We'd love to hear from you. What are your thoughts and questions?

Rod Bourn is the founder and Lead Ninja of Down Set Lead; a strategic consulting group focused on helping organizations grow their business and people through coaching, training, mentoring

Main Points:

• Your success is for you to define
• Your greatest untapped resource is a power within a power that continues to replicate itself if you want it to
• In the hero's quest, the most important plot point is finding the helper
• In both your personal and professional life, that helper is best played as a mentor
• Your mentor should be someone who can guide you to the next level, not necessarily to the end-all
• Understand that a mentor does receive benefit from the relationship
• When you've learned all you can from that mentor, move onto the next
• That moving on will expand your network, exposing you to more helpers, resources, and eventually your next mentor
• Karma dictates you pay-it-forward, so look for that younger person who also wants to get better
