I won’t start emails with “hope you are doing well” — feels robotic.
-
I won’t end emails with “look forward to your response” — also feels robotic.
-
I will learn to respectfully NOT answer questions like:
-
“what are you working on these days?”
-
“how much rent do you pay?”
-
“what’s your plan?”
I don’t yet have the courage to give the answer I want to give: “I am not going to tell you because I don’t want to!”
- I will not feel guilty for not responding to text messages like “hey can we get on a call?” which don’t offer any context about what it is they want to get on a call for. (Unless, of course, it’s a message from close friends/family who should just call!)
I will keep adding to this list.
PS: I am not some famous VIP type person that people are dying to talk to or inquire about. Lol. Just another ordinary human getting through the world — struggling and frustrated with the way we talk to each other. Please understand.
