Training Points
Why Apologise?
- Acknowledge the wrong doing
- Allows you and the other person to move to a situation of healing
- Decreases heart rate, blood pressure and breathing normalises
- Lets people know you have heard and understood them
Why is Apologising So Difficult?
- People feel vulnerable to being sued or legal action
- Emotional stamina
- "I'm sorry this happened" even though it's not my fault, eg computer crashing at the bank
- Admitting you're wrong is hard
How to Apologise:
- Don't make excuses
- Don't offer the cheap, quick, easy apology
- Don't rush the apology without being ready to listen to the other person
- Don't apologise then do the same thing again
- Don't expect everything to be back to normal straight away
- Do apologise as quickly as possible
- Do give the person the opportunity to vent their anger
- Do let the person know you understand why they're angry
- Do take corrective action while saying sorry
Forgiving Others:
- If you don't forgive you're holding on to a lot of anger and resentment
- Understanding this is important - or it can be very damaging to you both physically and mentally
- Take the grievance less personally
- Look at the offender in a more positive light
