“Do not try to give a serious apology via electronic media. Taking the time to speak directly with someone better conveys your sincerity.”
Gary Chapman, When Sorry Isn't Enough: Making Things Right with Those You Love

Rachel Hollis
“When you really want something, you will find a way. When you don’t really want something, you’ll find an excuse.”
Rachel Hollis, Girl, Wash Your Face: Stop Believing the Lies About Who You Are so You Can Become Who You Were Meant to Be

Gary Chapman, When Sorry Isn't Enough: Making Things Right with Those You Love
