Beat from discussion

Any small thing can just crush the merriness out of a discussion. Today, when I was discussing Lexus with my team, we had our bottlenecks; but, with mutual encouragement, we overcame each one of them. We had a lot of fun: we came up with more than eight logo sketches, and most importantly, we had fun with it. Our ship was moving forward at a satisfactory speed. Yet, when we decided to put the sketches to test, we realized that they did not produce the effect we had expected. Adding to the fuel, another team member who arrived late gave us a tremendous "reality check" (I use this word to try not to let my emotions cloud me, but I don't know if using this word is in fact biased by the effect of trying to avoid clouded judgment). There was a "takeover." All our ideas were discarded without the slightest hint of approval or encouragement for our effort and our three hour wasted. There was a tyranny: we were forcefully steered in the way this member wanted and any effort to pull back was ignored. Honestly, I was disappointed. That's not how a team is supposed to work. Everyone was disappointed. Our team spirit was recalibrated back to zero. But, life goes on. The rest of us pulled ourselves together to continue on. When we did so, this member simply ignored us and started drawing sketches of his own (what he told us not to do or in fact should not have done; he did what he told us to refrain from doing). Once we went into deeper discussion of our report framework, he simply went to sleep. I simply felt beat. I still feel beat. Oh, Lord! Help me! Don't let me explode. God, have your way in me.
