The Rutgers Capoeira Club warming up. |
Politics annoys everyone.
It happens whenever people organize, in different clubs or
groups or affiliations. It’s a necessary evil that contains a lot of discussion
that can easily turn into disputes, which align with arguments if not handled
properly. It’s a pain, but its how people get things down.
Convincing colleagues to follow your lead it a tough gig. Everybody
has their own ideas, plans of execution, and can be stubborn. As one of the
latter, I know it alms my frustrations, and as a leaders, is the best thing to
do for those wanting to contribute.
It’s also one of the better problems to have-- having many people to organize and agree on
things means that your organization is growing. Growth is how all business survive,
and the lack of it shows which ones die. So if you aren’t dealing with those politics,
you’re growing to the point when you do.
I remember being a part of the Rutgers
Capoeira Club leadership, arguing over what we should do, how we do it, and how
to convey the information to our mestre. You can’t figure bonds that
develop doing those meetings, and loathe them while you’re in it. Arguments can
leave each member discouraged when they got back to the dorm at night.
I can’t help but miss the opportunities
to have meetings like that.
