Sometimes There Are Hiccups
Every relationship personal or business will have what I like to call a hiccup. Real terminology for hiccups would be an argument, a bump in the road, or a mere disagreement. Just because we have a hiccup with someone or something every once in awhile doesn't mean it is the end of the world, just a disagreement. As for me I sometimes get really bothered by the hiccups that I have with other people or things in my life. Maybe it is because I am a little sensitive at times but there are some people that I would never want to have a hiccup with, just because of who they are and my relationship with them. Recently I had a hiccup with a person with whom I care a lot about personally and on the business level. I have to say it was truly the pits for me and from that one hiccup I learned a tremendous amount about the quality of the relationship that I have with that person and how much a hiccup can actually help and not hurt a situation. Though I worried a lot that day after having a disagreement with this person apart of me knew I had made a mistake with the way I conducted my self in the situation I was in. The next day I made a simple phone call that was truly the water that cured the hiccups. After apologizing for my actions I learned one of the most important lessons from one of the most important people in my life. That lesson being that while conducting business there will sometimes be things that I don't agree with and I will sometimes get frustrated with business situations, but there is a time and place to handle those things that I don't and won't always agree with. I now know even more so than before that the one person I always go to will continue to be there no matter what the frustration at hand is. Nothing has changed and he will not change no matter what the situation. However, he will always be the person that helps balance out the business aspect of my world and make everything better. I feel lucky and blessed to have him in my world as a friend and a business mentor. Hiccups can sometimes hurt and become obnoxiously loud but a mere conversation which serves as a glass of water can cure even the most common cases of hiccups.
