When they say too much availability can cause someone worth to be reduce is not an understatement, i never knew it would be that big deal because to me i feel since you are in the position to do something best, then do it like no one can do it like you but i do mistake it for availability because calling, responding to the calls all the time which is not phone call but call to work is always not necessary every time. At some point Availability might not be seen as care again when people already know that you will be present and it is certain so the urge to cherish you will start fading away.
When you are scarce definitely you will surely be valued no matter the gathering even though you are not that good but the fact you are not always available, that little thing will make you more valuable than someone who they see every time even if he is so good. I will still use myself as an example for this because it actually happened to me today and that was when i now believe what people do say about availability and scarcity. Using relationship as an example, if you are always too available you wont be too cherished.

Now to the example i want to make, i use to play the instrument which is the keyboard and the thing is that I don’t stay in a church to play because i feel I dont want to stay at a place since seeing me every time can make me loose my worth, then my friend use to go to a church which she invited me one day to come and play there since that is where she always go to and they don’t really have a good keyboardist so I listened to her and i went one sunday, ever since then they have been trying to always reach me and tell me to come play every Sunday for them knowing fully well that I have different places i do go to play.
So gradually i always go there often and i decided to be teaching them so musical practical that could help them improve since the person there before always demand for money and i just have to do it without any fee attached. But i noticed ever since then the member have been taking it for granted and they always feel like it is been forced on them to learn what will make them improve. In the aspect of instrument they now have access to seeing me so they don’t value those times of searching for me and begging before they see me.
Now i am already feeling like i am too available there and i want to stop going in the sense that i will be going there maybe once in a month instead of four times in a month. By doing that, it will surely reduce how people will even talk to you in a rude manner. Availability bring about disvalue and to fix that scarcity is the best option.
