Netiquette IQ Quotation of The Day - Reflection Before Hasty Action

My blog post of 12/13/14 was about the items one should check before sending an email. The more important the message, such as an attached resume, the more critical it is to perform the key items. Below is a quote on reflection which I felt would convey the idea as well!
==================================================
"I think e-mail is representative of our fast food mentality in the United States, where everything has gotten faster and faster, and we're required to respond to inputs more quickly with less time for thought and reflection. I believe that we need to slow down."
Alan Lightman
==================================================
In addition to this blog, I have authored the premiere book on Netiquette, "Netiquette IQ - A Comprehensive Guide to Improve, Enhance and Add Power to Your Email". You can view my profile, reviews of the book and content excerpts at:
