I’m incredibly selfish and it’s why…
I do this as often as possible.
Spend time mentoring.
And IT IS selfish.
Sure I help someone else
But the way it makes me feel
Like I matter in someone’s life.
It feels significant.
So I did it again just last week.
I met with a super smart computer science student.
But at a small liberal arts college in northern VT.
Which means…
→ No recruitment
→ Hard to make connections
→ Hard to know how to stand out
We had a fantastic conversation.
I was able to help him learn:
→ Who in the industry is hiring
→ How to stand out from his peers
→ What he needs to do to get hired
I was able to make introductions to hiring managers too.
It was 90 minutes out of my day.
But it gives me an enormous sense of fulfillment.
↳ To help the next generation find their path.
My question to you…
What “selfish” thing do you do that helps others?
