It can happen to anyone. Before your day has been quite average but that suddenly changes into turmoil. Something big comes up and is trumpeting like a big parade on carnival’s day. The catch is that you need someone else to provide you a BIG favour in order to make it happen. How do you tackle it?
It is a possibility just to let it slide and let it pass by. You can just sit and not make it happen. The apparent advantage is that you don’t have to ask someone to do you a big favour. Your relationship with the person remains unhassled and you don’t make a fool out of yourself.
Another possibility is to grab your chances and take the blunt decision to ask someone to you a big favour. Psychologically it is a big hurdle to come over. How will the person react and will we keep a good relationship in the future. In my opinion, when you even consider about even having a relationship with that person asking a favour to someone from time to time is a must. The person you ask may even be flattered that you require his help. So it’s a double win: you try your chances and in the long run it will benefit your relationship with that person.
Bottom line: It is a classic. A NO you already have but a YES you can get. Go out and try your chances!
