Are you stuck in D.A.D.?

Many people make decisions by identifying a problem or need, evaluating options, choosing the decision, and announcing it. Then spending a lot of time defending the decision. This is sometimes called the D.A.D. approach to decision-making. D.A.D. stands for: Decide - Announce - Defend. I'm sure you've been there! It can feel terribly frustrating, and disappointing, to find that people are upset with a decision that you spent considerable time and prayer to develop. Not to mention all of the energy it took!
