decision making

so after the first 10 minutes of observing how the discussion went, i quickly sat back and became "avoidance". it was a disasater, the face that it needed 100% consense made it very difficult to decide something. so i figure i would just sit back and let everyone else do the fighting and just participate in the last 10 - 20 minutes if the result doesnt satisfy me. however it ended up ok except for the essay part. but just as i wanted to say something, the couple infront of me was yelling out "no we are not changing the essay, no way!" so i just gave up and sat back since it needed 100% consense. i remember that close to the end when we voted one of the guy was disagreeing and we couldnt get 100%. then one of the girl said "he doesnt matter, we dont need him", i was so stunned by how stupid that sounded. i was thinking" oh my god, of coz we need him, we do need 100% afterall, now he is never gonna change after you piss him off". if i can choose to do this decision making again i would still be avoidance because i wouldnt wanna get into that mess, the trouble wasnt worth it.

that eggcellent idea!~

Step 1. Define your goals and objectives - completed
we all knew what the goal was and what we have to accomplish

Step 2. Determine your resources and current status vis-á-vis objectives - completed
we figured out what resources we have and was someone clear of our member's ability

Step 3. Develop several alternative strategies - incomplete
we tried to make several designs. but it all evolved around the same concept blueprint. maybe we were limited by the first idea...i guess.

Step 4. Make a tactical plan - incomplete
we had our design, and it looked well and al on the paper. however, we lack the ability to put it together in real life, we over esteemate our ability to craft, turned out that none of our memebers has the ability to craft well.

Step 5. Implement the plan and evaluate results - incomplete
the final product looked horrible because we couldnt craft it like the design on the paper. though it still had some of the concept left. i am not sure what we could do with such horrible crafting skill but we finished the prodct anyway. we never know if the egg would break in the basket becoz it hit the edge and splashed... we had the supposingly most calm person to do it though... i guess we forgot that we should find a person who can aim from top instead.
