From God's Word translation, I can say that:
1. Mentoring is birthed from this mentoring. And mentoring is as beneficial and rewarding to the mentor as much as it is to the mentored;
2. Teaching on leadership and fellowship, motivation and positive habit, attitude and behaviour is rewarding to the teacher;
3. Acquiring negotiation skills is a bestowed huge benefit and rewarding to oneself.
