Throw Away Your Fly-Swatters and Baygon Sprays

I omitted this opening paragraph for an article I had to write on Mentorship. I obviously got carried away.

In it’s most vivid portrayal best accessible to the majority of us with a predictable ingestion of Hollywood fare, mentorship is a diminutive bearded Asian elderly (preferably Japanese or Chinese) who teaches lightning chops and kicks to an unassuming fourteen-year old, so that the latter may overcome (in style) the trials of growing up. Spoken often unintelligibly and with a suspect air of indifference, the mentor reveals his aged wisdom through adages that are seemingly simplistic, abstract and entirely irrelevant. But when scrutinised and embraced by the discerning, the lacking sophistication in phrases like, “Man who catch fly with chopstick can accomplish anything,” bears an engineered genius that makes it easily applicable to almost any circumstance.
