		<description><![CDATA[Assembling a team can be challenging when team members have different backgrounds, unique personal agendas, and unrelated methodologies.  If it is difficult to get busy people to sit at the same table, it can be much more challenging to get a team emotionally centered.  Here are 5 Cool Ideas to get teams started. 

5 Cool Ideas to Get Teams Started 

1.  A meaningful quote can provide solidarity and purpose. 

We know that a picture is worth a thousand words, but what is a word worth?  Well, a word can be invaluable if it helps center a team on a theme.  A special word can unify and educate.  Introduce a word every day and over time, people will increase their vocabularies.  Share a combination of words like a quote or a song lyric to cultivate passion and a sense of team spirit. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everything we do has rewards and consequences.  You can control various forms of this pleasure and pain if you understand the linkage between thoughts, emotions, behavior and reward.

Thoughts, for example, usually lead to emotions.  Emotions drive behavior.  Behavior determines reward.  Do you have complete control over your own thoughts, emotions and behavior? Here are 5 Cool Ideas for being in control.

1.  Own your own stuff and be in control.  Miguel Ruiz writes in his book The Four Agreements that we need to control our own thoughts and emotions.  When we own our own stuff, we can limit others’ control of our stuff.

2.  Own your thoughts. Controlling your own thoughts is based on the concept of free will, which means that you are responsible and accountable for your own thinking.  Not to put thoughts in your head, but this seems like a “no-brainer,” doesn’t it?]]></description>
