Great thread.
Heres mine :
Look after your mentors. Anyone who takes time to give you guidance, help or advice, go far out of your way to display your appreciation.
If they have children, buy them presents. If they like wine, ask a wine expert for help, and buy them a great bottle of wine.
People so rarely do this that you will absolutely make their day.
- cmos 16y agoI second this. Strongly. I had 2 amazing mentors in high school who supported me in rather extreme ways. After college I had started a company making high end stereo equipment, using a lot of what I had learned from them. 10 years after I graduated high school I had dinner with them and gave them each one of my products, telling them how much they had influenced my life and how thankful I was. A week later one of them died suddenly. So don't waste time in doing this.
