My First Group Mentoring Session In 2017

"He who gloats over the past is like one attempting to backslide into the future. There's more in front of you...focus." - Bankole Williams

Hello you!
Thanks for joining me here today. For some reason, it feels like it's been ages since I posted on here meanwhile, I'm on schedule with my weekly posts. I think all my activities this week are to be blamed for this. I was involved in a lot of activities this week, many of them were impromptu, and I thoroughly enjoyed everything.

The highlight of my week was a mentoring session I participated in on Friday. It was hosted by the awesome Bankole Williams at his offices in Lekki Phase 1, and he shared the stage with the phenomenal John Obidi. To say it was amazing is an understatement! I enjoyed it so much, I forgot to take pictures.(I'm sorry!🙈)

For those not new to my blog, you already know how much I love to talk about personal growth and development, so being in an environment where everything that's being talked about inspired me to grow was like me being in a candy store. At some point, I felt like everything was frozen and I had to take intentional deep breaths to be sure that I was breathing.

I met some funny people(the girl who sat beside said that her name was Chioma but we could call her 'Chio'. Lol!), some lawyers*wink wink*, the funny events host/Master of Ceremonies, Mr. 'Omo' Annette(I hope I spelt his name right), the amazing Osayi Lasisi, and lots of other amazing people! I learnt a lot, heard loads of interesting stuff, laughed like crazy, and generally loved it all!(Before I had to run off to my office which was why I had no chance to network with other attendees or take pictures.😩)

At the end though, it was amazing, and I look forward to participating in more of these sessions. And when(not if) all things work together to align a little bit, I would definitely love to invest in having personal mentoring sessions. And hopefully, get blessed with a mentor. Just me having all that sugary goodness and soaking it all up like a sponge. The thought of that makes my heart beat faster. Yes, I am that excited about my goal to invest in myself this year.

Have you ever participated in a mentoring session or had a mentor? How did you go about it all? And if you have never had a mentor, what's stopping you? Actually, what are you excited about this year? Share in the comments section so that we can hold each other accountable for how we spend this year.
