Trust the process

My mentoring journey was enriching and educational in aspects that can't be taught in schools. One example off the top of my head was patience. In general, I tend to be very critical with myself. This meant that I tend to subconsciously lose confidence in myself, and start becoming skeptical of my future. My mentor noticed it and advised me to have more patience with not just myself, but with my journey too. I heeded her advice and applied it, this resulted in me thinking about the daunting and mysterious future in a more positive manner. After that experience, I gradually became more open to advices, which my former obstinate self would never do.
