+Dial M For Mentor
+-----------------
+
+This talk was accepted and given at: PyCaribbean 2017, DjangoCon Europe 2017, PyCon Italy 2017,
+and PyCon US 2017.
+
+It was also accepted at two another regional Python conferences, but I declined the invitation.
+
+One was because they didn't provide any financial aid, and I didn't have any support from my employer.
+
+The other I declined because I was already going to another conference just one week before,
+and it was getting difficult for my family that I was away all the time.
+
+Mentor
+======
+
+Special thanks to Ned Batchelder who helped me refine this proposal.
+
+Proposal
+========
+
+The following was the proposal I submitted to PyCon US 2017. If you've seen my talk, you will realize
+that the proposal was not quite the same as the talk I gave. I had a life-changing event after this proposal
+was accepted, so I made slight modification.
+
+
+Title
+'''''
+
+Dial M for Mentor
+
+
+Duration
+''''''''
+
+30 minutes slot
+
+
+Who and Why
+'''''''''''
+
+Members of Python and open source community who are looking for a mentor, and needing
+clues as to how to find a good mentor. Those who are hesitant to ask for help may get
+the encouragement to reach out. Current mentors will gain insight about what their
+mentees are going through.
+
+
+Description
+'''''''''''
+
+One of the nicest things about Python community is the availability of mentors
+willing to help you. Various mentors have helped me navigate the open source
+community and help advanced my skills. I realized finding a mentor is not as
+easy as it seems, and it takes a lot of courage to reach out in the first place.
+And then, there is impostor syndrome, where one may feel like they don’t deserve
+the help. In this talk, I will provide advice about working with a mentor.
+Asking for help is not a failure.
+
+
+Outline
+'''''''
+
+1. Myths to debunk: (5-10 minutes)
+
+   - “I don’t deserve their help/I’m not worthy”
+
+     * Impostor Syndrome. Men and women alike can experience this.
+
+     * First, admit that this is a problem, then help yourself.
+
+     * Provide links to other talks/resources which discuss Impostor Syndrome
+
+   - “I’m wasting their time”
+
+     * Mentors learn from you too. Your work may expose them to areas they haven’t been before.
+
+     * Mentors gain skills: leadership, communication, and time management.
+
+     * Sometimes it’s nice to have solvable problems to work on. “Experts” have challenging days of
+       their own full of uncertainty and confusion. Being able to help and having answers to your
+       questions can be a rewarding experience.
+
+   - “I’m a failure for needing help”
+
+   - “I know so little, I don’t even know what questions to ask”
+
+     * It’s part of learning. You will reach the point where you don’t need help anymore.
+
+     * Why work with a mentor (5 minutes)
+
+     * Maybe you’ve been stuck for a long time
+
+     * Maybe you tried it on your own, and not successful.
+
+     * Maybe you’re experienced in one domain, but want to learn new skills
+
+     Eg: You’re experienced in Python, and want to start picking up Javascript/Go/C
+
+     Mentors have gone through your problems. They can help and provide guidance
+     But it’s up to you to reach out in the first place. Don’t believe in myths.
+
+     Personal experience: Making more progress when working with mentor, compared to
+     when trying to achieve things on my own.
+
+2. Where to find mentors (3 minutes)
+
+   - Face to face / in person
+
+   - Someone within your own organization/company/school
+
+   - Someone in your local python community/meetup
+
+   - Online mentorship:
+
+     - Pyladies, Python Core Mentorship
+
+     - IRC or Slack channels
+
+     - Conference speaker mentors
+
+3. Working with your mentor (5 minutes)
+
+   - It’s two-way, requires commitment from both sides
+
+   - Respect each other. Your mentor has other commitments and personal life
+
+   - If it doesn’t work out for any reason, find a different mentor.
+
+   - Want to thank your mentor? Pay it forward. Mentor others.
+
+4. Truth about mentorship (3 minutes)
+
+   - Mentor plays a supporting role. They provide resources and advice needed to succeed.
+     But they won’t be doing your homework.
+
+   - You are the real star of the show, you learn and do all the real work.
+
+   - Don't forget to take credit for your own work and effort.
+
+Thanks!
