Ten Minutes of Your Time
spicy courage 30 min +70 XP
Ask a busy person for ten minutes, and say exactly what you want them for.
Why this matters
A busy person finds it easy to refuse a vague request. A clear one they can at least weigh.
What to do
Pick someone you have long wanted to ask something but never dared, because they are busy. Decide two things in advance: how much time you need and what exactly for. Ten minutes is a good measure — genuinely little, and genuinely enough for one question. Write or say it like this: I am asking for ten minutes, I want to ask you about this, your call. Do not dress it up and do not grow the request as you go — if you got ten minutes, finish inside ten and stop yourself before they have to. Say thank you at the end and do not ask for a second meeting on the spot.
Afterwards
How many people have I never asked, having decided for them that they had no time?
