While independence, selfeducation and personal drive are all good qualities, at times we may miss out on learning from others who have already achieved success. Finding a great mentor(导师) can fill in the gaps in your knowledge and help you reduce your stress and make your journey to success more enjoyable.A mentor is a person with more experience than you, who can guide you into mastering the practical skills you need for your career in a shorter period of time than you could do on your own.A good mentor will let you know when you are straying(偏离) from the best course. However, hell also have the wisdom and patience not to just hand out advice or try to control your decisions. A good mentor has the goal of helping you become confident and successful in your given field. Even after you have mastered the skills you set out to learn, a mentor can still provide a positive relationship and be a person you can go to if new questions come up.Everyone involved in a company or an organization can experience the benefits of mentoring relationships. The most obvious benefit for people is being mentored. They can gain skills and experience in a given field, as well as avoiding the mistakes they would have made on their own through trial and error. People in the role of the mentor experience the satisfaction of contributing to other peoples wellbeing and growth and also develop their own interpersonal skills.So dont hesitate to find a proper mentor for yourself. However, the perfect mentor is unlikely to walk into your office one day without any effort on your part. Finding the right mentor takes time. This is because the right match may not be the first person you approach or even the second or third. You need to identify several people in your field whose success and personal qualities you admire, and then find out as much as you can about them before you approach them. Be sure to choose someone who is happy and wellbalanced in their career, not just successful in external factors like wealth and reputation. Overall, keep taking action each day to connect with people who you think might be a good fit for you. The more you connect with others and get clear about your goals, the more chances you will have of finding a mentor that can help you take your career to the next level.Topic: Having a MentorIntroduction We are often educated to be 1._，which, however, may result in missing a chance of learning from others.

After exercising, people can order one of four tasty, healthy options on the cafs menu for free.The gym chain explained that the motivation behind the activity is to get sedentary(久坐不动的) office workers away from their desks during the workday. “According to our research British office workers spend almost 90 percent of the working day sitting, being inactive and eating lunch at their desksa problem worsened by the huge popularity and convenience of food and shopping delivery apps，” Elaine Denton, a health and fitness expert from David Lloyd Clubs, said in a statement. “We want to remind workers of the importance of being active at work and moving around more.”She added, “Importantly, the caf isnt in any way about encouraging people to cancel out calories through exercise.
