I supposed that you must have seen or witnessed individuals be it in basketball, football, soccer or any other sports who scores heavily but hardly wins.  Or as in any business, individuals who sells heavily compromising profit margins as well as other expenses and cost of sales.

These are actually individuals who would rather go for personal records than the whole team winning or as in business individuals who are more focused for personal glory rather than the whole company succeed.  They compromised winning.

But the thing is that there is a huge difference between scoring and winning.  If you score heavily, that does not necessarily mean your team wins. Likewise, if you sell the highest, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you are in a highly successful organization. Because winning has a whole lot of aspects to consider - teamwork, trust, relationship, development, communication among others.

Below are some of the aspect areas to consider if you want to win:

Winning is all about complementing each other that for every weakness that you have becomes someone else’s strength.  Ergo, that being said, shows how a Michale Jordan, one of the world’s famous athlete needs Dennis Rodman to do the rebounding of basketball.

It needs constant communication to share ideas and resolve issues, and most importantly to allow contingencies solution.  You may be performing, but you can even do better when you communicate.  Take for instance being in a situation of a hopeless deal.  That deal might be saved if you had begun to communicate about the issue with your colleague. Isn’t it?

Try doing these stuffs in your own little way so you can start to win.  Set aside personal records so as not to compromise winning.  I would like to hear your thoughts about winning and scoring and how they differ from each other.
