The Invisible Mentor

10 People Who Would Have Been Great Bloggers

Very Old Tree in China

For the past few weeks, I have been thinking about people who have died, who would have been great bloggers, as well as great Invisible Mentors. These people were innovative thinkers and ahead of their time. I will present their names in this post and in subsequent weeks, together, we will learn more about them, and their contributions to humanity.

At a later date, I will present other innovative thinkers and we will go through the process again. This is an excellent way for us to expand our thinking.

Estee Lauder, Cosmetic Maven and Marketing Strategist
Margaret Mead, Anthropologist
Earl Nightingale, “Dean of Personal Development”
Mary Wollstonecraft, Writer and Philosopher
Thomas Edison, Inventor
Napoleon Hill, Author
Francis Bacon, Philosopher, Scientist and Lawyer
Benjamin Franklin, Inventor, Scientist, Author, Printer and much more
Plato, Philosopher
Simone de Beauvoir, Writer and Philosopher

Why would these innovative thinkers be great bloggers? They knew how to create value, they had a willingness to share with others, they had great lessons to teach and they sometimes went against the grain for things they believed in. We will also look at ways to use what they had to say to apply to our unique situations. Next week, we will start off with Estee Lauder.
