Imagine that you are stuck on an island with only a handful of other people. ![[image of guy alone on an island]](http://www.blakejennelle.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/guy-alone-on-an-island2.jpg "[image of guy alone on an island]")
These people are very different from you. And you don’t like some of them.
Maybe their names are Gilligan, Mary Ann and the Skipper. Or maybe they are your boss, your competitor, the loudmouth who hogs all the credit and your ex-friend who gossips about you behind your back.
Sure, you don’t have to get along with them. You can choose to avoid one, not talk to another and form an alliance with whoever feels the same way.
But it’s going to make life on that little island lonely and complicated. More importantly, it’s going to be hard to get the things you need.
Because the loudmouth knows how to waterproof your hut. The competitor knows how to find water when it hasn’t rained in weeks. And your ex-friend has the savvy to rally the other two to help.
