Responsiveness is Priceless - Part 1

The Persistence of Time - Salvador Dali  

People respond to what's and who is important to them. We are all like that. Human nature. I get it. 

Question: Who is important enough to you that you never say, "I'm busy. I'll call you tomorrow". Your mother, your father, your spouse, your children? 

Perhaps I'm just too "old-school."  I find it better etiquette to say, "Can't respond right now.  I'll get back to you as soon as I can."  

Texting has become so acceptable and accessible. Yet some shorthand answers miss the important nuance of kindness.

In today's increasingly perilous world, never presume there will be a tomorrow for everyone. 

Time is eternal. Tomorrow is not. Value responsiveness.
