Welcome back to On The Grow, I'm Grace Lee.
This is the sixty seventh episode into the binge-able Red Flags Series.
"Along with this fast-paced hustle culture, technology gives us EVERYTHING we want. Everything is there at the touch of a button. When we’re lazy or just don’t have time to cook, we Postmate it. Or Uber Eats it. We get our food delivered to us in an hour or less RIGHT to our door. It’s that easy. We are so used to figuring out how to optimize our time and our pleasures that forging real relationships doesn’t register the same way. So when we start sending an eggplant emoji to a girl on a late night and she doesn’t respond or doesn’t want to come over, we get upset. Or if you want to hangout next week at 7 PM with a friend, and they can’t do that specific time, you’re bummed out. We’re so used to getting what we want when we want it, we run away from the idea of slowing down and nurturing a real relationship. Don’t even get me started on the dating apps."
In Episode 67 on On The Grow, I talk about the people who claim to make plans once, twice, maybe even three times… and never follow through. These are the people who like to say A LOT, but when it comes to executing, it never happens. They like to talk up a big game of who they are, their plans, what they’ll do… but then nothing. I call these people flakes — BIG. RED. FLAGS. I’ll talk about the type of ‘flakes’ I’ve experienced in my life, give you another perspective on why people flake, how to spot the red flags with these types of people and more.
