Mentoring doesn’t need a program. It can be five minutes after practice showing someone your routine.

Useful teaching mostly happens in five-minute chunks, standing up, with nobody calling it teaching. What the younger person needs is rarely a curriculum. It is seeing how you actually do the thing: your warm-up, your shortcut, the order you go in, the part you skip. That knowledge is invisible to them until someone shows it, and you already have it.

Find one person this week who is a year or two behind you in something. Show them your routine for ten minutes, out loud, including the parts that feel obvious. Do not make it an arrangement, just do it once and let them ask for more.
