Building Your T.E.A.M.: Motives

What do you focus on, your dream or your team? If you focus on your team, the dream will take care of itself. Have you ever heard, "If you help enough people get what they want, you will get what you want: from Zig Ziglar? It's true. Sow how do you achieve your dreams? Grow your team.

Think of a company that grows a sales team. The owner gets a percentage of everything that is sold. Does it happen automatically? No. They are willing to provide the capital to start up the company. Provide the team with the tools, encouragement, resources and a commission to be the best they can be. They may send you back to school and pay for it. They are giving before receiving. They are helping others get what they want so they can get what they want. If you build the team to just benefit yourself, watch out. You're heading for disappointing times.

When you build your team, you will build community. You will do fun things together like going bowling and having pizza parties, road trips, and picnics. You will celebrate birthdays and new babies coming into the family and you'll be there to help them move into that new house. I remember working in a bank and we had a social every month. We built community because we were together more than we were with our families. You'll be there for the highs and the lows in their lives and they'll be there for yours. John Churton Collins, a critic, said, "In prosperity our friends know us; in adversity we know our friends.

If your desires and wants are to build a team, to add value to others, to help them accomplish their dreams and goals, to see them not live a poverty mindset, but to live life abundantly, you're right on track. I encourage you to start today and send a word of encouragement to someone on your team and tell 'em how much you appreciate them.
