Remember: you are evaluated.....

Most people can spot a disorganized person very quickly indeed. Just a couple of e-mails unanswered, calls not returned, deadlines missed, details unchecked, appointments delayed, and the person is marked down as unreliable.

Would you want to work with someone who is constantly letting you down? Would you want to do business with them? It’s a lightning judgment, and it can be very hard to reverse.

Remember: YOU are being judged just as quickly. Every time you leave an e-mail unanswered, don’t return a call, miss a deadline, don’t check details, or are late for an appointment, you are being marked down as unreliable. You are losing business, losing trust, even losing friends.
