Just smile - No remorse and no shame afterwards
I just spend a whole day listening presentations from innovation work groups. Great work - excellent stuff ! I participated myself in the same course earlier this year, and as always I was very very passionate about our project like everybody else were too. Today I had a chance to see how it looks from outside of thse passionate project teams. I blushed remembering my own thoughts and keeness to prove that we were right and had found something unique...
Being passionate seems to inherently include large portion of seriouness which eventually brings out some truly funny flavors of our personalities leading later on to "self embarassement" when realising how serious one was and how little credit one gave to all other opinions about the project.
However, better to have a slight embarrasement and later also hopefully good "internal" laughs afterwards than not being passionate on pretty much everything one does ? ?
