Essential Rules to Keep from Imploding From Within
Never attack an individual personally – stick to the issue at hand
Avoid name calling/ Foul language
Keep your disagreements private (You make yourself look worse when you criticize someone else publicly and most people don’t understand the background for the innuendos)
Appreciate differences – cannot win if everyone is a robot
You can't always have your way
THE team before YOUR team
Choose your battles
Don’t judge others by actions and yourself by intentions
Don’t worry about who gets the credit
KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE GOAL

We are gaining ground.
Now is not the time to shoot ourselves in the foot, or the head.
