You maybe wondering how the recent events on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner has anything to do with dating or relationships? Well actually it has as I will explain.

Think of Boeing 787 as yourself and the Airbus as one of your rival. Now Airbus has come very strong from it’s early days and now giving Boeing a run for its money. In particular, the Airbus A380 which has the potential to carry over 800 passengers has forced you (Boeing) to come up with something better. This came in the shape of the Dreamliner project which was starkly different to what Airbus offered and was designed to be smaller and one of the most advanced aircraft carrier in the world. As you embarked on this project, you have had to overcome the huge negative responses from the public about it’s delays etc. Finally, you decided to take the plunge and take some short-cuts in the process and launch the Dreamliner a bit prematurely. As a result, you have a new set of problems to deal with, all the small problems that have led to the entire stock of the Dremliners to be grounded until further notice. A huge hit on your credibility and the ability to do business.

The story is very typical of someone’s personality and many would say that businesses are built on sharp people but at the end of the day, it is humans who make the decisions and push the buttons. If you are not careful and you push the wrong button too early, you may have to deal with a situation that you won’t be able to cope with despite the pressure to achieve. It takes great courage and integrity to make good decisions when it comes to a relationship. A lesson learnt is don’t try to over please too early in order to have some calm in the waters, a strong individual will see what lies ahead and is able to make the most effective decisions for the future too.
