Apology made easy..:)
Apologizing isn’t easy especially if it comes from the heart and is meant to be sincere to the core. But if you want to learn the art of apologizing without remorse or showing your weaker side to the people, you can follow the following guidelines...as most politicians do:
“I am sorry that people are offended by what I did or say”
Shift the focus of your actions to the other person’s reaction. Make it sound as if the other person’s thin-skinned sensibilities, out-dated notions of fairness and decency or failure to understand what you meant – not your misdeeds – are the real culprits. You may even get people to apologize “We are sorry, maybe we were overly sensitive”!
“It seems over-work and the socio-political instability of the world is causing a bit of irrationality in people…and I am not an exception.”
No matter where you live, you can point the finger at any number of situations beyond your control: the weather, the economy, the sorry state of the world we live in or even the fickleness of the computer. Not only you have shifted people’s attention away from your failure, you have also made yourself a victim.
“Mistakes were made as there was an error of judgment…regrettably, things turned out not at all as were anticipated.”
Passive voice is the key to apologize like a celebrity.
“I am sure we’re all sorry that things turned out the way they did…but we have more important issues at hand, so shouldn’t we be getting on with things?”
Delay as long as possible and wait how things play out. Maybe people will forget about what you did or someone else will do something even worse. Then you are off the hook. If people keep bringing up your misconduct, offer a quasi-apology.
If you feel remorse, regret or even guilt because of what you have done, make sure no one knows it. Make an apology letter and read it out in a monotone. Avoid eye contact and never reveal a heartfelt emotion.
If you do all that what’s said here, people may complain you haven’t apologized at all. They may feel even more offended than before. But hey, what’s more important, making things right or maintaining your influence?
I received this info well . Thanks
