In this political cycle in the United States, Donald Trump has raised (or should I say lowered) the bar when it comes to conflict. His sophomoric responses to reasonable debate are mirrored by a lot of people on both the right and the left on Facebook.

“(Commitment is) doing what you said you were going to do, long after the mood you were in when you said you were going to do it has passed.”

James Brown, Co-Founder Arena Growth Partners

We all make commitments to others. Sometimes we wish we hadn’t made those commitments. It happens to me all the time. I’ll set an appointment with a potential client.
