issue for failure essay

josephjoseph

I have something to consult you guys. Last year when a group of top Chinese real
estate developers came to nyc to visit I was introduced to the group by a banker
friend. I served as their English translator. I wanted to build relationship
with them and volunteered for a whole day. The next day I was supposed to go to
serve again. One of the CEO had a interview with discovery channel. But in the
morning I got a bad depression and couldn't get myself out of bed. And stupidly
I couldn't move myself and didn't call them to notify that I couldn't go either.
I made them waited and everyone must be very mad. They left nyc later soon due
to busy schedule. Back then my depression was really bad and I guess I screwed
up the thing. I knew that was really irresponsible and it must made a very bad
impression to them. I did not have the courage to contact them later to explain.
Of course I was a small nobody to them. I am wondering whether I should still
contact them or I should let it go. They might already forget about me. I am still young but I am sure we will meet somehow since I am in this industry. Maybe later on I should approach them from the new beginning and pretend we never met. What is
your opinion?

Today I was thinking about the failure essay and thought about this which haunted me for a long time.

What did you learn from this experience?

Depression is a kind of medical situation and I do not recommend using it as a failure essay...
