How did you learn to be who you are? Trial and error or did you have a mentor?

I'd argue everyone had a mentor. Originally my 'mentor' was me. I read everything I could on the subject. As a youth I remember going to public libraries to read about the Marquis de Sade, the Spanish Inquisition, and medieval torture. In the pre-internet era the only source was porn shops and videos. I read all I could on the subject, found out that there were clubs and bars where people in the people met and went there. Eventually I made friends and contacts who you could say were mentors. Although they were mostly skill trainers we often talked about lifestyle psychology and philosophy.

It depends upon the person and how they learn best, but for many Mercnbeth describes a common path.
