“Teamwork is so important that it is virtually impossible for you to reach the heights of your capabilities or make the money that you want without becoming very good at it.” -Brian Tracy
Do you truly believe the president of the United States runs the country entirely alone? Or do you believe it was Steve Jobs who created the most influential and innovative products of our lifetime by himself? If you do then you’re insane. There are so many moving parts that go on behind the scenes that we don’t notice. What I’m trying to get at is that we don’t have to go at this alone. As a matter of fact we can’t or else we’ll lose. We need people behind the scenes helping us and coaching through the tough times.
People who have been where we have before. People who understand the hard things. People who needed someone like themselves at the worst of times. You need a supporting cast behind you. No matter what you’re trying to accomplish you need a team. A team of experts who compliment you. When you’re training for a race you need a coach to guide you on your path. Someone to hold you accountable for getting the work in. Someone to make sure you’re doing everything you need to do on a daily basis. This shouldn’t be one person. It’s almost always more. This team will guide you to your goal. Follow there rules and help them show you the way. Don’t try to do this on your own. Assemble the correct team around you and reap the benefits. You can do this. You will do this. But, it must be with the help of your supporting cast.
