“Good teams become great ones when the members trust each other enough to surrender the 'me' for the 'we'.”

Simplified Meaning:

When people work together on a team, they are most effective when they trust each other and put the group's goals above their own personal interests. Imagine a basketball team; if each player only cares about scoring the most points on their own, the team won't do well overall. However, if every player passes the ball and helps their teammates, the whole team can perform much better and win games. This idea can be applied in workplaces, schools, or any group projects where cooperation is key. By focusing on what’s best for the group rather than just thinking about oneself, everyone can achieve more together. Essentially, success comes from valuing teamwork over individual glory.
