Have you ever been in a group situation where there is someone who just doesn't have anything to contribute? Do you ever feel like you are that person? Here's some advice for you. There is no such thing as the 'best' idea, only you can judge what you think the best idea is based on your personal perspective. So when there is a lack of contribution there is no need to fear that you've got 'bad ideas'. The group is simply in need of a different perspective on things. Even if it's just simply sharing your perspective on others ideas, thats still valuable to the team. Team work isn't about a variety of people creating the 'best idea'. It's about allowing a a variety of ideas amongst the best minds. It's about having a platform for different perspectives to be shared on similar ideas. Share your perspective! Try not to think of it as an idea but rather your personal touch on the matter. This might make it easier to not fear any rejection and let yourself say whatever comes to your head, I promise you its valuable simply by being a thought in your head. |
