00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.100
Sean Murray: I wanted to ask
you, you know, what's your

2
00:00:02.100 --> 00:00:06.180
what's your definition of a
mentor? And why is the mentor so

3
00:00:06.180 --> 00:00:06.750
important?

4
00:00:07.050 --> 00:00:10.080
Johny Fernandez: Yeah, good
question. So a mentor is someone

5
00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:13.230
who can guide you and so when
you look up to that is an

6
00:00:13.230 --> 00:00:18.240
experienced or seasoned veteran
in a particular field, whatever

7
00:00:18.240 --> 00:00:22.380
field you're working in. And for
me, I believe that a mentor is

8
00:00:22.380 --> 00:00:25.590
important, especially for people
starting out whether it's in the

9
00:00:25.590 --> 00:00:28.560
MCA world, you know, in the
industry, in real estate, and

10
00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:33.270
TV, and whatever world or career
because when you're starting

11
00:00:33.270 --> 00:00:35.970
out, you're pretty much blind,
you don't know anything, and

12
00:00:35.970 --> 00:00:39.810
this person can help you guide
you, and probably more than

13
00:00:39.810 --> 00:00:43.380
likely take you under their
wing, and then they can show you

14
00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:47.790
what mistakes to make and not to
make and what's okay and what's

15
00:00:47.790 --> 00:00:51.630
not okay, and they can save you
a lot of headache, versus you

16
00:00:51.660 --> 00:00:54.930
not having a mentor. And the big
question is how do you find a

17
00:00:54.930 --> 00:00:58.260
mentor? And I believe it's just
simply by going to work and

18
00:00:58.350 --> 00:01:01.200
observing the people around you
and who is willing to help you

19
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:03.510
out because there's always a
mentor out there.
