You will make your greatest strides in success when you enlist
the power available from cooperative sources. Many success
mentors speak of this. Mark Victor Hansen calls it "the
Aladdin Factor." Napoleon Hill calls it "the Power of the
Mastermind."
"Great discoveries and improvements invariably involve the
cooperation of many minds. I may be given credit for having
blazed the trail but when I look at the subsequent
developments, I feel the credit is due to others rather than
to myself," wrote Alexander Graham Bell.
Ben Stein said, "Personal relationships are the fertile soil
from which all advancement, all success, all achievement in
real life grows."
A few days ago, I was speaking with a director from a large
American corporation. We were discussing his journey up the
ladder of corporate success - where he had started, how he had
landed into his current line of work, and how he progressed
along the way.
This man assured me that it was not through his own know-how.
He was willing to confidently take on any project assigned
him, whether he knew anything about it or not. He would
assess the project, determine what skills were needed to
produce a certain result, and investigate, through
word-of-mouth, who was most skilled in the company in that
field.
He would then approach this person, asking for help. He
assured me that these folks always cooperated
whole-heartedly. This gentleman helped build his company into
the success that it is today due to his forward-thinking
abilities and his skill at enlisting the cooperation of
others. He says it is always with others that we attain our
goals.
Do not feel that you are "using" others when you ask for
help. Charles Dudley wrote, "It is one of the beautiful
compensations of this life that no one can sincerely try to
help another without helping himself."
