They don't have time ??!
People say they don't have time to be in touch!! Is that possible ? I don't agree :(
See what Stephen R. Covey has to say about the seven habits of highly effective people :)
Habit 1: Be Proactive
Are my actions based upon self-chosen values or upon mymoods, feelings, and circumstances?
Habit 2: Begin With The End In Mind
Have I written a personal mission statement which providesmeaning, purpose, and direction to my life? Do my actionsflow from my mission?
Habit 3: Put First Things First
Am I able to say no to the unimportant, no matter howurgent, and yes to the important?
Habit 4: Think Win-Win
Do I seek mutual benefit in all interdependent relationships?
Habit 5: Seek First To Understand, Then Seek To Be Understood
Do I avoid autobiographical responses and instead faith-fully reflect my understanding of the other person beforeseeking to be understood?
Habit 6: Synergize
Do I value different opinions, viewpoints, and perspectivesof others when seeking solutions?
Habit 7: Sharpen The Saw
Am I engaged in continuous improvement in the physical,mental, spiritual, and social/emotional dimensions of my life?
Sadly, I am trying to follow the first one and have understood that all other 6 are necessary :) Lets see:)
What say friends ?? More reads on the same ????

I totally agree with you. Time is always relative, and often it is the busiest people who manage to find time for everything!
I think that this is plain bad karma. All these precepts are anti to what is said in the Bhagvad Gita, which I take to be a very evolved outlook of life, no religious implications here. The attitude which is suggested by Covey et al is nothing but a greedy way to live life. A very American outlook to life.
