No Small Thing

This reminds me of James Kerr's book, Legacy, about the New Zealand All-Blacks rugby team. Have a "blue head under control, focused, all-in. The "red head" is angry, emotional, and prone to lose control. 

Love and respect for the game and teammates create sustainable competitive advantage. It also 'plays' at home, school, work, and elsewhere forging value for your leadership and character. 

Being "built to last" is no small thing. Attention to detail serves you well for a lifetime.  

AI Take: 

Being a good teammate is rooted in fostering trust, collaboration, and shared success. The top three factors include:

  1. Accountability and Dependability

    • Show up prepared and ready to contribute.
    • Follow through on commitments, whether it's being punctual to practice or fulfilling game-day roles.
    • Own mistakes and learn from them without passing blame.
  2. Communication and Support

    • Actively listen to teammates and offer constructive feedback.
    • Encourage and uplift others, especially during tough moments.
    • Share information openly, ensuring everyone feels included and valued.
  3. Unselfishness and Commitment to the Team

    • Prioritize team goals over personal accolades.
    • Adapt to different roles or positions to benefit the team.
    • Celebrate others' successes as much as your own.
