What Is a Mentor and Why Does It Matter?
Hall tackles the question of exactly what a mentor is and what a mentor does in the first section of the book. He outlines how adversity affects children and how a strong mentor can help them overcome that hurdle to grow and thrive.

"You can learn how to adopt a mentor mindset, understand the power of education and build mentoring relationships with Mentor or Die," said Hall. "Mentoring has changed my life, and I want to help people move from sitting on the sidelines wringing their hands to being actively engaged doing good in their communities."

Hall gives you the skills and understanding you need to provide proper guidance to children and young people struggling with adversity. You can help before they get far down the wrong road.

Mentoring young people is not an entirely selfless act. It provides real and meaningful benefits to those who choose to become mentors. Your own self discipline will improve as you develop a new understanding of what it really means and how to apply discipline to your own life with Hall's five steps to a disciplined mind. Mentor or Die tackles topics that make you think deeply about your own life and beliefs such as being strong without being violent, discovering your own reasons for success and finding strength through God. Becoming a mentor means a positive change in your own life as well as your community.
