'Do The Right Thing'...And You Will Benefit In The Long Run


Sometimes your emotions can cloud your judgement.

I've been guilty of exactly that over the last couple of weeks.

I was let down badly by my Autoresponders last week...and this week - my ezine still hasn't been sent out despite it being Sunday night (it should have gone out on Friday)

I've met the people that run the company that I use for both - and like them. Their support was impeccable.

Perhaps I've been spoilt as now that they are going all 'corporate' due to their success - I cannot trust their reliability - or get as good support as before.

So I'm looking at biting the bullet and moving my list. It's not a decison I take very lightly. After all it will certainly cost me more money.

But sometimes...you have to make those decisions that make sense - without letting the emotional attachment get in the way.

Above all - I value the fact that my ezine is on time - and delivered on time. Without that (and after the weekend I have had! lol) - then my entire 'reputation' online is put under scrutiny.

We all have difficult decisions to make (most of them undoubtedly more important that just moving a mailing list) - and it can sometimes be difficult to 'step back' from the situation - and look at it from a totally dispassionate set of eyes.

It's not easy - far from it.

But...any 'grief' that you have now will certainly be less than the problems you will have if you leave the situation to drag on as it is.

Marriages and life-long friendships have been broken for far less.

Even though it may sometimes seem that you are not doing 'the right thing' - your relationships will certainly benefit in the long run.
