Day 45 - Cooperation

We can achieve more together than in isolation. When we focus our energy on shared dreams and goals, we can overcome differences of opinion. We can utilize our individual strengths to achieve a common purpose.

Reflection
  • The only way we will make it through is together.
  • Let us cooperate with one another, collaborate with one another and be each other’s support systems.
  • What does it mean to work cooperatively together?
  • What does a cooperative group look like?
Action
  • What were you taught growing up about cooperation?
  • How did this differ from what you were taught about competition?
  • What is one significant way that you can cooperate more effectively with the people in your family or community today?
“If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.”
Nelson Mandela
“We all do better when we work together. Our differences do matter, but our common humanity matters more.”
Bill Clinton
“Cooperation, collaboration and coordination are together more powerful than competition.”
Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr
“The only thing that will redeem mankind is cooperation. Bertrand Russell Nature is based on harmony. So it says if we want to survive and become more like nature, then we actually have to understand that it's cooperation versus competition.”
Bruce Lipton
