Making progress

Wow, it seems I’m really making progress. Today we had the first team meeting with the whole team together, even though we had to fall back to chat as some of our internet connections and/or Skype let us down a little bit. But amazing what you can do in 2013 in the virtual reality of internet connections, like building a virtual team. And you may know that ‘people’ and/or ‘team’ and/or ‘teamwork’ and/or ‘Master Mind‘ are not my strongest points, but today I was really proud of myself that, well, I, have somehow managed to build a team around our project Inspiration for Success.

And I’m starting to believe that patience may have been my biggest issue in cooperation with other people as I know I used to push hard and expected employees, team members and who else to put the same amount of effort and time as I do and expected them to be as intelligent as I am or maybe something like expected them to understand straight away what I want without properly explaining what I want or properly instructing them or give them time to think things over and let it sink in.

So things seem to sink in with my team members and they even start taking initiatives and generate ideas that i had never thought of or could have never thought of. So I may be ‘intelligent’, but other people have their own intelligence and I’m certainly not ‘all knowing’, which I think I presumed I was too much.

So wow, what a day, that started very, very bad as I had a very bad mood as i really didn’t know where to go anymore, but that’s another story.

So yes, I’m starting to become very happy with my team and I’m very proud of them! Thanks a lot for being with me, staying with me, Christian, John and Robin. Thanks for your patience, support and the work you all already have done. Thanks!

    Hi Guus,

    thank you, too! I think with “Inspiration for Success” there is finally one more project in the virtual world that is at least trying to add some more useful content and real value to the internet. I believe that we are on a very good way to create something really good. I am looking forward to the next months and what IfS will develop into!
