If you could get one piece of advice from a top mentor today, what would it be?

If I could get one piece of advice from a top mentor today, it would be to clearly identify the one skill, habit, or way of thinking I should start investing in right now that will continue to create value five years from today. With so many trends, tools, and opportunities constantly changing, it’s easy to focus on what feels urgent instead of what truly matters. Insight from an experienced mentor can help separate noise from signal, highlight skills that compound over time, and offer perspective shaped by real wins and failures. When mentors respond in threads, their answers don’t just guide one person—they spark discussion, shared learning, and practical takeaways that others can apply to their own journeys as well.
