The little things go a long way

Sometimes it’s the little things.

“You reply to tweets!” Most people are busy delegating their social media. Every interaction with my Twitter comes from me personally. The little things that go a long way in showing you care.

“You listen to your community!” Most people are eager to “free themselves” from having to “manage” their communities, if they’re fortunate enough to have them. But they don’t need managing… they need loving. The little things go a long way in showing you care.

“This is such a calm space, it’s my new home!” Most people are shouting for attention, amping up anyone who will listen, desperate for more to listen. But being a calm presence in peoples lives, simply working hard to make their lives better… the little things go a long way.

If spending time with your people isn’t your thing, maybe you don’t deserve their time.

But if spending time with your people is your thing, maybe they’ll be eager for your attention when they realise the others just wouldn’t care enough.
