"Mentor Me" Book Review:

"Yes, there are plenty of bestselling gurus willing to show you the way, but few make it so readily relatable as Poirot.

Insightful but above all else practical in its application, Mentor Me provides the tools for personal change and achievement and is deserving of your attention. It is highly recommended."

Below is an excerpt to a recent author interview:

"Q: Why did you write MENTOR ME? Your life seems quite full without the need to produce a book!

Ken Poirot: I have a deep desire to help people and to influence others in a positive way. You can only touch so many people’s lives directly on a daily basis, even as a manager sometimes interacting with hundreds.

In contrast, a book is a medium you can use to leverage yourself and potentially positively affect many, many more lives. Additionally, a book is permanent. We all face the fact we are mortal; as I wrote in 'Mentor Me':

'Time (T) is our most valuable commodity. None of us knows how much Time (T) we have on this earth, and no matter how much money we have, we cannot buy any more of it.'

Writing this book was a way to leverage my time to potentially help more people presently and even after I am long gone from this earth."

"Mentor Me" Review:

"Are you wanting, wishing for your dreams to come true?...Then this would be the book for you.

Now a bit of full disclosure, I don't like these types of self-help books...I was pleasantly surprised. This one had some really great ideas, pointers and ways to plan to actually get your ideas to manifest..."

Guest Blog Excerpt for "Mentor Me"...

"The biggest surprises for me: 1) everyone seems to take something different from their experience with 'Mentor Me' and mostly based solely on their own personal biases 2) Only one reader so far has alluded to a more complex theme written into 'Mentor Me.'
This is a deceptively simple self-help and business book. One can read it on a superficial level and gain the benefit from the simple self-help and business information in the book. Or, one can read it looking for other more complex themes in this deceptively simple self-help and business book.

As I recently described “Mentor Me,” it is a bit of a 'literary chameleon' depending on how deeply it is dissected by the reader. I recently described it as '…the crossroads and convergence of where science, metaphysics, religion, and utopian society intersect.'

Part of me is laughing at the fact it has been read on such a superficial level while missing both the subtle and unsubtle themes purposely embedded in the book. Another part of me is thoroughly disappointed there is no further expectation of a 'self-help and business book' but to be completely superficial.

After all, shouldn’t readers have been alerted there may be more to this deceptively simple self-help and business book when the Preface covers the meaning of life? Or how about this phrase, '…this world we live in, in my humble opinion, may, in fact, be hell'—a very theological/philosophical theme also introduced in the Preface of just a typical, 'simple self-help and business book.'

"Mentor Me" Review:

"For anyone who follows my reviews, my obsession with self-help books is not really a secret, but I'll share it again here: I have this thing about personal growth and read a lot of self help books. Now, I know what you're thinking - so many of them are all the same. That's true, but there are a lot of them that are different, or at the very least share things in a different way.

I think this book falls under the latter. I found this book to be very motivational - not only does it tell you what you can do to transform your life and the steps you need to take, but it gives you activities to do, encourages you to do them, and each activity empowers you. I actually felt like Ken was standing there, tapping his foot with his arms crossed over his chest, waiting for me to do what he told me to do. And I'm thankful for that. Sometimes you need a gentle push, other times you need a shove ... and he's there when both are needed.

I read the book through in it's entirety, highlighting some interesting things along the way, then came back and did half of the activities so far and I have to say - I feel better for it. This is a self help book that I suggest others read.


'I have found we can learn something from just about anyone, if
we approach others with an open mind, take the time to get to
know them, seek out, and listen to what they can teach us.'"

The Three Keys to Success in Mentor Me

I discovered a pattern while working with (and studying) successful people throughout my lifetime, including almost twenty years in the financial services industry.

This pattern revealed successful people use a common core skill set in order to obtain success. In addition, I realized this information could be assembled, taught, and learned.

I call this core skill set: the three keys to success.

So what are these three keys to success and how can you use them to transform your life?

Success is unlocked by the proper implementation of these three keys :

1) Goal Setting
2) Time Management
3) Life Skills


The following graphic summarizes this concept:

https://www.goodreads.com/photo/autho...


Properly use these three keys and anyone can transform their life!

Specifically, the benefits are the following:

- Goal Setting helps people get focused
- Time Management helps people be focused
- Life Skills help people stay focused


With this in mind, Mentor Me methodically walks readers through utilizing these three critical keys in order to create their definition of success.

Over the years I read a myriad of books on these topics, many of which seemed condescending, painfully boring, and/or theoretical. For these reasons, Mentor Me favors a different approach.

It has been described by readers as conversational, interactive, and fun, even with some "smile moments" thrown in for good measure.

Additionally, Mentor Me is designed so readers will benefit as they finish and implement each section of the book, producing an immediate, positive impact on their lives!


Goal Setting: Get Focused

Goal Setting is the first key to achieving success. It is important to define and structure goals, but to do so starting with a completely open mind.

As I wrote in Mentor Me, "Let's face it, the more time we have lived in this world, often the more jaded we become. Remember what life was like before someone ever told you, 'No...you can't?""

"...Children know no limits or boundaries. It is only through society and others telling us what we can and cannot do, what we can and cannot achieve, what we can or cannot accomplish in life, that we shrink or compress our beliefs in what we can achieve.

Ask yourself, what really changed in you from that time in your life, your childhood, when you knew no boundaries or limits? What changed in you when you were a child who dreamed and fantasized about the life you wanted someday?

You will find nothing changed except your beliefs, most likely due to what others and society told you. The only thing that really changed was your belief in yourself and what you believed you could do with your life."

"...It is time to believe again, to believe in yourself and the truth.

You have no boundaries in what you can achieve. "

For this reason, Mentor Me is designed to expand horizons once again, opening readers minds to the realization they are in control of their lives and therefore, their ultimate success.


Chapter I is a guide through this thought process, to help readers get focused by covering how to:

- Start with no structure –“…dream BIG like a child.”
- Visualize the life they want (their Greatest Achievement)
- Add structure to define goals (Elements of a goal, SMART)


Time Management: Be Focused

Mentor Me demonstrates how to directly use time management (be focused) in order to achieve the specific goals readers target for themselves.

It also covers time management in a novel way, using time-tested, real-world strategies, including one exclusively devised by me.

In chapter II, readers set up their blueprint to achieve their own definition of success by learning to:

- Focus their Time (T) and Energy (E) with their goals in mind
- Set up a weekly calendar to move one step closer to goal achievement
- Schedule most important activities ("Big Rocks") first
- Avoid burnout (“High Impact and Low Impact Days Strategy")


Life Skills: Stay Focused

Finally, I realized in addition to the first two keys to success, the most successful people have better-developed life skills than the average person.

These highly-developed life skills help successful people stay focused on their quest to achieve their goals.

This section of Mentor Me contains the tools necessary to stay on track, beginning with a chapter titled, "Understanding Personality Styles."

A deeper understanding of one's own personality style, as well as how one can best relate to other people, is a fundamental building block to help gain and keep others' support on the road to success.

Chapter III includes a personality style quiz and information that readers (and a professional reviewer) have said is one of the most beneficial (and fun) chapters of the book.

Within the life skills chapters, readers learn how to:

- Better understand themselves and relate/communicate more effectively with others
- Absorb new information in less time
- Motivate themselves and others
- Cope with life’s unexpected Situations
- Handle conflict and inspire others


Mentor Me is written to keep readers coming back, referring to it as a helpful guide.

For those readers who are searching for more profound themes, many of these have also been woven into the fabric of Mentor Me.

Some of these themes are subtle while some are not so subtle.

This is truly a book readers can enjoy over and over again on many different levels.

Find out why some have called Mentor Me, "revolutionary" and why it has been quoted around the world!

Enjoy the practicality of the three keys to success, how to use them to transform your life, and the book's deeper themes in pursuit of your goals.
