Tender An Unreserved Apology


Good day people. How are you doing?

 

It's interesting to learn how autocratic some of us are. I find it interesting that such people expect others to stop feeling hurt immediately just because we tendered a half-hearted apology (filled with self-justification) YET we expect to be given the space to air our feelings if we are the aggrieved party. It still boils down to #Empathy...

 

When you hurt a loved one, you ought to apologize without trying to justify your actions. That thing you called an apology is probably similar to what a defense attorney would present in court - absolutely no admission of guilt. YOU are tearing vital relationships apart with such an attitude.

 

Yesterday, I realised as I was arguing with a client that tendering an unreserved apology to him would take nothing from my person and win him over. We had been at loggerheads for a while. I literally saw him melt.

 

Do your relationship a favour, tender an unreserved apology today and watch tensions dissolve.
