The fishermen's exposure to all kinds of weather made them hardy and fearless. they were accustomed to bear with patience many trying circumstances. they often toiled for hours without success, and yet were always ready to try once more (luke 5: 5; john 21: 3). such men, when impelled by the same spirit as filled their master, became indeed "fishers of men"

Recall that in one condition of the experiment conducted by stasser and titus (1985) about student council president candidates, all group members had access to the same information, and that in another condition, members had unique information that other group members didn't know. in the second (unshared information) condition, the group made a worse decision than in the first (shared information) condition. this occurred because groups seldom can agree on who is most expert. focus discussion on the information that all members know. often ignore dissenting opinions. avoid differences of opinion, given conformity pressures.
