People want to be lead

People hate making decisions that aren't easy. Apparently I can't stand the awkwardness or tension that lingers for even a second or two when everyone looks around to see who's going to take charge and make the decision or take action.

I want to be that person that does. In the past few days I HAVE been that person (not full of myself I swear). I had to push myself in my mind to do it but I guess there are baby steps if I want it to be something innate, something that's instinctive.

Just some reminders so when I forget:
1. You took charge when someone suggested that we should get captain to check that we were doing the pictures right
2. You took charge...a lot in dealing with some project decisions. That guy might be smart but he really doesn't like making even the slightest difficult decision
3. Language project, you definitely volunteered to be the leader first when that chick asked who wants to be the leader and everyone looked around awkwardly.

Take charge.
