get better at keeping in touch with people who are important to me

THere’s been a bit of a facebook summer happening, with everyone signing up for an account, which means I’ve ended up getting in touch with a few people I haven’t spoken to in a while. It feels a bit tangental to this goal, it’s more a gentle brush than being in touch, but it has helped keep this goal in mind. And it means it’s easier to arrange a proper catch up session.

I’ve decided I should follow up this goal, although it’s not the most cheered, as it’s something I need to fit in around whatever else I do. My method is simple: each day I will call, e-mail, text or IM someone I haven’t spoken to in a while to find out how they are doing, and that person can’t be someone I see regularly (so people on my pub quiz team, work mates, and others don’t count). Blog posts don’t count :-)
