Being One
"Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe."- Erwin Schrodinger
The other day I had a conversation with Tommy. He had watched the Belmont derby and wanted to tell me what he thought of it. He had watched the other two races in which California Chrome competed and could definitely tell that they did not find a rhythm. He observed that the house and rider were never in sync. As he explained it, the rider and the house never became one.
I loved his example.
My counter example was of the NBA finals games between the Spurs and Heat. I love playing basketball and pride myself on being a passer. One thing that stood out to me during the games was how great the Spurs were as a passing team. The Hear could not figure out who will shoot. I predict that the Spurs will win mainly because of the superb passing skills.
Both examples lead us to conclude that becoming one, whether two or many, is vital to winning. As the old saying goes, there is no I in team. We have to realize that making a great pass to a co-worker is as important as making a score ourselves. Unfortunately no performance system tracks or rewards this behavior. They should.
Today's question is:
"How would you behave if your performance is based on how well you sty your teammates for success?"
