I don’t get it, to be honest, but it’s here, and it’s happening, and I guess I have to deal with it now.
It started off as a decision. And I should have heeded the warnings. But, no, I didn’t, and now I’m stuck dealing with something I shouldn’t have to. It should have been resolved a while ago, and if I had done what my gut was telling me, I wouldn’t be in this predicament right now. But… ta da?
I’ve done it over the phone. Over text. Over Facebook message. No, it’s not what you think it is. Gutter brain, get off my blog. It’s an argument, something very real that I’ll have to deal with tomorrow.
As a leader, I guess you have several things you have to deal with.
- Stability. You can’t say one thing and then say another.
- Balance. You have to keep your cool.
- Firmness. You have to agree fully with everything you’re saying, even if it’s 2AM and you’re seeing llamas outside your window.
Some people don’t quite get that, and I don’t see why they should lead. I’ve been a follower in the past, and I know what I like and don’t like from a leader. They’re the same things that make an argument (discussion, debate, etc.) win. If you look like you aren’t at your wit’s end with something, you’ll be fine with it. Right?
I have a feeling what I’m doing tomorrow will work. I’m still unsure, though, about how I’m going to present it. Carefully, check. But I get kind of passionate about arguments. And with two coming at me right in the face tomorrow, what am I supposed to do?
Let’s take it as it comes, I guess. It’s better than worrying about it now.
