You’ve probably read “The ‘Busy’ Trap” from the New York Times. Or you’ve seen friends post about it on Facebook. I’m glad friends posted and steered me to it. The author, Tim Kreider, made the argument that the new default response to “How are you doing?” is: busy, crazy busy … a boast disguised as a complaint. And the standard response to that, Kreider says, is a congratulatory statement. Awesome!
