Read this article from Mark Ford on Early to Rise --> https://www.earlytorise.com/mentor-is-your-key-to-success/

Here's the skinny:

1. Find 5 people in your industry who has the life you want.
2. Make sure they are retired 2-5 years out. (Any longer and they may be out of touch)
3. Write them a message of sincere admiration, their accomplishments, etc.
4. Ask to take them out for coffee.
5. If they live way too far from where you are, ask for a 15-minute phone call.
6. List your goals for the next 5 years, what you expect from this relationship, etc.
7. Discuss with your would-be mentor.
8. FOLLOW HIS/HER ADVICE <-- very important
9. Respect the mentor-mentee relationship by paying them what you are comfortable with and that he/she thinks is fair for their time. (If this gets too expensive, find another mentor)
