The room you want to be in is where you are the least smart or most novice person. It should be where you can learn the most from others. Watch them and pay attention. They’ll help you become a much better version of yourself. Mentors are an essential aspect of anyone’s success in life because they provide you with a positive role model to emulate.

Some of the most successful millionaires and billionaires in the world have “mastermind” groups with other successful people. They interact with and share ideas on a regular basis to keep cultivating their best selves. These success stories have found the secret to using the mirror neuron phenomenon to its highest benefit.

They all have different strengths and weaknesses. But by spending time with each other, everyone’s individual strengths mirror in the minds of everyone else in the group. So surround yourself with people who are better than you as much as you possibly can. At work, don’t hang out with the losers who are fun to talk to but aren’t going anywhere far in the company.

Instead, chat with and ask questions of the superstars in your business or your boss if they are good role models. They’re probably too busy to hang out with you, but if they see you’re genuinely striving to be useful to the company, they will guide and encourage you.
