Just a thought...

Hopefully I won't step on any toes with this post, but I am going to point out a potential hazard I have noticed in our group. Groupthink is what I'm referring to. I have noticed in several of our meetings, that everybody seems to go along with the same ideas without much thought. It could be that we all just agree about a lot of things. More likely, I think, is the idea that people are just going with the idea they think the group likes because it is easier than challenging it. While this does wonders to speed up a meeting, it also causes us to miss opportunities to do something better. I think we should be giving our best effort in order to have a better outcome from our project, both for the Boys and Girls Club, and our grades. If we all, including myself, are willing to speak up when we think there is a better option, the potential improvements that can result outweigh a few extra minutes of discussion.
