The Inner Lizard and E-Mail

TwistedByKnaves* has posted a thoughtful reply to my earlier post on reducing the expectation that all e-mails will receive a prompt response.

There is a danger in feeding our own inner lizards as well as those of other people. I've turned off the e-mail notification on my computer and instant messaging is similarly blocked.

I need time to think.

  1. Thank you, Michael.

    I am especially pleased that you took a few days to respond rather than jotting down the first thing that came to mind.

    Best regards,

    Will

  2. Will,

    You are more than welcome. I appreciate your comments.

    As for my response time, it is often the product of thought and sloth.

    Best regards,

    Michael
