Who was a better team player - Arjuna or Karna

Arjuna asked Krishna, ‘Why is Karna known to be more liberal than me?’

Krishna showed him a mountain of gold and asked Arjuna to give it all to people in a single day. Arjuna, went to the mountain and broke the mountain rock by rock to give to the people. It took him several days to complete it.

Now, the same task was allocated to Karna. He gave all the people the required tools to break the mountain. He asked people to break the mountain and take what ever they wish. Everyone gathered and hit the mountain. They took away what they want and in few hours the entire mountain vanished.

Krishna told Arjuna, ‘You want everything to be done by you. That is why it took you several days. You determined how much is to be given. You didn’t use team work and required tools to break the mountain. Wanted credit for what you are doing. But Karna’s aim was only to break the mountain in a day and distribute it to the people. He used team work, required tools and never claimed the credit of giving it from his hands’.

Leaders never claim the team’s credit, they stand in the front at the time of disaster, use the right team member at the right place, use the right tools and bring the team together to complete a huge task in a short time
