Teamwork makes the dream work. Working with (not for) people helps you find your strengths and balance out your weaknesses. Collaboration is needed every time we exchange energy, conversations, and experiences with people. If we both meet at 50% we'll equally do our part to honor ourselves and see where our collaboration takes us.
Collaborating with different people helps you learn about diversity in skills, experiences, and humans while also helping you honor yourself and learn who you want to spend time with. Once you know who you are, and what you want, it's easier to collaborate with people who add value to your life experience.
Stop being selfish and gives us, you.
