Barbara Corcoran, the real estate mogul and "Shark Tank" star, emphasizes the importance of mentorship in entrepreneurship during her All-Star Entrepreneur Retreat in NYC. She derives immense satisfaction from helping small business owners grow and succeed. Corcoran confronts negativity head-on, understanding that criticism can undermine confidence. She advises against internalizing hurtful comments, focusing instead on positivity and encouragement, which fuels resilience in the business landscape. Her insights inspire many to harness adversity as motivation for success, embodying a positive mindset that benefits both mentors and mentees.
The best part for me is working with the entrepreneurs, all of these small businesses, trying to make their dreams come true. I'm right in there with them, thinking about it, dreaming about it, trying to give them hints as to how they could get ahead much faster.
I learned very young that bad comments, critical comments, and cutting comments take you down. It takes you down not only in your feelings, but in the amount of confidence you have for the next project.
