How about just writing a "quickie one liner or one paragraph," a
mid-western e-colleague suggested. "I'm too busy and don't have the time to
read more than that."
"It's not always smart to surrender to the telegram mentality of the
smart phone, tablet, or computer screen," I replied. "But, I understand--more
than you know. Besides, I have more than a few 'one-liners' up my sleeve.
Yeah, I can occasionally send out a few of those."
So, here's my first quickie "one paragraph": too busy; don't have the
time? "No time to say, 'hello,' goodbye?" "I'm too busy," or "I don't have
the time," however, isn't enough of an excuse, explanation, or rationale for an
inability--or refusal--to see, hear, much less care about, someone, or to care
to do something. Termites are always busy. Ants are always busy. Bees are
always busy. Busy is not the issue. The real issues are: what are your
priorities; for what or whom don't you have the time; for what do you have all
the time; at whose expense, are you too busy; about what and whom are you never
too busy and always have the time to be enthusiastic; where do you want to put
your time and effort where "too busy" and "don't have the time" are banished;
for what and for whom are you never too busy to whip your rump with a speeding
up "giddyap," but not for a pul
Make it a good day
