Now Not Later

Nasim Taleb, author of Black Swan and Antifragile, points out that aside from neckties, the electronic calendar is one of mankinds’ worst inventions.

I think I agree!

I’m considering getting rid of mine and adopting a policy of simply ‘Now.’

If you want to call me Now, go for it.

Nothing later, no appointment necessary, no calendar.

If I’m on the other line, yes, I’ll call you back Now.

But nothing Later.
