You don’t necessarily have to know your mentors well. Many of my mentors are individuals I have never even met.
Sometimes it may be unrealistic to meet them in person at the moment. You might not have anyone around you who is pursuing the same goals as you or can assist you in reaching them.
The good thing is that there are millions of books, numerous videos, interviews, and other resources available on the internet. Nowadays, you don’t have to personally know someone for them to mentor you.
You will be influenced and guided by someone regardless, so it’s wise to deliberately choose who that person is.
