Hello all - This is a topic of particular interest to me because my career has been built around mentorship because of my experiences as a FRC student and later a mentor. I'm extremely proud of all my personal accomplishments and those of the teams I've mentored. There's nothing I would go back and change.

I think the best advice I can give is to listen to yourself. If you are doing something that makes you happy and are able to maintain a healthy life then keep doing it. You're the best gauge of your own abilities and energy, so don't ignore yourself.

It also doesn't hurt to listen to feedback from others. If subtle hints of business, health, or well-being related to what your doing become persistent from co-mentors, family, and friends you may want to listen.

This is a tough topic because FIRST mentors are of the most passionate people who give back. Just do what you think is right.
