To be a member in a team or group it’s a certain responsibility from you to discuss any matter with your team members and sort it with one decision. I remember one time when I was in school with a group of Scottish, we were in teenager ages like 16 to 18 years old. We were walking among a big forest and it was like training for us, for our age. And in that time we lose our way. And we were eight members and we stay in under one tree and we began to discuss the matter. And after discussing the matter, all half of us or five of us decide to stay and wait for the others to show us the directions, the right directions. And I gave my opinion, I tell them we have to walk, to continue and look at the stars and the moon at that time because we were walking at the night. And the greatness of stars during the night we can reach our calm. At the end we decided to continue our walking and they give me the leadress mission and I feel that all the responsibility is on me. I have to six hours and don’t file. And I reached the camp after three hours walking during the forest. I feel proud of myself.

To be a member of a team or group comes with a certain responsibility to discuss any matter with your team members and come to a single decision. I remember one time when I was in school with a group of Scottish students; we were teenagers, around 16 to 18 years old. We were walking through a big forest, and it was like training for us at that age. At that time, we lost our way. There were eight members, and we stayed under one tree to discuss the situation. After discussing the matter, half of us, or five of us, decided to stay and wait for the others to show us the right directions. I expressed my opinion, telling them we should walk and look at the stars and the moon since we were walking at night. The beauty of the stars during the night could guide us. In the end, we decided to continue walking, and they gave me the leadership role, which made me feel the weight of responsibility. I had to lead for six hours without failing. I reached the camp after three hours of walking through the forest, and I felt proud of myself.
