As I go through life I have many choices.
Every day, every minute I can choose the direction I want to take:
Go to work or go to the beach
Go to the gym or eat bon-bons in bed...
In a similar way I get to choose the people I surround myself with, my "tribe"
In
my business there is a tribe called the Competition Tribe. This tribe
has leaders and followers, a few winners and many losers. This tribe
measures itself by the sales board, or perhaps how many push-ups you can
do. This is not a bad thing, but in a Competition Tribe there can only
be one first place winner. If you come in second, you are a loser.
I
have chosen to build a "Rising Tide" Tribe. This tribe has leaders and
followers, but no winners or losers. The game we play is to get better
at our craft each day, and bring others along with us so that everyone
improves. The tribe measures itself by the quality of life we live, not
by how many units sold this month.
