When I hear the sound of disappointment in a persons voice in reaction to something I’ve done, it haunts me.

I hate missing opportunities, but with so much going on at once it’s hard to have everything in balance. When my concentration is shifted, like it always is, inevitably there is something or someone that goes without attention and it nearly always causes problems.

Today I let down my brother in law, he got us in touch with the company he works for with a reasonably large project and I kept putting off replying because I knew we were too busy to do the job. In the end we hit the deadline date and we hadn’t submitted our proposal (we never could have) and I feel like crap about it.
