Whole Bigger than the Parts

In the progress of personality, first comes a declaration of independence, then a recognition of interdependence.

Henry Van Dyke

        Ideally, couples need three lives; one for him, one for her, and one for them together.Jacqueline BissetTWO LOST SOLES SITTING ON THE FENCE
Said the one to the other “We are apart but not yet defeeted”
Said the other to the one “I would hate to be in your shoes”
Said the other to the other. “Let’s get off our high horses, resolve our differences, move forward, and walk in the way of righteousness”
Said the left one to oneself “Was going to say left-sidedness rather than righteousness, for the sake of my pride, and my tribe, but decided to let it go”
Said the one to the other “It is better if we walk together – otherwise we will only be able to hop with no hope”
Said the one to the one “Let’s pursue One and we will find our souls”
And they found their soles and walked into the sunset, foot after foot, hand in hand and lived happily ever after.
The End
Lessons from the sox sitting on a fence = We are better working and walking together than working and walking apart.

The Brick – An Individual Unit That Needs to Connect In Order to Function and Be Valuable
The brick by itself has no function and no value to the world. In order to have value it needs to connect with other bricks. When the brick, a structural unit, connects with other bricks and they organize, a wall is built. The wall as a structural unit, connects with other walls and they organize to form a room, and eventually a building is built. Although the brick is nothing by itself – a weak brick can bring the whole wall and the whole building down.

“Great things in business are never done by one person. They’re done by a team of people.
Jobs, Steve
“My model for business is the Beatles. They were four guys who kept each other’s…negative tendencies in check. They balanced each other and the total was greater than the sum of the parts. That’s how I see business: Great things in business are never done by one person. They’re done by a team of people.
Jobs, Steve
