Busy, busy, busy….

I’ve been so busy to-doing this morning I’m later than usual getting here to write. I’ve been busy networking – and writing thank you notes. I even wrote a thank you note for a rejection email. Sounds weird doesn’t it?

I believe in saying thank you. Even when it seems counterintuitive. Good manners are in short supply these days but my Mom would roll over in her grave if I didn’t use my manners!

Seriously – it isn’t hard to say “please” or “thank you.” Or hold a door open for people. Or return your shopping cart to the corrals in the parking lot. Having a little bit of consideration for your fellow humans shouldn’t be so hard!

So acknowledge an email. Send a thank you for that gift. Use your turn signal. Let someone into your lane in traffic. Smile and say please or thank you! It may make someone’s day – maybe even your own!
