In the story, at a small African village in the country of Ghana, an old man lives with his seven sons. They were handsome, but they argued all day long. One day the old man died, the brothers argued about how to divide the heritage. The chief told them they need to turn threads into gold, if they succeed, they would get the heritage. If not, the heritage will be divided among the poor people, and they become beggars. They agreed to weave a special cloth and sell it to the king for a bag of gold. Then they got the heritage and taught the villagers how to weave these special cloth.
Teamwork is strong, just like the African proverb “sticks in a bundle are unbreakable”. We need teamwork to make better things than we do ourselves. The boys work together, so they weave this beautiful multicolored cloth. They work together so the weaving time will be shorter. If they don't work together, they will not weave this cloth, so the heritage will be given to the poor people, and they become beggars. The boys work together so the cloth will be sold, and the heritage would be theirs. We need teamwork to avoid mistakes, share opinions, and eventually be great.
Shearing can help people, it can make both of us better. Sharing can help people's problems. The boys shared their weaving techniques to the villagers, soon the villager was famous for its cloth. And made a chance to make everyone rich. If the brothers don't share they will be rich. They shared their techniques to the poor people, so the poor people can be richer. If we share our things with others, we can solve or help others' problems.
With intelligence, we know the potential meaning of words. Not only we need to analyze others' words, but also we need to create beauty. Intelligence is the thing we need to make the thing better. The brother knows their father won't let them be beggars, so they figure out they need to weave the thread, and sell it for gold. Also, if the brothers don't know what pattern is the best beside another, The king won't buy it because it doesn't look great, even the texture is smooth. They know how to put one pattern to another so it will be great. The brothers are intelligent so they know their fathers meanings and use art, so they can be sold to the king. We need intelligence in our lives and work, so it is the most important part for people.
With intelligence, sharing and teamwork a group can become a company. If every person in the company is intelligent, shares opinions with each other, and has the mind of working together, it can form a great company. If the nation's governor has these three, the nation will be powerful and become a peaceful country.
