You can prepare for your next meeting by recalling what you have already acted on and not acted on so far in the mentorship. Explore your boundaries.
When you are noting down topics and questions, you might like to ask yourself: What would my mentor ask me at this point? In doing so, you will already have embarked on the self-inquiry that will allow you and your mentor to cover even more ground at your next session.
Here are some questions to kick-start your self-inquiry:
- What causes you to take action?
- What do you not act on? And what stops you?
- What questions would the mentor ask?
- What progression have you seen in the topics addressed during the conversations with your mentor?
- How might the format of the conversation be a challenge for you?
