The shoulder of a giant.

Some people are leaders. Some leaders are great leaders. But only some great leaders are teachers. These teachers are giants who shoulder an unenviable amount of responsibility. But they’re the reason why the world learns.

Imagine this scenario:

There’s a group of fifteen people that you deeply care about so much and they’ve all got to all swim across a sea in a race to win an opportunity of a lifetime.
Now, this group comprises:

  • 2 members who were available and participated in the qualifying rounds of the race.

  • 5 members who didn’t participate in the qualifying rounds due to emergency commitments to family.

  • 4 new members in the group

  • Yourself

Everyone currently on the team is available, capable and eligible for this swim. Here is an opportunity for growth for everyone, and everyone has a fire in them to get to the other side.

Now, there is a way to get people there- immunity pins. These immunity pins give the swimmer a boost of extra energy to swim across the ocean and get to the other side faster than the rest of the group. But there’s a catch. There are only 3 immunity pins in total. Everyone has a case to get the pin.

Who would you give it the immunity pins to?

Also, this is more than just a team. This is family, and one mistake would unleash the green-eyed monsters of envy.

Forget the devil and deep blue sea. The decision-maker is caught between the devil and the devil. Heartbreak is inevitable.

What will you do?

On an everyday basis, this is the kind if responsibility that the shoulder of a giant bears. Its worth watching and learning what happens.
