Correct components:
- saying you regret your actions
- admitting that you offended someone
- promising not to commit the offense again

Not components:
- spurring someone to take action
- vigorously defending your own actions

Brief why: An effective apology expresses regret, acknowledges harm, and (when appropriate) offers a commitment to change. Defending yourself or pushing the other person to act undermines the apology.
