Speak in Haste – Repent in Leisure

Have you ever been tired, stressed, overworked, cranky, all the above and said something that you knew was not what you really wanted to say, but it was too late to take it back?  I have.  Probably everyone has.  What can you do to try and mend fences?

1. Apologize.  (I really am sorry.  I knew at the time that I was being unfair.  Please forgive me.)
2. Give a brief presentation of what you should have said instead.   (I'm a bit worried that I'm not going meet my deadline this week.  It was hard for me to add this extra project to my day.  I hope you find it very, very helpful.)
3. Hope that you have built a strong enough relationship to deserve forgiveness.
4. Watch your words more carefully in the future.
