I WILL GET BACK TO YOU!

                   I WILL GET BACK TO YOU!
      As someone into a business or the other. You probably sell something and need people's patronage and you get a customer who you have discussed business with, obviously, that has got your hope really high and at the end of discussion, all you hear is "I will get back to you".
     I know how that statement feels, it downs the business owner's spirit most of the time, especially, a just starting business. The seller's spirit, soul and body will definitely be there and he/she might keep on marketing to you holding on to you getting back to him/her. We are different individuals and how we take statements varies. Some might not count the statement so serious, they are probably used to it, but, some would actually take it to heart and really expect you to keep to your words. And, as long as you repeat that statement to them, they keep marketing their businesses to you.
    Customers and clients, there are actually better ways to put this that won't make these business owners get discouraged. I sometimes love being blunt, like, just make this person know you might not actually get back so that their minds won't really be there. You can just tell a seller you would let him/her know IF you would purchase anything and, that might actually ease their minds a bit. It is better than you saying you would get back to them. And, if truly you'd get back to them, actually get back to them. Purchase something no matter how little. It might actually take a while, but, do not make it too long a while. If you know you wouldn't get back, don't say you would get back. 
      The same thing applies to employers of labor, the HR departments especially. When you get applicants' CV or, you interview them and, at the end, your statement to them is "we will get back to you", knowing fully well that their minds will be there, be straightforward. If you know you wouldn't employ them, give them an ultimatum of the duration of days they should expect a feedback, probably, five days; after the fifth day, I bet they wouldn't expect feedbacks again. If you would get back to them, really, then, get back to them. Even if it is a rejection, they would accept it and take their minds off it.
To pros and cons of what I have been saying is that, get back to whosoever you have promised to get back to or, find a better way of putting it without getting their hopes so high.

A JANITOR; A CEO, TREAT THEM WITH THE SAME RESPECT!

       There is this short story about a janitor at a fish factory (cold room), you know most of the times, people might just walk into a company or an establishment without reckoning the security personnel on duty, but, this story actually shook me, so to say. There was this lady who works in a cold room, any time she resumes duty in the morning, she greets the janitor, and, when she is about leaving, she does the same thing.  She does this virtually every day. Being the only worker who actually reckons with the janitor, it makes the janitor feel human as well, he feels valued as a human. So, there was this day she resumed duty, she did the same thing, made the janitor feel that same importance he had always felt, but, there was something unusual about that particular day; there was no one to say good night to him at 6 pm. He was certain something was wrong that evening because he actually got a good morning. He racked his brain for a while, and then, he decided to check all offices.

A PIECE OF ADVICE TO SINGLE PEOPLE

There are so many single persons out there who believe it is, or, it might be over for them already. Being single is not and never plagues that the society has made it look like. A question I would like to ask you as a single person is, while you are single, what are you doing? Are you just waiting with no angle to be aligned to? The description of a waiter I will make will simply be that of eateries. Waiters and waitresses at eateries. Waiters at eateries and bars basically wait to serve customers, they don’t just wait for nothing, and they serve real packages to customers. Now, the point I am driving at is, while you wait, serve. Don’t wait for nothing, you have to be in a position to be found, you need to be met halfway.  Be in alignment as you serve. As a waiter never serves customers unreal packages, as a single that is waiting as well, be real; don’t be an unreal package. You just can’t sit and expect the other person to come meet you exactly where you are, catching up with him/h

Something to hold onto as the year begins.

       The year 2020 has come to an end, and, every one of us knows where we are today against all odds. If not for anything, we thank God for life. We do not know what 2021 has in stock for us all, we all just hope for the best, but, as we hope for the best, are we working towards being the best? We all don't need to become the best in a day, but, do we have plans ahead of us? Truly, we planned for so many things in 2020, and, probably, if not all, just a few of this plan of ours came to the fore. It was even during the ups and downs of 2020 that some people realized they have opportunities in them that they never knew.      There's so much to achieve when we plan and set a goal. A goal is deeper than just mere hope, a goal is beyond physical thinking, it's beyond faith, you can't be a man of faith, and not set goals. Oh! Come 2021, I want to do this, I want to do that; take your plans beyond physical thinking, make them into goals, and, discipline, yourself on how to
