i was just mentioning earlier last week on how people should either act on things that are within their control or accept/walk away if there is nothing they can do. there is really no point in harping on the same thing like n times! and it is such an irony that i witnessed this exact scenario unfolding at work.
gosh, maybe its my pet peeve or im just impatient. just don't get it when one goes on in circles on how things shouldn't be like this or like that. yes i got you but what i don't understand was there was no offer of a constructive next step, neither do you want to act upon a proposed next step.
and case in point is its so much harder getting a "messenger" to help you convince another when he/she may not be in the best position to do so given their convictions aint as strong as yours. wouldn't it be easier to take the matters in own hands and resolve it yourself when you have no reason in the world to stop you from doing so. maybe im just action oriented but sitting in a room and throwing all these feedback/comments around NOT at the right audience wont move things!
ok enough of ranting.
so what did i do? i tried to act within my control by volunteering to pass the message back to the intended audience and ended up not doing a fantastic job either.
well, we all have to learn somewhere somehow i guess. this is my learning opportunity though im not exactly 100% excited the situation it arose from. :P
