Habit 6: Synergize
Synergy is achieved when two or more people work together to
create something better than either could alone. Through this habit teens learn it doesn’t have
to be “your way” or “my way” but rather a better way, a higher way. Synergy
allows teens to value differences and better appreciate others. Synergy is the
reward, the delicious fruit you’ll taste as you get better at living the other
habits, especially thinking Win-Win and seeking first to understand. Learning
to synergize is like learning to form V formations with others instead of
trying to fly solo in life. You’ll be amazed at how much faster and farther you
will go. Synergy doesn’t just happen. It’s a process. You have to get there.
And the foundation of getting there is this: Learn to celebrate differences.
A good band is a great example of synergy. It’s not just the
drums or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist; it’s all of them together
that make up the “sound”. Each band member brings his or her strengths to the
table to create better than each could alone. No instrument is more important
over another, Just different.
Choose the Right
