habit 6
TRANSCRIPT
Synergy happens when a group of people work
together to come up with a more effective solution than just trying to solve it on their own. It creates a
better, higher way to achieve something
No one person in the group is better or
stronger than other. Everybody is different
but each person contributes in an
effective way.You have strengths some other person doesn’t and
they have some you don’t.

Last year in my P.E. class there was this Chinese girl who was new. There was rarely anybody at my school that was Chinese or any other race rather than
Caucasian. So everybody ignored her because she was different, they didn’t make fun of her, but didn’t accept her. We just, tolerated her.
Celebrate!

SummaryHabit 6 is all about synergy. It explains that you
can achieve more together than apart. Also, differences among us all is an effective addition
to creating the best solution to a problem or project. We have to celebrate those differences, not pretend they don’t exist or criticize others
for not being exactly like you. Synergy is everywhere and we need to be apart of it. It helps us find new and more efficient ways to accomplish things. There is an action plan in
order to get to synergy and find the best solution possible. You first define the problem,
then you both tell your ideas or ways, brainstorm to come up with better ideas. Then
figure out the best solution.
