Follow on Google News | Part of the battle in life is to control our attitudeQUOTE: “Remember it isn’t how many times you fall, its how many times you stand up again that counts.”
By: Wisdom-and-Philosophy.com by working amongst a team. Poor self-esteem when shared amongst a team of friends will be eliminated and made brighter and stronger from all of the support within the team. Motivation works on a similar thread; when you are part of a team your determination is doubled, when you may have given in working the job solo, the group enthusiasm encourages your dogged effort to continue. Once you have experienced the benefits of being part of a team you will find an urge to do so more often. This could become an answer for people who struggle with projects whereupon their pride prevents them from asking for help and the job takes five times as long. Your energy is sapped; if only you could encourage a few friends and work as a team on the same project. I have heard recently of a ‘Decorating Party’. The idea is based around a desperate need to re-decorate a house for the arrival of a new born. A deadline was looming, so a team of friends were invited around to decorate with a glorious meal and an abundance of wine to conclude the session. Today’s story is about the beauty of working as a team and how more efficient the task can be if shared amongst the other members. DO AS THE GEESE DO! In the fall when you see geese heading south for the winter flying along in the "V" formation, you might be interested in knowing what science has discovered about why they fly that way. It has been learned that as each bird flaps its wings, it creates uplift for the bird immediately following. By flying in a "V" formation, the whole flock adds at least 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own. People who are part of a team and share a common direction get where they are going quicker and easier because they are travelling on the trust of one another and lift each other up along the way. Whenever a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go through it alone and quickly gets back into formation to take advantage of the power of the flock. If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in formation and share information with those who are headed the same way that we are going. When the lead goose gets tired, he rotates back in the wing and another goose takes over. It pays to share leadership and take turns doing hard jobs. The geese honk from behind to encourage those up front to keep their speed. Words of support and inspiration help energize those on the front line, helping them to keep pace in spite of the day-to-day pressures and fatigue. It is important that our honking be encouraging. Otherwise it's just - well honking! Finally, when a goose gets sick or is wounded by a gunshot and falls out, two geese fall out of the formation and follow the injured one down to help and protect him. They stay with him until he is either able to fly or until he is dead and then they launch out with another formation to catch up with their group. When one of us is down, it's up to the others to stand by us in our time of trouble. If we have the sense of a goose, we will stand by each other when things get rough. We will stay in formation with those headed where we want to go. The next time you see a formation of geese, remember.... IT IS A REWARD, A CHALLENGE AND A PRIVILEGE to be a contributing member of a TEAM. (Namrata V.
