My father was a part-time farmer, so he used to do farming to make a living in his portfolio career, he possessed when I was 10 years old; I grew up in an area that taught me the benefits of cooperation.

I learned to carry out several tasks cooperatively from my father, who used to do farm activities in cooperation with others. I went to boarding school when I was 15; I met a friend there. We used to add up our strengths when performing tasks like homework, so we always got the highest scores in return.

Furthermore, I believe people should learn the positive impact of cooperation and how to cooperate well so that this skill will help them not only in school but also in their future careers.

Yes, I have done this successfully with my two younger brothers, who are 12 and 10 years old, consecutively. The hardest part was to make them work as a team due to the mental rivalries they had with each other. I remember I used to spend all my weekend time with them just to make them feel comfortable sharing their things with each other, but in the end, I succeeded, and they are friendly and cooperative in performing house chores.
