365 Tao: Cooperation

"Cooperation with others.
Perception, experience, tenacity.
Know when to lead and when to follow." -365 Tao #17

Text

"When we become involved with a fellowship, we must gradually become an integral, organic part of that organization. The relationship will be one of mutual influence: We must carefully influence the collective, and in turn, we will be shaped by the company we keep."

Thoughts
I, probably like many, have trouble trusting and relinquishing control in order to be a productive part of a group. We don't take the time to listen to others, to try and understand their point of view.-p.a.
