes not giving you "sacred secrets" all of what he says ties into those sacred secrets much of it probably gets overlooked but its actually deep if you saw it from his pov. case and point i spent 7 years for this "ability to succeed because of knowledge" and im not going to give it away for free either. If you pay for something it's better than if its given to you because you earned it and the thing your paying for in this case is priceless and is something none of us deserve trust me... so if you cant find it on your own because of google and nobody who has it wants to give it away freely your stuck PAYING a mentor for it. so dont watch TOO much UA-cam or else you will learn too much of the wrong thing.. BUT watch all the tai lopez you want because Ive never caught Tai Lopez saying things to you that are blatantly untrue in efforts to make you less successful. That is happening all around you but NOT on Tai's channel just sayin. However since the internet has been taken by trolls, shills, scammers, growth hackers, all under the influence of Google, it's difficult to trust any influencer at all with your money because what if they give you the results you want but not how they did it? Thats a band-aid on leak that needs a permanent fix. I'm willing to bet that Tai actually teaches the real stuff but I'm also willing to bet he makes you fork over a lot for it over the course of a long period of time because its like you gotta pay your dues but thats just an assumption and how i personally feel and I have no clue what he teaches or doesn't teach. For all I know it could be the cats pajamas I just doubt I personally would gain from it until the last couple steps that cost the most money lol. Would love to find out if thats true free of charge though.
learning is never ending process and in order to learn we do need books or any other sources to hain knowledge as much as we can but with the help of mentor we will be able to put things in correct manner or will be able to use gain knowledge in a better way because as you said smart work is needed to rectify hard work .
TAI LOPEZ my opinion on this video is you really show how much it takes to get to the top for success is not just developed on solo effort you have to get it from somewhere there's always a way you get that motivation for your success & reading is one big way plus having a mentor it can also even be the author of a book will be someone mentor just seeing a quote can motivate someone to change the perspective on there day It's like a fortune cookie just one thing they read a day can turn around someone outcome. Thank you Tai Lopez you motivate me so much! Ps Love Your Snapchat LoL🙌🏻 WORK SMATER NOT HARDER 👨🏻💻
my grandfather used to say the same, "work smarter, not harder." That being said you can't be afraid of hard work, or have expectations that your mentors will do it for you. The knowledge cotained in books and the experience of your mentors could greatly cut down the time it takes you to do what you are looking for. I love history for this reason, learning from the mistakes of others :) Thanks for the great information Tai!
Both Tai and Gary Vee are 100% right. They don't disagree, they just address 2 different problems. 1. Its absolutely disgusting how many people call themselves "Entrepreneurs" and all they do is read books and go to networking events. They just wanna "play business" to feel good about themselves and look cool on social media. But they are too scared to actually build a business. Gary Vee is addressing those people 2. WAAAY too many people approach starting a business as if it is a fucking lottery, they think "i have a million dollar idea, and i will just work hard on it and hope that it works" Then of course 90% of them fail cause they don't have the Knowhow and the strategy to build a business. They don't have ANY work experience or book-knowledge about the industry they try to conquer yet they are so fucking ignorant and arrogant that they think they can succeed just by having a "good idea" and some luck. Tai is addressing these people Some people need to listen to Gary, some to tai and many actually commit both errors at the same time(they procrastinate by consuming huge amounts of info, yet that info has nothing to do with the business they are trying to start)
Another thing one should add is this: Gary vee is an industry that changes so fast there are no books available, he can't learn that way. However, he is constantly hanging out with top CEOs, either his clients or people like mark zuckerberg he works with as an investor. If you tell me that gary does not learn useful information from these people you are out of your fucking mind.
That some deep advice, you've given there Tai. An amalgamation of sage mentors and solid literature (Books, pod casts, documentaries,, seminars) make'th the invincible man. You happen to be one of my key mentors, i haven't meet you but only get access to you from Nairobi, Kenya via youtube and your blog. Despite the geographical barriers i want you to know you still influence many globally. Keep up the good work and trust that one day when my diligence and smart work has paid off, i'll meet you in flesh. God bless......
This video blows my mind and changed my life I was considering going to someone and asking them to teach me and mentor me I would work hard from them for free. After watching this I am committed now. any advice on how to get the person you want to mentor you to be your mentor?.
Tia your dead on point about this! Mentors/Coaches are vital to your success! At 17 years old I started asking myself the question "What do these successful people know that I don't know?" So I started studying successful people from all industries, through youtube, social media, & books! Sure enough at 19 years old I was offered the opportunity to be mentored in the financial services industry by some very successful who are now my personal mentors/coaches. I am now a 20yr old entrepreneur being mentored & taught how to be in business for myself through the financial services industry. I am coached & guided every single day of my life & can honestly say I would not still be in business or have grown so much as I have with out the opportunity to be be mentored & coached by people who have already done what I intend to do, which all started with asking myself that one simple question! I now have a vision to be one of the greatest entrepreneurs to walk the face of the earth. I have a long way to go, but because I remain a student/sponge & consistently seek guidance I am sure to succeed. Thanks for the video Tia, I don't think I can get much more honest/sincere than this.. P.S. An Ipad Air would definitely help me stay organized in my business & on my journey. Thanks for your content you bring much value to the world, can't wait to meet you some day! 😌👍
1. Start off by clarifying what you want from a mentor exactly, because it coincides with what you want to achieve. 2. Start with someone in your immediate network who have done what you want to do. 3. Offer something for free to them first i.e a way to save them time, lunch or yes even money. 4. If those options are absolutely are not available books and on-line mentoring is an option once you have done your homework on there success rate. 5. No kidding hang out at a Starbucks in an affluent area you would be amazed at the business owners I have met and what someone will share over a cup of coffee that you offer to buy! now Go To Your Destiny Young Jedi!
I work way too hard and I am currently not enjoying life. I need some help to get in the right direction I am interested in many different things. I plan on making a list of things i would love to do as my business. I want multiple streams of income and to never worry about where money will come from ever again. I lack charm and charisma and I am a very blunt person.
I thought you were a charlatan but this video just proved you are not.... No because you said what I wanted to hear, that was it anyways , but you were truly right
Mentors/Coaches are always needed. This year I want to do something different in my life. I want a better life and I know I need to do many things to get their. Your snap chat shows the importance of having a mentor in your life. You have opened my mind by letting it know you don't become smarter or make better moves on your own. Reading a book will help us advance in life and I will take you up on the free reading list you offered on this video. I want to advance my knowledge more and become who I want to be and be were I want to be. I agree being humble on your advances is the way to go and believing you don't need anyone only gets you to more and more headaches. When you can learn from other people and not make the mistake you we're going to make without their advice.
ive been doing all this manifesting and affirmations etc! feeling like im living in the wrong life! ii wana get out!! ii need more than this! im getting frustrated! im tired of all this simple shyt.. im ready to move on!! @Tai Lopez
This video really is giving me drive and ambition. I wish I could find a mentor like yourself, I work like Leon's mom and have a wife 2 kids and my father in law to take care of. My wife is sick with lupus and can't work, her father is just older and can't do anything. I really am going to do all I can to stop just cutting through the jungle and get someone to mentor me and show me the directional path to financial freedom. I have been following you for awhile but just now starting to listen, I have a new drive to stop just "working harder" and be smarter. I really need help I have begun reading books and really have learned lot of things in about 12 days. I am looking for my leverage to have the ability to take my family on vacation, I have worked since 12 yrs old and never been on a real vacation, lived in California my whole life and never been to Disney Land, a lot of people laugh when I say that but it is try. I can't stop working and I want to change that. Thanks again for your guidance and advise. Peace and blessings!!
I will listen to people like you,you teach what teachers don't teach in school. am 17 and i look up to people like you. keep doing what are you doing .
I like it. always inspirational man. As a farmer I never thought to look for other farmers to mentor me because I was stubborn but now I reach out to everyone because everyone has value, no matter what scale.
Love this man. I definitely cannot win if I hustle alone but if I learn from mentors and books, I definitely will without an ounce of a doubt, win at life. Thanks for this message brother. I will meet you one day. 📚🙏💪
Thank you Tai.After a beautiful,open conversation with my wife last night I told her that I definitely needed a mentor. I discovered your videos only today.Your honesty is what captured me from the start....keep up the work....you’re definitely making a difference...Happy Growing!
I couldn't agree more. I've been following you since 2014 and the most impactful advice that changed my life and understanding of the world was this one.
I can hardly believe that there are people which don't realise how valuable your content is, and how much u are able to summarize for us in the best form possible, we really appreciate you chose to share your knowledge, as teachers and coaches do deserve more, being able to help someone is the greatest skill, and you posses it with no doubts
I'm glad my buddy introduced me to you 2 years ago, you completely change the way I live my life and how I use my time. Btw, my buddy is Alec who is blessed to work close with you and be a part of your business vacations. Thanks.. coach!
you explained very well yes we all need mentors trainers and the one who guides us in our life but all we need is to learn this from our childhood in early school .your way of teaching is appreciatable
my mentors brian tracy, tony Robbins, les brown and last but not the least tai Lopez. . my life has changed a lot in two years. I have been watching their seminars, books and motivational videos. There are good people in this world. Thank you :) grateful
To be honest I really liked this video, not only because it showed his views on the world, but it was enjoyable to find out why he felt this. He told us about what he felt was best for the world, and it was truly inspiring to listen to someone as relatable as Tai. Great video.
The 1st 2 questions of the video ... Yes and Yes ... the smartest people / billionaires have or had mentors. And you also need to read ..... You need to be able to read to get through life. You are a great inspiration Tai !
YES agree :-) One day I met a 96 year old in the local library asking me about smartphones - he had that natural curiosity that we unlearn in school. Searching for mentors doesn't have to be like "do you wanna be my mentor?" just simply "can you answer my questions?" unfortunately, in school we experience daily that learning is not fun but a plague. And we become fearful of ASKING because everyone might laugh at our question... Somehow sad that intelligence beats manual work but it's real since stone-age. I love your work and that you care more than most about those in need.
Having a mentor is great and also very important. Have someone that can lead you in the right direction and helping you with the problems you can't lead.
I agree with Tai and I think you do need mentors because first of all , like you said , they cut the learning curb . Second of all , they have more expe- rience than you so they 've definitely made more mistakes than you and know what 's the right thing or the right way to do something and finally I think they are pretty necessary because they not only have different ways to get things done but they 'll suggest you the most fastest and efficient way to do things plus they 'll guide you down the road of good life. I'll give my example only ...I had a mentor for Accountancy is 12th trade .....I sure didn't score more than nerds but I had more knowledge and I knew how to solve the problem quickly,easily and efficiently. People who think you don't need a mentor because either they're lucky or they are too proud to admit it. Whether you agree or not it up to you but if you wanna be successful in life you need mentors to guide you, it's as simple as that.
You have a right as hell Tai. Everybody (who want good live) need a mentors, or read books or both. You're one of them for me, even if you don't know. Thanks for your stuff, I follow :)
Morning! Although I am not an entrepreneur or a business woman in anyway,I truly believe in dedication and hard work for a productive life. I am currently going to school to become a forensic investigator and I'm constantly reading, mostly crime books but I also read self-made books that teach you to go after your dreams to make those hard decisions and to make yourself feel lost in order to become accomplished and successful. I find you truly inspiring not just because of all the nice things you have in your life but because of your words of wisdom and the inspiration that you give me personally. I find it refreshing when you can obviously tell that individuals are hard workers and they don't ask for handouts and they don't need special priorities to get what they want. I am 22 years old and I've just finished paying off my first car, and financing a new condo, and finally feel like I have my school bills in order (not paid off quite yet lol) my mentors are my father and my sister because they tell me almost daily but unless I'm doing what I love I'm wasting my time. I feel so incredibly close to my family and I believe that's because they want me to succeed and they inspire me to follow my heart ❤️ even if I don't win I just wanted to say thank you so much for always speaking about and motivating individuals to get up and go. I have a ways to go before I get to where I want to be in my life but I can honestly say I am happy and I know I am on the right path from the support of my mentors and people like you who inspire us every day. @margauxblaaaaair @haleyyhudsonn @emilycommon
As I watched your Tedx vid way back, reading is like talking to great minds who ever walked the earth. They may be dead but when you read their book, their voice is speaking to you. Plus, Mentor? You are already talking. We can find a lot of mentors here just like you. Thumbs up man.
Thanks, this made me realize how much I appreciate the mentorship of my father and grandfather. My grandfather owned a multimillion dollar business at the peak of his life, and I love hearing about his stories
I agree with your argument. The most successful people in the world have had mentors to learn from. I think its just hard to find the right mentor that is willing to take the time to spend with young individuals that are eager to learn. Bless up Tai
Hi Tai! Thanks for the video! Every single bit of what you said is absolutely true! I've a mentor in the past and he said exactly the same thing. He expected me to deliver results by working SMART and not hard. Since then, it's a turning point of my career. And seeing this video, it reminds me to work even smarter! For myself... And the community around me! Wish one day I'd have the chance to meet you and how I can work smarter and make a difference to the world in a big and sustainable way! Thanks again! KD
Couldn't have said it better. I think it is a very short-sighted person who thinks they can't learn from other's experiences and fields of expertise. One who thinks he knows everything is one who is limiting their potential. Keep speaking truth Tai. Love the inspiration.
So wise! I always say in order to learn something new we have to say to ourselves we know nothing. That way we put our own ego aside and learn something and see it in a way you never did. You see it in the eyes of another and have a different perspective and see something you never did in a way you never thought.
This attitude should be taught in school. It's skill and advanced mindset that improves the world.
That's one of the big things about Tai, helping people get educated about what's not taught in school. Yes, should be taught in school, though isn't, at least not yet.
A lot of the problems of the world that shouldn't be problems stem from a lack of individual ability.
exactly and we should be able to choose those mentors who inspire us to . if by chance they teach
Tai the true is you are the only and first one on the internet sharing your knowledge with ppl average like me .. That's call true mentor Thanks is not enough
if it's not enough just read books and look for other people online... there are heaps!
Could you suggest some please?
You want me to suggest some books? or some other online mentors? Firstly, you have to specify what area of life you want to grow in and learn... tell me that and I'll tell you what I know to help...
Vary Vanderchuck..... great modern entrepreneur that posts youtube vidsas well. Check him out!
Some mentors i can look up to. And sure, thank you to you guys! :)
That's such a good point - if Mark Zuckerberg needs books and mentors than I definately need to start reading more.
You explained it best when you said to swap the word "mentor" with "coach". What I took away is: No one cares if you're reinventing the wheel everyday. You're not in competition, there are no style points for HOW you reach prosperity. Why do it the hardest way possible? Stand on the shoulders of giants. Thank you Tai.
Cade Murphy congrats
nice comment.
I consider Tai one of my mentors even tho I never met him but just by listening to his speeches and watching his videos Thank you so much for being true to who you are. And Thank you for taking the time or giving advices to the world. Some of us actually care to listen, and take mental notes.
TRUTH!!! The first mentorship I received was originally through a network marketing company although I no longer participate in that industry, it transformed my life. The world needs to know this and your message. Mentorship is paying it forward! Awesome video Tai!!!!!!
One of the only videos of Gary's that I have ever disagreed with. Thank you Tai, I agree with you. You are an amazing mentor!
Britton Kleeb where can I find that vid?
Britton Kleeb yeah man Even I think the same
can u show me the video of Gary? whats the title ?
Britton Kleeb Gary already clarified his point and how many people missed it. And I'm surprised Tai felt in that category.
And if you are mentoring people not to have a mentor... it just undermines the whole situation and relationship....
Thanks for being my mentor Tai
lol
Indeed 100% tai !! You're right!! Having a mentor is the key to success
Just amazing Tai, Im 15 currently but working towards becoming an entrepreneur. Mentors are key
ItsEZJ Same age same goal ✌. wanna connect my ig is t.telfah
T Telfah Twitter instead? @1Jamill
ItsEZJ I'm @taher62a
I am 16 and got some goals n mind too haha :) And I am very obsessed with getting what I want and working hard for it, but also smart :p
@@TimmyKo How do u sell app bro? I mean what kind of apps?
I think you need both , the problem is to find a good mentor
Perhaps we should strive to learn via as many modes as we can: books, videos, podcasts, webinars, seminars, the _works_!
Just gotta know what kind of mentor you want and where to look for them. And never give up until you find the right teacher, mentor, or coach
Day programs celints should go to the agency's
I do need a full-time mentor
Wow. Just motivated me to get a high-level mentor. Thank you Tai!
Do you got one?
Tai This is definitely directed to Gary Vee and you know what I agree with you 100%
Haha yeah XD
How is he targeting G.V ?
The Finesse Lifestyle when did he mention Gary V?
which video?
Why?

Hello, I love your vision, thank you for sharing it, you give me a guide on my path.
As much as I love taking the piss out of you Tai, I loved your words in this video.
Best youtube video on the planet man. Keep teaching!

Would love to find out if thats true free of charge though.
Wow I loved the passion in this video. Thank you for clearing the air Tai.
"Pride comes before fall." So true and thanks for sharing man.
AGREED!

Thank you Tai Lopez you motivate me so much! Ps Love Your Snapchat LoL🙌🏻 WORK SMATER NOT HARDER 👨🏻💻
my grandfather used to say the same, "work smarter, not harder." That being said you can't be afraid of hard work, or have expectations that your mentors will do it for you. The knowledge cotained in books and the experience of your mentors could greatly cut down the time it takes you to do what you are looking for. I love history for this reason, learning from the mistakes of others :) Thanks for the great information Tai!
I dont need to but I want mentors/books because you can learn alot faster compared to what you can learn yourself
also I would not be nearly as successful if I did it myself (I realised my mistake whilst watching your video so thanks for that!)
Both Tai and Gary Vee are 100% right. They don't disagree, they just address 2 different problems.
1. Its absolutely disgusting how many people call themselves "Entrepreneurs" and all they do is read books and go to networking events. They just wanna "play business" to feel good about themselves and look cool on social media. But they are too scared to actually build a business. Gary Vee is addressing those people
2. WAAAY too many people approach starting a business as if it is a fucking lottery, they think "i have a million dollar idea, and i will just work hard on it and hope that it works"
Then of course 90% of them fail cause they don't have the Knowhow and the strategy to build a business. They don't have ANY work experience or book-knowledge about the industry they try to conquer yet they are so fucking ignorant and arrogant that they think they can succeed just by having a "good idea" and some luck. Tai is addressing these people
Some people need to listen to Gary, some to tai and many actually commit both errors at the same time(they procrastinate by consuming huge amounts of info, yet that info has nothing to do with the business they are trying to start)
Another thing one should add is this:
Gary vee is an industry that changes so fast there are no books available,
he can't learn that way.
However, he is constantly hanging out with top CEOs, either his clients or people like mark zuckerberg he works with as an investor.
If you tell me that gary does not learn useful information from these people you are out of your fucking mind.
That some deep advice, you've given there Tai. An amalgamation of sage mentors and solid literature (Books, pod casts, documentaries,, seminars) make'th the invincible man. You happen to be one of my key mentors, i haven't meet you but only get access to you from Nairobi, Kenya via youtube and your blog. Despite the geographical barriers i want you to know you still influence many globally. Keep up the good work and trust that one day when my diligence and smart work has paid off, i'll meet you in flesh.
God bless......
This video blows my mind and changed my life I was considering going to someone and asking them to teach me and mentor me I would work hard from them for free. After watching this I am committed now. any advice on how to get the person you want to mentor you to be your mentor?.
Is this towards Gary V's Video?
Emmanuel perla sure sounds like it but he said it wasn't doesn't matter either way it's still valuable
Can you tell me the name of the video you're talking about? thanks
just look up gary v on facebook his video should be on his page
Emmanuel perla yh that's what I think
go to your facebook and look up gary v he has it posted there "do you need a mentor?"
Tia your dead on point about this! Mentors/Coaches are vital to your success! At 17 years old I started asking myself the question "What do these successful people know that I don't know?" So I started studying successful people from all industries, through youtube, social media, & books! Sure enough at 19 years old I was offered the opportunity to be mentored in the financial services industry by some very successful who are now my personal mentors/coaches. I am now a 20yr old entrepreneur being mentored & taught how to be in business for myself through the financial services industry. I am coached & guided every single day of my life & can honestly say I would not still be in business or have grown so much as I have with out the opportunity to be be mentored & coached by people who have already done what I intend to do, which all started with asking myself that one simple question! I now have a vision to be one of the greatest entrepreneurs to walk the face of the earth. I have a long way to go, but because I remain a student/sponge & consistently seek guidance I am sure to succeed. Thanks for the video Tia, I don't think I can get much more honest/sincere than this.. P.S. An Ipad Air would definitely help me stay organized in my business & on my journey. Thanks for your content you bring much value to the world, can't wait to meet you some day! 😌👍
How do I get a mentor
1. Start off by clarifying what you want from a mentor exactly, because it coincides with what you want to achieve. 2. Start with someone in your immediate network who have done what you want to do. 3. Offer something for free to them first i.e a way to save them time, lunch or yes even money. 4. If those options are absolutely are not available books and on-line mentoring is an option once you have done your homework on there success rate. 5. No kidding hang out at a Starbucks in an affluent area you would be amazed at the business owners I have met and what someone will share over a cup of coffee that you offer to buy! now Go To Your Destiny Young Jedi!
Tai Lopez answer my question. Do Pablo Escobar have a mentor
Yea look up greselda Blanca
GRISELDA BLANCO
Clorox Bleach Yes. The street.
Clorox Bleach yes Griselda Blanco was her name google it
Clorox Bleach it's called Google
Tai you're one of the only people in the world who makes sense. Thank you. Please keep up the good work. The world needs to get smarter.
I work way too hard and I am currently not enjoying life. I need some help to get in the right direction I am interested in many different things. I plan on making a list of things i would love to do as my business. I want multiple streams of income and to never worry about where money will come from ever again. I lack charm and charisma and I am a very blunt person.
hey my friend try to talk to a physcology doctor then
I thought you were a charlatan but this video just proved you are not.... No because you said what I wanted to hear, that was it anyways , but you were truly right
People lie,but numbers don't. All you have covered just in one sentence. Thank you so much I learn a lot from you everyday.
booooks and KNOWLEEDGE!

Robin/Batman
Excellent. And also batman/alfred
Mentors/Coaches are always needed. This year I want to do something different in my life. I want a better life and I know I need to do many things to get their. Your snap chat shows the importance of having a mentor in your life. You have opened my mind by letting it know you don't become smarter or make better moves on your own. Reading a book will help us advance in life and I will take you up on the free reading list you offered on this video. I want to advance my knowledge more and become who I want to be and be were I want to be. I agree being humble on your advances is the way to go and believing you don't need anyone only gets you to more and more headaches. When you can learn from other people and not make the mistake you we're going to make without their advice.
Full 13 minutes of truth
@Tai Lopez okay how do u find a mentor??
ive been doing all this manifesting and affirmations etc! feeling like im living in the wrong life! ii wana get out!! ii need more than this! im getting frustrated! im tired of all this simple shyt.. im ready to move on!! @Tai Lopez
Lala Taylor Start with someone smaller, even your own dad or uncle will do. Get some contacts and work your way up the mentor ladder.
Lala Taylor Look for people who achieved what you want to achieve. Or somebody who helped others achieve it.
Get Somme contacts and work your way up the mentor ladder and yea most people neeed mentor bc it my help them be something in life
This video really is giving me drive and ambition. I wish I could find a mentor like yourself, I work like Leon's mom and have a wife 2 kids and my father in law to take care of. My wife is sick with lupus and can't work, her father is just older and can't do anything. I really am going to do all I can to stop just cutting through the jungle and get someone to mentor me and show me the directional path to financial freedom. I have been following you for awhile but just now starting to listen, I have a new drive to stop just "working harder" and be smarter. I really need help I have begun reading books and really have learned lot of things in about 12 days. I am looking for my leverage to have the ability to take my family on vacation, I have worked since 12 yrs old and never been on a real vacation, lived in California my whole life and never been to Disney Land, a lot of people laugh when I say that but it is try. I can't stop working and I want to change that. Thanks again for your guidance and advise. Peace and blessings!!
I bet you first need the KNOWLEDGE
I will listen to people like you,you teach what teachers don't teach in school. am 17 and i look up to people like you. keep doing what are you doing .
I like it. always inspirational man. As a farmer I never thought to look for other farmers to mentor me because I was stubborn but now I reach out to everyone because everyone has value, no matter what scale.
You give strait content no blubber or fluffing . I love it man thanks !
Mentor and books are amazing, they show guidance and motivates, giving you ideas and the mental boost you need.
Thank you U.K. Fan
Love this man. I definitely cannot win if I hustle alone but if I learn from mentors and books, I definitely will without an ounce of a doubt, win at life. Thanks for this message brother. I will meet you one day. 📚🙏💪
Hi Tai, I'm a bit late coming across your content, but better now than never! Thank you for the great content and mentorship!
Thank you Tai for changing my life, I appreciate all your content keep up the fantastic work. Uk
Thank you Tai.After a beautiful,open conversation with my wife last night I told her that I definitely needed a mentor. I discovered your videos only today.Your honesty is what captured me from the start....keep up the work....you’re definitely making a difference...Happy Growing!
Yes. Every successful person has had mentors and reads books. They expand the mind
I couldn't agree more. I've been following you since 2014 and the most impactful advice that changed my life and understanding of the world was this one.
I can hardly believe that there are people which don't realise how valuable your content is, and how much u are able to summarize for us in the best form possible, we really appreciate you chose to share your knowledge, as teachers and coaches do deserve more, being able to help someone is the greatest skill, and you posses it with no doubts
My ideas are always perceived as crazy. The more I learn about the story behind successful entrepreneurs the less crazy I feel. Thanks tai!
Mentors are the key to success !!! You are an amazing Person Tai!!!
Tai it's awesome that you do what you want to do, because this content is so important for everyone.
You said it all Tai. There's a need for one to have a mentor to succeed and make it big in life and there's no other way you can go about it. Thanks.
Your advice always straight. People lie but the number don't. Love you, Tai
mentors are a must they guide and keep you motivated to do better than they did and they guide the correct way, thank you Tai for all the motivation
I agree Tai, for someone inexperienced a mentor would be a great addition to help them further achieve their goals.
I'm glad my buddy introduced me to you 2 years ago, you completely change the way I live my life and how I use my time. Btw, my buddy is Alec who is blessed to work close with you and be a part of your business vacations. Thanks.. coach!
you explained very well yes we all need mentors trainers and the one who guides us in our life but all we need is to learn this from our childhood in early school .your way of teaching is appreciatable
my mentors brian tracy, tony Robbins, les brown and last but not the least tai Lopez. . my life has changed a lot in two years. I have been watching their seminars, books and motivational videos. There are good people in this world. Thank you :) grateful
To be honest I really liked this video, not only because it showed his views on the world, but it was enjoyable to find out why he felt this. He told us about what he felt was best for the world, and it was truly inspiring to listen to someone as relatable as Tai. Great video.
Thanks for your Mentoring Tai, you are helping a lot of people, you are a true inspiration, wish you the best
great words from a great man, nothing but love and respect Tai
Having a mentor is a great blessing in this world.
The 1st 2 questions of the video ... Yes and Yes ... the smartest people / billionaires have or had mentors. And you also need to read ..... You need to be able to read to get through life. You are a great inspiration Tai !
YES agree :-)
One day I met a 96 year old in the local library asking me about smartphones - he had that natural curiosity that we unlearn in school.
Searching for mentors doesn't have to be like "do you wanna be my mentor?" just simply "can you answer my questions?"
unfortunately, in school we experience daily that learning is not fun but a plague. And we become fearful of ASKING because everyone might laugh at our question...
Somehow sad that intelligence beats manual work but it's real since stone-age.
I love your work and that you care more than most about those in need.
Great advice Tai! You're an excellent mentor to a lot of people online who live the values you preach!
Having a mentor is great and also very important. Have someone that can lead you in the right direction and helping you with the problems you can't lead.
You have my utmost gratitude Tai. Thank you.
I agree with you Mr Lopez mentors are important in our lives. we all need support going up the ladder
Tai you're my coach. Not physically but you have left us alot of knowledge online to use to better our life.
I agree with Tai and I think you do need mentors because first of all , like you said , they cut the learning curb . Second of all , they have more expe- rience than you so they 've definitely made more mistakes than you and know what 's the right thing or the right way to do something and finally I think they are pretty necessary because they not only have different ways to get things done but they 'll suggest you the most fastest and efficient way to do things plus they 'll guide you down the road of good life. I'll give my example only ...I had a mentor for Accountancy is 12th trade .....I sure didn't score more than nerds but I had more knowledge and I knew how to solve the problem quickly,easily and efficiently. People who think you don't need a mentor because either they're lucky or they are too proud to admit it. Whether you agree or not it up to you but if you wanna be successful in life you need mentors to guide you, it's as simple as that.
You have a right as hell Tai. Everybody (who want good live) need a mentors, or read books or both. You're one of them for me, even if you don't know. Thanks for your stuff, I follow :)
I like how your enabling sentences for every word you say, makes people watch more.. very smart.
Very True Tai! You're Spot On! Love your Channel!
Morning! Although I am not an entrepreneur or a business woman in anyway,I truly believe in dedication and hard work for a productive life. I am currently going to school to become a forensic investigator and I'm constantly reading, mostly crime books but I also read self-made books that teach you to go after your dreams to make those hard decisions and to make yourself feel lost in order to become accomplished and successful. I find you truly inspiring not just because of all the nice things you have in your life but because of your words of wisdom and the inspiration that you give me personally. I find it refreshing when you can obviously tell that individuals are hard workers and they don't ask for handouts and they don't need special priorities to get what they want. I am 22 years old and I've just finished paying off my first car, and financing a new condo, and finally feel like I have my school bills in order (not paid off quite yet lol) my mentors are my father and my sister because they tell me almost daily but unless I'm doing what I love I'm wasting my time. I feel so incredibly close to my family and I believe that's because they want me to succeed and they inspire me to follow my heart ❤️ even if I don't win I just wanted to say thank you so much for always speaking about and motivating individuals to get up and go. I have a ways to go before I get to where I want to be in my life but I can honestly say I am happy and I know I am on the right path from the support of my mentors and people like you who inspire us every day. @margauxblaaaaair
@haleyyhudsonn
@emilycommon
You know everything about knowledge!😂 Such a perfect man!! Love you....
As I watched your Tedx vid way back, reading is like talking to great minds who ever walked the earth. They may be dead but when you read their book, their voice is speaking to you. Plus, Mentor? You are already talking. We can find a lot of mentors here just like you. Thumbs up man.
Bro.. Tai.. you are a virtual mentor. Thank you!
Thanks, this made me realize how much I appreciate the mentorship of my father and grandfather. My grandfather owned a multimillion dollar business at the peak of his life, and I love hearing about his stories
This video just inspired me to read more, listen more, learn more and put into action what I learn. Thank you, Tai!
I agree with you 100% a mentor is like a shortcut to success! And who doesn't want a short cut in life?
I've never tried in school but then I discovered you and you've inspired me to really try at what ever I do as I want to make something of my life
I agree with your argument. The most successful people in the world have had mentors to learn from. I think its just hard to find the right mentor that is willing to take the time to spend with young individuals that are eager to learn. Bless up Tai
Hi Tai!
Thanks for the video! Every single bit of what you said is absolutely true! I've a mentor in the past and he said exactly the same thing. He expected me to deliver results by working SMART and not hard. Since then, it's a turning point of my career. And seeing this video, it reminds me to work even smarter! For myself... And the community around me! Wish one day I'd have the chance to meet you and how I can work smarter and make a difference to the world in a big and sustainable way!
Thanks again!
KD
You are the man Tai, you have changed my life.
Tai, just by doing this video, you've mentored so manny people. Gracias por su generosidad!
Couldn't have said it better. I think it is a very short-sighted person who thinks they can't learn from other's experiences and fields of expertise. One who thinks he knows everything is one who is limiting their potential. Keep speaking truth Tai. Love the inspiration.
Totally agree Tai. You do need someone to look up to and help you succeed
So wise! I always say in order to learn something new we have to say to ourselves we know nothing. That way we put our own ego aside and learn something and see it in a way you never did. You see it in the eyes of another and have a different perspective and see something you never did in a way you never thought.
