Update Notifications: Stop Clicking Ignore
Here is a follow-up on Fantastic Friends
We get updates on a regular basis. They are reactions, notifications, feedback or signals on how we are doing in our relationships. They are sometimes verbal and non-verbal, pleasing or non-pleasing, but they sure come every now and then.
When they come, we have a choice. To click Ignore, Remind Me Later or Update.
