We, humans, pride ourselves on strength, independence, and self-reliance. It fuels both our ego and our confidence. But the truth is that most of us are ill-equipped to travel the success journey alone.

We’re all going to have moments when it won’t be possible to stand by ourselves and do things alone. And in those moments, it’ll be wise to let go of our “lone ranger” mindset and know that it’s okay to lean on others.

Whether it be our personal or professional life, we all need others in order to achieve the magnificent success we truly desire and deserve. Plus, what good are our accomplishments if we have no one around us to celebrate them with?

Happy and harmonious relationships play a significant role in achieving lasting success. As Napoleon Hill explains, “You may choose to work with others, you may ignore them, or you may choose to work against them, but the greatest successes in life come to those who work harmoniously with others. When your personal goals coincide with those of another, not only does the power of your combined labors benefit you, but such cooperation also creates a synergistic effect that allows you to achieve far more than the simple sum of your individual efforts. Know that friendship freely given and gratefully received is one of life’s greatest gifts.”

Whenever the situation demands, it’s absolutely fine to allow yourself to be vulnerable and reach out for support and assistance from the people around you. It’s not a sign of weakness, but of strength.

Never forget, all extraordinary success is founded upon the unwavering cooperation of other people.
