A sincere genuine apology: 5 steps

 A sincere, humble, and rational apology that restores trust typically involves several key steps:

1 Acknowledge the mistake: Start by acknowledging and taking responsibility for the mistake or wrongdoing that caused/led to the problem in question, followed by an expression of understanding as to the nature of the injury imposed on the other. Be honest about what happened without making excuses [1][5].

2 Express genuine remorse: Show genuine remorse and empathy for how your actions may have hurt or affected the other person. Apologize sincerely and express regret for your behavior [3][6].

3 Make amends: Offer to make amends, reparations, or restitution to compensate for any harm caused. This could involve taking concrete actions to rectify the situation or prevent similar mistakes in the future [2][4].

4 Commit to change: Demonstrate your commitment to change by outlining specific steps you will take to prevent the same mistake from happening again. Show that you have reflected on your actions and are willing to make improvements. 

5 Listen and learn: Be open to feedback and listen to the other person's perspective. Use this as an opportunity to learn and grow from the experience, showing that you value their input and are willing to improve,
