So during my team meeting today my supervisor mentioned to me that I need to be "more assertive with my decisions and less vague with my explainations... it would be good for my career..." she said with a smirk.
I'm sitting here at my desk and just pondering on her comment.
And...well, I must agree with her. I think I don't have the confidence in my answers or my work without her approval or involvement. Even though she is pleased with the work that I've been submitting, I think she wants me to break out of our my bubble and take the lead. As she is giving me greater tasks, I know she wants me to step up and make decisions without or less involvement on her part.
What she spoke is a reflection of my character. The reason I'm so afraid of making decisions cause:
1. The most obvious reason its my head if its a bad decision.
2. I'm not confident.
3. I've never made any major decisions without "lengthy" prayer. (this usually involves days... haha)
So my solution to this:
1. Make a decision (calculated risk) and stick with it
2. Confidence is found in the Lord. (As the Lord has promised to take care of us. Psalm 139)
3. Short or lengthy prayers...doesn't matter. Give it to the Lord, *speak into it and He'll lead the way.
*There is power in our spoken tongue...
"A man's stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth, and from the produce of his lips he shall be filled." (Proverbs 18:20)
Thanks guys for letting me share this with you.
God is working on my character. I'm grateful for His hand intervening in my life.
"I pray that your love for each other will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in your knowledge and understanding. For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until Christ returns. May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation those good things that are produced in your life by Jesus Christ--for this will bring much glory and praise to God." (Philippians 1: 9-11)

Haha...I don't usually hate making decisions on the spot, but I feel I can relate to you in that I hate taking the lead just because I don't want to make a bad move as it would be my head on the line too.
Ah I can sense God wanting to make us into the men we have the potential to be....find strength in the Lord my friend...and may you find confidence in your identity in Him!!!
Don't you have a com sci degree? Isn't that heavily related to Pure Mathematics? Isn't PMAT really vague and abstract?
Advise your supervisor, that such suggestions in the future will cost her, her toes. But be as vague and abstract as possible while you're explaining it.
The only thing I can say is, be a man! Stick up for your lack of assertiveness and vague explanations.
