Teamwork

If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. (African proverb)

Impatience may be the unspecified disease of modern society. We want what we want right now! We often say, “I can’t wait for . . .” when something exciting lies in the future. Sometimes we rush into a venture alone because we don’t want to wait for someone to help. Too often, disaster is the result. We can most often accomplish more, faster, if we team up for the project.

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. . . . Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken. (Ecclesiastes 4:9, 12)
