One Million Mentors
One Million Mentors (1MM) is a unique, community-based mentoring project with one simple aim: to connect one million young people with one million life-changing opportunities. This is even more important right now given the impact of COVID-19 on young people.

We back the talents of young people to improve their career chances, while at the same time strengthening local communities. 1MM was founded on the belief that through personal, one-to-one mentoring, more young people can grow the knowledge, networks, skills and confidence they need to succeed.

You’re NOT the Average of the Five People You Surround Yourself With - David Burkus

You’ve probably heard it more times than you can count. “You’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with,” a quote attributed most often to motivational speaker Jim Rohn. It’s compelling. It’s provocative. And it isn’t true. At least not in the way that you think.

Risk and Failure

“Fail fast and fail small” – Alan Donegan – Rebel Business School. Try out your ideas – sell your service, product, idea, course or whatever before it is built – minimise the amount of time and/or money you invest – get paid first.
“Failure is not falling down but refusing to get up.” -Chinese proverb. Everyone falls. Those who refuse to pick themselves back up, no matter if it’s after two days or two years, are the true failures.
“Successful people don’t fear failure but understand that it’s necessary to learn and grow from.” -Robert Kiyosaki

Work-Life Balance

“What’s the one thing you can do, such that by doing it, everything else will be easier or unnecessary?” From “The One Thing” by Gary Keller.
