The Words Everyone Dreads

OK, brace yourselves – it’s time for a painful truth.

We’ve all been there.

Sitting with that special someone and hearing those words.

“It’s not you, it’s me.”

Easy words to say.

And an even easier way of trying to make the other person feel a little bit better about the pain they’re about to endure.

But here’s the difficult bit.

Sometimes it will be you.

You may have said, done or felt the wrong thing, and things just aren’t going to work out.

It’s no different in business than it is in any other kind of relationship.

So face up to the facts and accept that, according to the law of averages, sometimes it IS you.

And then do something about it.
