On tranparency in relationships
Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010I just got a follow up call from one of the dentists in town. They wanted to follow up with me on the matter discussed 2009. New year, new problems, new opportunities. In any case, I was very pleased with the call but had to reject.
The most surprising thing was that I know that I will have to reject and I picked up. This was a feeling unfamiliar to me. I tend to feel bad when I have to reject, which sometimes results in me not picking up the phone. However, this time, knowing who it was, I picked up the phone. I rejected.
In the recall of the conversation I realized that I felt good by telling the truth. The lady on the other side was very pleasant and understanding. I now commit to answer the phone even if I know I have to reject.
