Have you ever wondered how can you connect or get mentored by high-level individuals? 🤔
|
In this context, let’s define high-level individuals as somebody you look up to in the industry, or somebody who you wish can closely mentor you.
|
They are busy successful individuals that wear many hats and they are many things to many people.
|
“We can’t expect these people to drop everything for a casual coffee chat with us.”
|
This was a big realization for me, and it’s something Alex Hormozi explains perfectly.
|
High-level people like CEOs, entrepreneurs, or industry leaders - these are the people who value their time more than anything.
|
Their schedules are packed, and their time is often tied to high-stakes decisions or high-value tasks.
|
So when they hear vague requests like, “Can I pick your brain over coffee?”, they’re likely to decline.
|
And it’s not because they’re rude. It’s simply because their time is too valuable.
|
For them, an hour spent “hanging out” could cost their business thousands of dollars!
|
What I’ve learned (and what Hormozi preaches) is this:
|
👉 Find ways to provide value first.
|
Instead of asking for their time, think about how you can make their life easier.
|
|
✅ Solving a small problem for them.
|
|
✅ Sharing a useful insight they might find helpful.
|
✅ Introducing them to a person, tool, or resource that could benefit them.
|
By doing this, you position yourself as someone who contributes rather than takes, and that makes you stand out.
|
What if you need their help..?
|
If you do need advice or mentorship, be specific and concise.
|
❌ Don’t ask for generic advice like, “How can I succeed?”
|
Instead, do your research and ask a targeted question that shows you respect their time and expertise.
|
This is a very underrated advice:
|
👉 It’s okay to pay for access.
|
And sometimes, it is necessary.
|
Many of your potential mentors actually offer their time through consulting, courses,or any speaking engagements.
|
Investing in these opportunities shows you’re serious and willing to learn, which can open doors for deeper connections later.
|
Indirectly, once you "pay for access", you will gain closer proximity to them by being in the same room whether that’s through paid events, courses, or communities.
|
This gives you the chance to learn from them, observe how they operate, and potentially build a genuine connection over time.
|
Stop expecting your potential mentors or a high-level network to agree to casual coffee chats.
|
Respect their time, offer value first, and focus on creating proximity instead. That’s how you gain access to the “coffee chats”.
|
I hope this email helps if you're looking for ways to network with people who could mentor, offer opportunities, and open doors for you 🫶
