A constant and infinite learning process
Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life.
I've been a part of the MF for such little time, and I can already pin-point the differences in my way of thinking and in the perceptions that I have about certain things in my life. What I love most about the MF is that it makes me appreciate teamwork at a whole new level; a level that supercedes any differences.
During my team-up paper, a few months ago, my team apart from me, consisted of two chinese, a german and chilean, and two people from the United states. One astonishing thing I realised about us was that we weren't just appreciating our cultural differences and different points of view, but we were learning to work as a team in spite of those differences. Variety is the spice of life. And cultural differences are too small a barrier when the paramount objective is to achieve unity and co-operation.
A lot of times, when a team loses focus of its vision and goal, the team players get nervous about their own capabilities and caliber. In times like these, it's essential that a leader keeps his cool and continues to have faith in his men; sometimes when he's not sure of even himself. A leader apart from just being dominating needs to realise that in the worst scenario, he is the only one who must think clearly and objectively.
It's hard to lead a cavalry charge if you think you look funny on a horse.
