Does our generation still need mentor?
In a digital age dominated by screens, it's easy to think the internet and social media are our mentors. While they offer immense knowledge, nothing replaces the personal touch of a mentor. Right?
Being a driven woman, I've achieved milestones, yet I owe a significant part of my success to the guidance and insights from my mentors. They see what we might overlook, offering perspectives that shape our journey.
The increasing focus on individualism and self-interest in contemporary society, may lead to a perceived rise in selfish behaviors. Additionally, societal changes, economic pressures, and cultural shifts can also influence how people prioritize their own needs over collective goals.

Mentors offer personalized guidance, wisdom, and support that go beyond what can be gleaned from general resources. They provide real life insights, human connections, and tailored advice that can significantly impact personal and professional growth. Therefore, even in an age of information overload, mentors continue to play a vital role in nurturing talent and fostering success.
