The whole is great

Ask a Toddler - Pieces

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Aristotle

It’s true also that each part is painstakingly engineered and crafted to serve its own purpose. We are each individually capable of anything but not everything! That is why collectively we are more powerful. We each bring to the table our own genius. When we collaborate we achieve great things.

There is one factor though that must be present for Aristotle’s wise words to hold true; a common purpose. An unquestionable reason to be. An unequivocal understanding of the part we play in the greater scheme of things. Beyond any reason of doubt. Decidedly what results is trust.

Trusting that each of us will play the part we have to that will make the whole greater than the sum of its parts.
