In my career I have always been frustrated by reactive leadership and motivated by proactive leadership but I am starting to see this more and more with relationships too. I know life is hectic and time is so tight. But it has always amazed and frustrated me how people always seem to make time for wakes and funerals but not to meet a friend for coffee. I for one will go on the record saying I would much rather have a good visit while I am healthy than many many visits during an illness or tragedy. Rather than reacting to a bad thing happening, be proactive with your friendships and get together for the fun times.
