Even though I am not considering mentoring or be mentored, I fully agree with the overall idea and approaches to mentoring in the post.

I guess the fast pace society we live in forcing most of us to value immediate answers. And the nature of people like ego, insecurity, will hinder open conversations. A very open idea is very likely to come along with very aggressive opposition if one is not careful to bring it forward.

Anyway thanks for the awesome post!

Yes you touch on one of t underlying reasons - people want to make decisions quickly (for a variety of reasons) but it’s a short term gain - they don’t learn or grow.
