In the video, Kenneth Ortiz discusses that it is important to have a plan and focus on helping people improve on their personal goals. I think that lines up well with what I do as a coach in the district and would suit me well as a mentor.
My college basketball coach is one of the people who always stands out to me as a mentor in my life. He was always there with a plan in place to help me improve on my skills. He helped me deal with injuries and setbacks which I feel has helped me tremendously as an adult to handle the adversity that comes with the day-to-day.
I believe that time is going to be the biggest hurdle towards truly succeeding as a mentor. We all feel squeezed all the time between work and home life responsibilities. Being able to add in an additional one is going to be the challenge.
