Cooperation can give you perspective, ease pressure and improve your performance. Even when you aren’t physically working with others, very little is ever the result of a single person’s efforts. Almost everything you’ve ever done or will do is based on the inputs, innovations, discoveries and groundwork that’s come before. That’s why it’s worth letting go of the need to identify as someone who’s self-made. Not only will it be more accurate, it’ll spur you to seek and actively benefit from conscious collaboration with others and help…
Relax your ego.
Jarl and Steve
I am grateful to see this community involvement. I feel that I am a special, unique person, like the rest of us, but when it comes to my achievements, I feel “ubuntu” all the way. (“ubuntu translates as “I have been able to achieve what I have because I am one of us”).
Love, Larry
