We have a few years we’re given on this earth to make it a little better than we found it. All of the easy problems were solved before we arrived. Here’s to finding partners, heroes, mentors and soulmates who keep us focused on tackling the problems we can solve together.

Great mentors are learners as well as teachers.
Data: when mentors value insights from below, they're more engaged and effective—and their mentees are more successful.
Mentoring is not a transfer of wisdom from one to another. It's a relationship where two people grow together.
