Could you please check this sentence, especially red parts? You can change the sentence in a more concise one if you want. Thanks.
At the end of the day, every group found that focusing on its/their own need would not promise its/their success; win-win situation should be dominant.

Ultimately, each group found that focusing on its particular needs did not ensure success. Therefore, choosing a win-win situation should be the dominant approach.

Thanks, friends.
I exactly mean that at the end of the day something happened and the second day was started in a different way.
I like both sentences, and I see the difference between a native english person and non-native

HI Davoodl,
I'd suggest saying "At the conclusion of the first day," because "at the end of the day" is an over-used expression that means "eventually," and readers may not at first realize that you meant it literally.
Don't be discouraged. A lot of native speakers have trouble constructing good sentences too! Yours will read more and more fluently the more you write.
