Team work!!!

In a team when we work, we crib when the other is not working, when the things are not moving, we blame others for not putting effort. Whenever it’s a team work, we look for others involvement. Yes team work is all working together, but most of the time what we miss is its just a psychological satisfaction that others in the team are working as hard as we are. We are all get too focused with doing the work rather than getting it done. This is what is called management by objective. Some time back while I was surfing in the net, I found this story; interesting one, go through it…
A man was lost while driving through the country. As he tried to reach for the map, he accidentally drove off the road into a ditch. Though he wasn’t injured, his car was stuck deep into the mud. So the man walked to a nearby farm to ask for help.

“Warwick can get you out of that ditch,” said the farmer, pointing to an old mule standing in a field. The man looked at the decrepit old mule and looked at the farmer who just stood there repeating, “Yep, old Warwick can do the job.” the man figured he had nothing to lose. The two men and the mule made their way back to the ditch. The farmer hitched the mule to the car. With a snap of the reins, he shouted,

“Pull, Fred! Pull, Jack! Pull, Ted! Pull Warwick!”

And the mule pulled that car right out of the ditch.

The man was amazed. He thanked the farmer, patted the mule, and asked, “Why did you call all of those names before you called Warwick?”

The farmer grinned and said, “Old Warwick is just about blind. As long as he believes he’s part of a team, he doesn’t mind pulling.”
