Within the bounds of morality and common sense, the key to success when you work with people is helping them get what they want. Find out what others want and show others how working or cooperating with you benefits them. To help others get what they want, you have to think as they do, ask them questions, and see the world the way they see the world. To be successful with others or to lead others you have to put yourself in their shoes. When you are selfish and filled with your ego, you think only of yourself instead of others. Truly, being unselfish is the key to success in every area of life, especially when working with others. When others find out you do want to help them get what they want, they will regard you with esteem and they will value you. Admittedly, others will be selfish. However, by finding out what others want and helping them get it you have great potential in leading them. Most often, leadership failures occur because of selfishness. Good leaders are typically unselfish people.
