Seek the cooperation of others

     The power of cooperation is recognised whenever a group of people are willing to divest themselves of self-determined outcomes and invest their talents, will, and energy in a common direction in order to accomplish a common goal. To put it simply, if your goal is to succeed against all odds and break the barriers of tough times, then you will want to harness the power of cooperation with other people in your line of work. But you must have the ability to distinguish between those people you really need to help you further your desires and those who cannot. Life is tough enough on its own, but to go through life without the support of others is the most debilitating thing. I want to show you below some kind of people whose cooperation you must seek as you go through life pursuing success. The first is the KINDHEARTED FRIEND. This kind of friend is the one that is willing to offer you anything from words of encouragement to their network list, to even financial help for you to go ahead and pursue your dream, especially when times are tough. This is a generous friend that desires to see you progress and make it. If you are going through tough times they are there to help you. They know your potential and they believe in you so they stand by you when things are not going as desired. The second is the one I call the DIE-HARD OPTIMIST. Life, being what it is, we all get overwhelmed with challenges sometimes. You need the cooperation of this person to help you see the positive angle from where you are standing. This kind of person helps you focus on your strength and the result, rather than your weakness, your limitations, or the challenges. The DIE-HARD OPTIMIST CONSTANTLY TELLS YOU EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT EVEN WHEN IT SEEMS LIKE NOTHING IS WORKING. They believe that no matter what you are going through, everything will work for your good.

Synergy

There is an African proverb that says "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go in a team". This proverb underscores the importance of cooperation. Every success needs the support of others. There are things you can do alone and it will take you to where you want to be fast. But there are things you need to do with others if you want to find yourself on the further road to success. In the world of success, there is something called synergy. Synergy means two things working together creating a greater impact than the sum of their individual parts. The law of synergy states that when the joint action of agents is brought together they increase each other's effectiveness. I believe synergy is what. As humans, we must learn to see each other as synergising partners.  we can do more together, no matter the adversity, than we can alone. BE SURE WHAT YOU WANT TO BE IN THIS LIFE OR YOU WILL END UP LIVING AS A CARBON COPY.

Falling for his best friend by Akonu Emmanuel

The trees blew in the wind with their red and yellow leaves falling slowing onto the soft grass
As his connection and attraction to his best friend increase on seeing her
An unfamiliar feeling arose in his stomach as his eyes bore into hers
 She could see the different Color in them and how they held so much meaning inside
His tense body relaxed at her touch and the coldness in his eyes seems to release
His nonchalant demeanor spoke volumes about his modesty, even more apparently by how suddenly he refuses to make eye contact
In that moment vulnerability was seen his eye
Her eyes briefly connected with his and his body jolted. She was mesmerizing and terrifying like a big tidal wave in the middle of the ocean where your life boat was floating in peace. She would appear  out of nowhere, swallow you whole and obliterate every sign of you on earth
His mind was unconsciously moving his body toward her. He'v never been in a trance before, but I thought this was how I felt like
Her eyes were glowing like fiery embers, beaming deathly daggers
Indeed love is like solitude that meet to protect and help.
