Mentor definition

Question
What is a mentor and how can I find one? 
Answer
A mentor is an individual who has more experience than you and cares enough about you to volunteer as your guide and teacher in a particular endeavor, such as your career or your business. A mentor can be a more senior executive at a business, in your industry, or a seasoned entrepreneur willing to help you learn more.

Volunteering could mean the mentor offers to help you, or could accept your request to become your mentor.
