For How Long?  

The Requirement for Apprenticeship:

By nature except the natural man has someone who will regularly inspire him through discipline, he may easily settle down with status quo, and before long get into self-commendation exercise.

Apprenticeship has plenty of advantages to offer those who are ready to subject themselves to it. 

  Book Summary Preface: Ministry is the highest form of calling. No other kind of work in life compares with it.

  William D. Wattles The Advancing Man: No matter who you are, if you can give increase of life to others and make them sensible of the fact, they will be attracted to you and you will get rich.

  William D. Wattles Chapter Thirteen: Getting Into the Right Business: The different faculties are tools. It is essential to have good tools, but it is also essential that the tools should be used in the right way.

  William D. Wattles Chapter Seven: Gratitude:   Many people who order their lives rightly in all other ways are kept in poverty by lack of gratitude. Having received one gift from God they cut the wire which connects them to Him by failing to make acknowledgement.

  William D. Wattles   Chapter Six: You do not have to deal with your fellow man unfairly in order for you to be rich. Give to every man in use value more than you take from him in cash value (then you are adding to life in  every business transaction).

  William D. Wattles   Chapter Five: You must get out of the idea that there is a deity whose will it is that you should be poor or whose
