Personal Narrative Essay About Teamwork

709 Words3 Pages

Have you ever stared in a mirror with tears streaming down, wondering if you should give up? I have. If I hadn’t had my friends with me the whole time, I would’ve probably given up many times. They taught me to to look forwards and bash through the barriers; never stop. Even when I’ve lost my legs. I finally found out how important teamwork was, and the thing that leads to teamwork is friendship. I promised them and did what my heart told me to do. Changes. Who isn’t scared of one? You and I, we all are - it could become so deadly. I was on the field fighting the night before, we stood together, our spirits linked. The next morning, I was stretched out in an anonymous place where I heard people crying, sobbing. I realised that I couldn’t move my legs anymore- not even if somebody poured lava on it. Petrified with my fist clenched. Crying never helped me solve any problems, not even when I was younger. It never helped; there was no pont of it. I am a strong man; the captain of a Football team. All of my friends cheered and cheered for me, I knew we were unified again. I said to coach, “ I’m hurt, not dead “ Eventually, I chose to not give up because I trust them, and love them. Teamwork. A major factor that leads to victory and strength. Every …show more content…

‘’ A quote from Coach Yoast, which describes the forever long journey we had. However, how do you get to the strong side and what does the word ‘strong’ mean? In the dictionary, it says that that word means to be able to withstand force or pressure, and everything is brought back to teamwork again. Anybody would give you the same answer if you asked them, what helps weaken pressure or force. Friends. Real friends are the ones who see sadness in your eyes when everyone else sees the smile on your face. They understand and believe in you when the others go with the majority.

    The reason I am passionate about teamwork is because when people work together they usually share many characteristics. They have a common purpose each member is committed to. They stay involved until the objective is completed. They care about each other: and, in keeping with this, they are concerned about how their actions and attitudes affect each other. They listen to each other and respect all points-of-view, and are sensitive to each other’s needs.

    I found myself good at keeping our teammates at peace with each other, and compromising when we are at a disagreement. We all would agree as to what each person would do, and would come together to find solutions to problems. There were aspects that my teammates excelled in, and other aspects that I excelled in. These differences did not separate us, but instead allowed us to grow closer and work together better. Nobody would try to fight over what they did best, and our tasks would all be completed.

    How one views themselves is not always equal to how others perceive them. Although it is possible to understand certain things from examining the body, how we interpret the body is unique to our own perspective. How our view of the body differs depends on a myriad of factors including race, class, family, and relationships. Each of these variables come together to alter our ideals regarding ourselves and others. In my own case, many of these ideals and how they have changed can be encompassed in the story of my involvement with football.

"Perfect friendship is the friendship of men who are good, and alike in virtue; for these wish well alike to each other qua good, and they are good themselves."

  • Bruce Tuckman's Model Of Team Cohesion

    In any facet of life, whether it is in a relationship, at work, or in school; teamwork plays a critical role in conflict resolution and inevitably success. William James once said, “A chain is no stronger than its weakest link, and life is after all a chain”, regardless of the fact that this notion may hold true for many circumstances in life, it especially holds true with respect to a sports team. From football, to basketball and even soccer, the might of a team working together determines the outcome of any given circumstance. In most cases, there will always be difficult team members, and for the sake of argument, such members are deemed the “weakest” link of a team. Carron, Bray, and Eys (2002) have studied the power that adequate cohesion

  • Friendship Essay: The Meaning Of True Friendship

    1061 Words  | 5 Pages

    What do you think the meaning of true friendship is, maybe it 's knowing that you trust a certain person with any secret or physical object, somebody who would take a bullet for you, or maybe it 's somebody that you 've grown up with all your life. Everybody has their own definition of ¨true friendship.¨ I personally believe that true friendship is when two people can trust each other with just about anything, they let you succeed and fail on your own, but they always help you when it is most important. I dislike it when people say a true friend doesn 't ¨snitch¨ or lets you copy off their paper for test or more important assignment. This shows that they don 't see the other person as a friend, and more as a ¨get out of jail free¨ card. Some people would argue by saying that it shows the person’s willingness to help, but I believe that the only thing you’re helping them with is failing to prepare for responsibilities.
