Commitment and and a cooperative

[maxx50]

I know Guys year this all the time from woman .. I want a guy that can commit
W ell when you are n a business with some one commitment to the business and the vision of you and your partners is the most important thing .. or else it will fail.
I know i love to be independent.. it is my nature to want to do what i want to do when i want to do it and have no boss over me .. but some time i need a boss so i can get a job started and finished .. and i can't do it on my own .. That is where a cooperative come in .. when you have a vision or project that you can;\'t do on you own .. you need partners.. that can help with the organising , the financing and the doing the work to make an income.
Even though we can make an income for ourselves with out partners when it come to wanting to be part of something that can make a difference in our camunity and full fill a vision or a need that we may fine will benefit us and other then we have to commit to this new partnership . .
When you belong to a cooperative then you have an equal responsibility to help make it .. work .. because you are having a benefit from your associated with this group and that means you have to dedicate a certain amount of time or money to make sure this project woks even if it take away from your other independent work Making sure that you give that time every day or every week . that is needed to show your true commitment is the only way to be sure that some thing will work..
Because no business needs some that give and those that only take.. If on the other hand you want the benefits and take the cream from the top for your self .. with out waning to truly commit your self to something ..Then don't expect the business to succeed.. every one's equal commitment in time and energy is what is needed .. If you are not all ways willing to give that ,then you should not be in business with any one else ..
We are all individuals with are on needs and quarks.. but we have a need for others also , and a desire to help make things better . that is why we some time jump on board a dream an idea .. that we think will make that different in our lives and the world we live in.
For all those that have that dream I all ways wish the best . and may everyone associated with it have the best intentions.
And this is just as true for any relationship that we as men am women may find our selves in Commitment is a cooperative . of individuals that are willing to give equally to a partnership. , with respect for what each is contributing .

I don't mean this to be nasty, but except for proving you don't have a spell checker, what is the point of this post? Is it supposed to be just generally inspirational or is there an specific person/group/incident in mind?

Both of the above...

. A previous incident is part of the inspiration for this post. In that case i think it was a misunderstanding that got out of hand . BUt also it is something that I have had on my mind . Because i saw an add in craigslist.. Where a woman wanted commitment from a guy she dates.. I felt in some ways they are one and the same.. When it comes to relationships and business partnerships.. perceptions and assumptions .. don't work. Where one may think they are doing every thing they should .. and that everyone is alright with it .. the other may think that their commitment should be different and they are not doing the right things.. That is is what i left out in the previous post .. Communication is the other part of a partnership and relationship.... If the other does not know what you expect and how you think it should be shown .. then how will any one know. Assuming that everyone will do what you think is right .. is not the way it works . I have made that assumption many time my self .. and have got very angry and up set at people when they have not done what i though they should do or treated me in a way that i thought i should be treated.. The opposite has been also true where I have not done the right thing but thought i was..at lest more for my own benefit anyways..which does not go over that well. The me first .. and our self survival instinct is always prevalent in any relationship and partnership It quite often requires a constant effort to consider others first and hopefully it become part of our true nature and that will keep down our self richeous indignation

Maybe this will clarify some points

In business, I think everyone needs to set out clearly defined goals and roles, then both sides know if the other one is not working for mutual benefit or not performing their best. Many companies have job descriptions and long range plans for this purpose, so that it is obvious when someone is not doing their job.

Some friends become business partners, but they don't plan out their business partnership well and if the business venture doesn't work, the fallout affects the friendship. If you do plan to work together, clearly defined roles, goals and job expectations are even more important. When you don't work hard, and work towards your mutual goals, then you are also letting down a friend. They resent how much work they do, when it looks as tho you aren't even making an effort.

Without agreeing on what you are both willing to do and what you both want as your final goal, you may assume that your partner wants exactly what you want. You may be right...but what if you aren't?
You lose both the benefits of the business, and the love of a friend.
