To follow well is to learn deeply. In this episode, we explore the relational dimension of the Entered Apprentice — the apprenticeship of humility, listening, and repetition. Progress in Masonry and in life begins when we release the need for mastery and learn to serve the work itself. This is where obedience becomes understanding.
🔑 Key Takeaways
- Learning begins with humility — to follow before leading, to act before evaluating.
- True growth in relationship comes from receptivity, patience, and trust.
