Team Day

Why We Train Together As A Team

(From Mark Divine's Unbeatable Mind)

Team training builds Kokoro because:
•    
We hold ourselves to a higher standard when training with others
•    
Our teammates also hold us accountable
•    
We are motivated by the mighty effort of our teammates and want to match it
•    
We are encouraged to push harder and succeed by our teammates
•    
We are empowered when we take our minds off our own petty issues, helping our team succeed instead
•    
We are reminded of our own faults and limitations when we see our teammates struggle and fail. Then when we struggle and fail we do not shy from receiving help
•    
A team’s Kokoro, or Team Spirit, will buoy our own personal spirit. We draw strength and courage from a team firing on all cylinders
