Sometimes I come across something that is just flat out genius and I marvel at how simple that thing is. Rewind, for example, to a trip to the Summer Shack a few months back. One of the people I was with ordered lobster and naturally was given a lobster bib. This bib, unlike any other I had seen before, had a little pouch on the bottom. Such a simple little thing, but so brilliant. Other lobster bibs protect the shirt and sully the pants. Not this one.

Today I was reading a magazine and I came across this.

"... once you recognize who you are and what you do best, you're free to surround yourself with people who are not you and who have different skills. This eases the pressure on you to do it all and simplifies life."

To quote Popeye the sailor man, well blow me down! Those two sentences can be life changing if they are realized. It's such a simple concept, but it's not the culture bred in the world. It's about true team work through different strengths and mutual support, not competition. It's a utopian environment where people thrive off their environment, a positive influence, rather than competition with their team mates and trying to outdo each other, a negative influence in my book. It breeds trust and faith in your team mates, and rather than forcing things to get done it allows them to.

Just. Plain. Brilliant.
