Co-operation

Co-operation is perhaps one of the least recognized but most valuable of human virtues. 

 Being co-operative means to have a quiet eye for what is needed to bring success, and to supply it (and no more)at the right time, in the right place and then to be off.

 Someone who co-operates, offers their services and then splashes their name on the achievement is not co-operative.

 It requires invisibility and precision to do and then to go without waiting for results. It also takes a discerning eye to see exactly what is needed, to be removed sufficiently from your own approach to a task and just to contribute one ingredient. Sometimes not even an idea but, however clever you may consider yourself to be, just a hand, a support.

Taking Action

“For all of the most important things, the timing always sucks. Waiting for a good time to quit your job? The stars will never align and the traffic lights of life will never all be green at the same time. The universe doesn’t conspire against you, but it doesn’t go out of its way to line up the pins either. Conditions are never perfect. “Someday” is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Pro and con lists are just as bad. If it’s important to you and you want to do it “eventually,” just do it and correct course along the way.”
