One thing I don’t like is selling or buying goods on credit. I always make sure that I buy goods that I am capable of buying instead of me to chew more than I can.
So, I’ve been expecting one woman to pass by my house so I can collect the money she’s owing me. Fortunately, she came yesterday and pleaded with me that she was busy with so many things and she has spent a lot of money. I understood how she felt and I gave her the grace to pay on Tuesday which is today.
I sat outside my house making sure that I see the woman when she passes by. I haven’t even spent up to one hour outside the house when I saw her pass the front of my house.
She told me she will get to me in the next hour but she didn’t come at all. I need money to buy some more goods but now that she hasn’t paid me, I can’t even restock. The sad thing about it is that I don’t even know where she resides or anything about her whereabouts.
Things like this can be very tiring and it makes me feel bad about helping people because we never can tell if they will be grateful or not. I have also had cases where some people owe me money and fail to show up and if the business is selling too much goods on credit, the business will crumble but I don’t want mine to happen like that.
I went back inside the house and I was feeling very angry. I was even getting tired of the business and felt like giving up but what’s the point. I was in that sad mood yesterday so I just decided to listen to two songs that fits my mood while I was also contemplating if I should keep helping people or not because selling to her on credit practically means that I helped her.
Let’s have the songs I listened to.
When you’re mad
Since I was so vexed and mad yesterday, I went on YouTube but I didn’t have an idea of a song I can listen to in that kind of mood so I made some findings on YouTube and I ended up with this song by Ne-Yo. If you are sad, listen to this song and I hope it helps to calm your mind just as it did for me.
Set Fire To Rain
I didn’t know why I chose to listen to Adele. Well, it’s part of the songs YouTube recommended to me and I listened to it. I think it’s even the one that put me in a good mood the most because I was already familiar with the song even before the recommendation so I just vibed to it and put me in the singing mood just like that.
At last, I got in a very good mood and I eventually figured out how to run my business so it doesn’t crumble.
Try to minimise selling on credit, you may not eliminate it entirely because sometimes, people actually need it but in such circumstances you can give them just the thing they need at the moment.
Debts can crumble your business and soon you will be the one needing help , so limit the way you sell on credit.
I hope she pays you and on time too.
Thank you so much
I hope she pays me on time too
