Decisions, decisions!
Has there ever been a time in your life when you were left to make an impacting
decision on something MAJOR? All eyes were on you and you couldn't bail out
because your responsibility dictated that YOU had the final say. The ball was in
your court!
Problem: Even if you're
passionate about a cause, the execution of a decision you make may not bear the
assertive boost needed to execute it, in its entirety. That’s because your
demeanor is passive, with a tad of aggression. You generally hesitate to make
'big' decisions for fear of failing, hurting someone's feelings, much less making an
'unpopular' call.
With that being said,
how did you get yourself into this situation? Well, as you think about the Chrono-logicality
of events, you realize the initial concept was yours; you put it out there, so
your counterparts just ‘ran’ with it. Talk was cheap, but now those ideas have
begun to come into fruition. The next step is to execute and finalize what YOU
had started. Now you've got to step up your game, make a call or foul-out!
Realization: Somebody
believed in you, "Now what?” You started this and you've got to progress
to the next level. HOW do you muster-up the courage to pick up the ball and run
with it... or just pass?
Answer: Don’t EVER make
a decision hastily, no matter if you’re under the pressure of a time frame or
talking with the ‘head of heads,’ make a carefully thought out, and logical
call.
You won’t regret it!
Blessings,
