Business

To get this out in the open, "I'm too busy right now for xyz," is one of my most pet-peeved statements. Busy means I'm the President of the United States; I'm an astronaut and I'm on another planet; I'm in a really successful rock band touring the world. I do understand that we're all busy people in this world but to say you're too busy to make time for friends or reading a book or doing your devotions isn't so much of a case of being busy as it is with having a different set of priorities. Next time you're "too busy" for something, think about how you can explain that better, particularly if I'm the one you're explaining it too; I promise you that you'll learn an important lesson from it.
