Excuses Don't Work
All of us
have a tendency to look for excuses when things don’t go our way or when we are
expected to do something, but don’t. But do any of our made up excuses work.
No, everyone knows we are not telling the truth, especially ourselves. In my
business of Property Management in Orange County Ca. I hear excuses all the
time, especially when it is time to pay the rent. I often wonder if people
really think that I believe them, I rarely do.
Why do we
still try and convince people with our lame excuses, when the truth would really
be a much better approach to the issue at hand? I think it starts when we are
very young, as children we were able to hear the adults in our lives make up
excuses that we knew were not the truth. Then as we grew up, we started doing
the same thing. Many people get away with telling a little white lie, not
because people believe them, but it is often easier to accept the lie, then
calling people out on it. We all know when people are lying to us, and maybe in
our minds, we accept their lies hoping that others accept ours.
In my
business of property management in Anaheim, Ca. I call out Tenants when they
come up with excuses that really do not make sense, and it seems as though the
same people come up with these excuses. If I were to accept these excuses, then
I would be allowing the excuse maker to think that they can get away with lying
to me all the time, It is important in my business to be blunt with people and
let them know that I have heard it all and will not accept their little white
lies.
The best way
to go about things in business and in our daily lives is to not allow people to
make up excuses when they are dealing with us, and also for us not to make up
excuses when we are dealing with others. It is not easy to be up front with
people all the time, in fact it may hurt their feelings, but when we make up
lame excuses, that will hurt them more. There are a few instances when sparing someone’s
feelings may be worth not telling the full truth, but those instances are rare.
Most of the time we lie to benefit ourselves, not to help others.
