It's hard to get it out of your mouth if your ego is as high as the sky. But guess what? It might just turn out to be the best thing that you've done if you just say that one simple word.
You could have saved a friendship (or any relationship).
You could have been more well-liked (just because you say the right thing at the right time).
You could have brighten up someone's day being that one of the very few who are willing to say sorry when they know it's their fault. (actually directing this more to salespersons)
Well, you could have made many more positive things happen. It's limitless.
Saying sorry doesn't have an age limit.
You can be as old as 99 years old, making a mistake and you still have to say that simple word even if it's to a person decades younger than you are.
You can be a parent but when you've done something wrong, you gotta say sorry to your kid.
You can be a customer and done something wrong, you again have to say sorry to the salesperson despite "customer is always right".
It's like we don't say sorry enough these days. Of course, I'm not saying we should say sorry every single time over the littlest or the stupidest things. Say it but at the right timing.
Maybe if people didn't value their ego so much. The world would probably be a better place.
