If there is one thing i actually appreciate and love about myself then its self accountability. I am of the idealogy that I dont really have to put blame on others when i could actually do something about it instead. And this has got me to be self relaible and responsible for my actions.
It has taught me what it takes to admit to ones mistakes and take to correction, it has actually made me more of a listener, and a strong decision maker.
Running a business or living as an entreprenuer, you will always see yourself stepping on peoples toes, and most time you will see people stepping on yours, some just do it out of fun, while some do it intentionally. They want to see your reaction to their actions.
To some they see it as a way to test you so as to trust you. In the first place it might be a test then on the long run if you get on their good side then they see you as someone they can trust, but if it went the other way round, they will actually fault you for your mistakes.
There was a time when i had to deal with a customer, he ordered for some fish to be delivered at a certain date, then i asked him for an advance payment so i will be rest assured that he is truly ready for it. He promised me and hammered that i should make sure i dont disappoint him. Okay thats good.
Weeks went by, he didnt even try to turn up nor ask about what he ordered. Then the next moment i got his message saying he needed the goods. I was mad at first, but i had his goods ready. So that wasnt an issue. I supplied it to him then i was about leaving. Then i just had the thought of checking my account before i call his attention to his payment.
