Upset

I'm still learning how to operate my business. Even this blog you're reading is a big experiment of mine. Yes it's personal. Yes it sometimes has material that may offend. But I figure, the more my friends and even my clients know about me...the deeper our professional OR personal relationship.

Yet I managed to upset one of my clients who didn't know I had mentioned his site here. Somehow these posts get indexed on Google more often then I thought. Yeah....my mistake. Perhaps not everyone wants their site mentioned, personal site or not.

What do you do when you make a professional mistake? You just apologize and correct it. That's all you can do. I've made mistakes and I'll probably make more in the coming years. It's interesting sometimes to think that professional service sometimes means the ability to apologize for your mistakes and taking action to correct it.

It hurts.... when you have good intentions and it turns out to work against you. But I just gotta get over it. Maybe from now on I'll just post my projects with no comments about them at all. This way I'm safe from saying something that might be a liability.
