Put Connection on the Calendar

We often schedule appointments more carefully than the people we miss. A recurring call or coffee date can give connection a place in the week. It also reduces the repeated task of finding a time that works.

Ask someone whether a regular check-in would suit them. Choose the length and frequency together. A ten-minute call may fit better than a long conversation, and a monthly visit may be more realistic than a weekly promise. Leave room to change the arrangement. The goal is a plan both people can enjoy and maintain.

Try this: Suggest one recurring check-in to someone you would like to see more often.
