So, he has apparently taken a vow of poverty and lives at the local
Y? Somehow, I don't think he is hurting for income.
Seriously, tho, the parallel is clear. When I was a new and rabid
Ambot, most of my direct upline came from my sunday school class.
In the lessons and discussions, we often repeated the same phrases
about showing the plan or looking for prospects when talking about
evangelism, just without the Business specific words. We would even
wink at eachother in small groups because we got the inside joke
about where our "insight" came from.
Coupling the two concepts helped me see the inconsistencies in both
areas and I am now happily free from both fantasy worlds.
Price's book is a good read, tho his language gets a bit pendantic
at times.
