Something I’ve Needed to do for a Long Time
Kudos to Ramit Sethi for getting me to do something I’ve been putting off for a long, long time.
On Wednesday, Ramit posted on his blog about the need to examine the assumptions that we make and test them to keep them from holding us back. One assumption of mine was that a well-known author, though not a household name, would be too busy to answer an email from me. I’ve been wanting to reach out for a long time because I think this author has a unique ability to focus on the big picture and ignore the day-to-day chaos that the media shoves down people’s throats.
Well, thanks to Ramit, after about a year of procrastinating I finally sent the email.
The response came immediately: “Error: Mailbox is full.” I guess I was right to assume that he wouldn’t respond, or maybe I just need to try harder.
Next step: find a new email address. The adventure continues.
