The Top 10 Movies That Promote Teamwork


"Don't you realize? The next time you see the sky, it'll be over another town. The next time you take a test, it'll be in some other school. Our parents, they want the best of stuff for us. But right now, they got to do what's right for them. Because it's their time. Their time! Up there! Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here." -- Mikey (The Goonies)


TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK

Whether you are an introvert, extrovert, or ambivert -- like it or not, teamwork is one aspect within our lives that isn't going anywhere. Teamwork is a term that we all need to better familiarize ourselves with. You might be thinking: "--but, I can do these things on my own. I'm independent. I don't need the help of others". But, you do! We all do!

While it may seem exhausting to be apart of a team, it can actually be quite refreshing. Teamwork means collaborating with others who have a different perspective and insight into the world who can help you attain a specific goal in a way that you never would have initially imagined. When done properly, teamwork can be miraculous!

Still not convinced?


THE BENEFITS OF TEAMWORK INCLUDE:
  • Increase of Efficiency
  • Boost in Creativity
  • Providing the Necessary Support (Personal/Group)
  • Encourages Risk-Taking
  • Double and Triple the Brain Power (Increase in Speed)
  • Blend of Strengths
  • Builds Trust
  • Teaches Conflict
Whether you choose to agree or disagree with the list, I am hoping that the list provided with help you see teamwork in a different light.
So, without further ado, I present a list of:

THE TOP 10 MOVIES THAT PROMOTE TEAMWORK:

1.

2.
Marvel's The Avengers (2012)


3.

4.

5.

6.

10.

Okay, before you start bringing out the pitch-forks, let me explain.

There is a reason as to why I have chosen such an interesting mix of movie genres. From animation to fantasy, each movie showcases the theme of teamwork. While obvious, this isn't all -- there is much more than teamwork that is at play. 

Every single movie chosen deals with individuals who have been forced to work together and become a team. All characters start on the opposing sides of one another never truly seeing eye-to-eye. However, they learn to set their differences aside and accept that working in a team can be favorable.

We have to trust one another!

While these movies may showcase how teamwork works, it also teaches the viewer's themselves a lesson: we often work better with others by our side even when we think being alone is the best option.


Remember, teamwork makes the dream work!

Animated Movies To Help You Cope With The Loss of a Loved One

"Know that I'm with you the only way that I can be. Until you're in my arms again. Remember Me" -- Miguel (Coco) Losing someone you care about most deeply is never easy to come to terms with. Even if they aren't gone yet, you have to essentially prepare for the inevitable. While I am not one for being vulnerable with my feelings, it is only fitting with this blog post. I have been close with my grandmother for 20 years. We have never been apart. When I was little, we (meaning my parents and grandparents) moved from Livermore to Stockton. While I have no recollection of this move, I do remember my childhood home. The small single story-home with a two-car garage. The greenery which spanned across the front. Cars occasionally passing by as we overlooked an empty field (which was now the soccer field of  Weston Ranch High). So many memories: good and bad have occurred within that house. Bringing home our first and only St. Bernard puppy. Breaking my arm at ...

The Netflix Series That Will Help Reorganize Your Life

"Just because you dispose of something does not mean you give up past experiences of your identity" -- Marie Kondo Hello, Hello! Wow, it seems like only yesterday when we were all enjoying the holiday season. Baking cookies. Sitting around the fireplace. Spending time with our loved ones. Now, we are in the middle of March. How did that happen?!? Well, for me. This week is very dear to me. Not only is it my Spring Break, but we are officially 12 days away from the first day of Spring (March 20th). I cannot wait! I've had enough with the chilly weather, bring on the sunshine!  For most of us, I am sure we are all familiar with that one time out of the year where we decide: "hmm … you know what? I'm free today. How about reorganizing my life. It's looking a little messy". That time is the start of Spring Cleaning. Sure, we do clean in the Winter too -- but what is so special about Spring Cleaning? Why do we feel the need to clean just beca...
