    AbstractThousands of words, scores of models, and multitudes of professionals have attempted to explain and successfully replicate this "thing" we call mentoring. All in service to a greater good, using a win-win interpretation of the purpose and outcome, mentoring has become the hallowed pathway to success in almost every profession. However, life is more than a cause and effect equation.
