What would your mentor say?

I was on the couch last night dreaming about asking someone I greatly admire for guidance 

I would love to spend a full week with them

For them to hear my background

Observe my habits and routines

Be a fly on the wall for my process 

Call out my blind spots

Answer my questions

And quell my concerns

But this person I’m thinking about

Is, right at this very moment, most likely in a basement in Austin, Texas, USA

With a bunch of sweaty people

Coaching them to be the best in the world in the art of unarmed combat 

So, realistically, it might be a pretty big ask to have them follow me a round for a week :)

But is it necassry?

This morning

I woke up and opened my A5 notebook

And asked myself one question…

What guidance would x give me? 

If they were to look me in the eye, over a cup of tea 

And give me clear, honest, and actionable advice?

I was quite surprised by what they said…

Hope this helps
