Mentors should play a strong role in your progression towards your goals. Every successful person I’ve met, interviewed or read about at one point had someone who was smarter, more experienced and wealthier than they are, regardless of how successful they are.

But guess what? Even mentors get blocks! That’s right. They’re human. They get held back by their own ‘stuff’. So, don’t be too hard on yourself if you know if you’ve been holding yourself back. The first step, is to identify that is even the case!

What I have for you in today’s post are the lessons I learned from a private coaching call I had with a mentor of mine (who wishes to remain anonymous). He shared freely and unreservedly about his own journey and growth through his projects. It’s quite amazing, because what I noticed is the same sort of ‘junk’ runs through most peoples heads regardless of whether it is only a small project or if they are playing a bigger game! It’s how you deal with it that counts.

For anonymity, we’re going to call my mentor Mystery Mentor (MM)

Lately I’ve been asked alot how I got to interview so many great experts.

If you’ve never heard of me before, I’ve interviewed over 30 gurus and experts in all areas including, bestselling authors, movie stars, investors, business owners, speakers and more from all over the world. The beautiful thing is, when I first started nobody had ever heard of me. So, how did I manage to score so many high profile interviewees?

I’ll share some of my insights with you in this article.

First, start by practising with one of your friends. Watch Oprah. Watch Barbara Walters. Or any other well respected interviewer you like, and see how they seamlessly carry on a flowing conversation without really knowing much about the topic at all!

Once you’re confident you can start the following process

Recently, I attended Tony Robbins last ever UPW event in Sydney.

I wanted to share with you all the amazing lessons and reflections learned from the event.

Experiencing Anthony Robbins live was out of this world. Don’t get me wrong – I don’t see Tony as a ‘motivator’ – he has helped me improve all aspects of my life ever since I started to listening to him on audio a few years ago. It became a life goal of mine to go see him live, and when an opportunity came up I bit the dust and threw a few thousand $$ on the table for a front row seat.

The first day included the FIREWALK. But here’s the thing – it’s not really about the firewalk. The firewalk is irrelevant. It represents a metaphor – getting into such a peak state that any obstacle in front of you doesn’t exist. If you’ve ever played sport at a high level or done anything where you’ve been totally in the zone, this would compare to the state Tony helps put you in before the walk.

As we stormed out clapping in unison, chanting ‘YES, YES’ the whole crowd bonded and there was an atmosphere that I’ll never forget. Most of us had been totally starved for the whole day by now (Tony hadn’t given any breaks for 8 hours straight) dehydrated, emotionally smashed and beat up and many still coming to terms with potential ending up with severe burns on their feet…. but everyone was so revved up and the collective energy was a rare occurence that I might only have felt on the most memorable of New Years celebrations when the clock struck midnight.

By my calculations by nights end over 99% of the 5000 had done the walk, many 2 or 3 times. I saw elderly women aged 70+ do it and I also saw 10 and 11 year olds choose to conquer their inner demons. It was a liberating experience. Hell, after walking on fire, making a few bucks online doesn’t seem so daunting anymore.
