Need help on this one anyone have any ideas

LMAOOOOOOOOOO

Lmk if you figure out so you can share with the class.

Idk how many times I have been told “you say sorry too much”

My boss once literally told me they’d fire me if I said sorry any more when it wasn’t necessary.

You get it…

Impossible…

I feel so bad, Jeff and Pablo have been trying so hard to get me to stop today…

So understandable 🙏🏾 Communication can be challenging! 💞

Try the trick of cognitively slowing down after the word “I’m -“ to give yourself a moment to choose some other words that may align more closely with how you’re feeling 🫂Overwhelmed, grateful, at a loss for words, loved - whatever it may be.

Love your words & you. Thank you for the perspective and advice always 💜🥲

I love you too sweetheart! Big hug from afar!

Say sorry one more god damn time. I dare you

try "my bad" more often. it signals you are in control and deserving of forgiveness. also signals accountability and the knowledge that only you can correct your behaviour.

and #1 tip: turn it around, thank the person for their effort in the situation you're feeling sorry for (instead of "sorry im late" you say "thanks for waiting and your patience")

This is so helpful omg

say Right on, Thanks.

Stop being so hard on yourself. Just because two people have different opinions on something doesn't mean you shouldn't share said opinions. My friends and I have disagreed on so many matters. We were never offended due to the fact that we had different opinions. In fact, it was a good thing. Explaining in an in-depth manner helped us understand each other's perspectives in a far more beneficial fashion.

Not sure why somebody might want to/feel they need to say sorry all the time. Unless they had one of those jobs. You know, politician, banker, doctor, journalist, lawyer... all the people least likely ever to say sorry.

Just say no, nothing else after that. Seriously.

Instead say: my bad yo

Nothing wrong with that, if you ask me! I say sorry all the time too! 🐶🐾🫂

Recognize that saying sorry when unnecessary actually devalues a true apology. Instead of saying “sorry” think “I apologize” or “excuse me” and if there is not a reason to truly apologize, excuse yourself and move on. If you’re saying sorry too often, you’re most like apologizing for existing, and deserve more respect than your giving yourself. Appreciate and respect your existence, it isn’t something to apologize about.

Tearing up bc of this… thank you Austin

No need to cry! Just hope I could help. Thanks for the zap :-)

People are taking notice of your post.

what is this ssss

Start thanking people. Instead of saying "sorry I'm late" you can replace it with "thanks for waiting"

At least that's what kind of worked for me.
