Teamwork
Have you ever been a part of a team. If so, what kind of teammate were you. That is the great thing about team sports, you have to learn to work well with others. All it takes is one self centered person on the team to cause us not to achieve our overall team goal. I played sports growing up and was privileged to take the experience all the way to the college level. I have seen one individual destroy the integrity of the entire mission for the team. It happens on the playing field, in the classroom, on the job , and even within the family unit. It will be easy for us to identify this person and spend a lot of time talking about them. But lets talk about the kind of teammate we need to be. It is really simple in words. We are to find out what our responsibilities are and then do it with excellence regardless of how we perceive the work ethic of another to be. Our focus will encourage others, which strengthens the integrity of the team and sets us up to achieve our goals. When I focus and do my job individually for the team, it will Teach Everyone Around Me.
