box
Summary - Prioritize

This is a continuation of the previous post on Redefining Priority

I heard this from a forwarded email and rewrite it for better understanding. Imagine you have a box for your computer. This is what you are supposed to pack, a set of computer, some CDs and unlimited amout of blank diskette. How do you pack?

1) Blank diskette first, CDs and then computer?
2) CDs first, computer and then blank diskete?
3) Computer first, CDs and then blank diskette?

If you start packing your blank diskettes first, the box will be filled with diskettes. How do you want to pack the computer or the CDs then?

To properly pack, we must pack the important ones first - the computer. Then if there is still some space left, pack the CDs. Blank diskettes is the least important because there are a lot of them and they are all blank.

Life is like that, we must first entertain the most important things in life, which are family, spouse, children etc. Then only we check on our career, friends, blogs, etc. The least important thing in life is like popularity, ego etc

———— personal note ————-
I have to admit, that when I started this blog.. sometime I spend more time with the blog than with my family. (At the moment there’s only the mrs, later only there’ll be family :) ), So I sincerely apologize to the mrs that if there is at anytime she feels neglected. There’s no way I am like that. She is the most important person in my life.. Period. Even so, it is she who is the most supportive of me throughout my journey to blog. I really appreciate this..p.s. The original story actually involves a jar, stone and sand.

On Relationship

  • The most effective way to remember your girlfriend’s birthday is to forget it once.

On Marriage

  • A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, preferably with the same person.

  • Having one child makes you a parent; having two makes u a referee.
  • A child’s greatest period of growth is the month after you’ve purchased new school uniforms.

On Finance

  • I believe we should all pay our tax with a smile. I tried - but they wanted cash.
  • Saving is the best thing. Especially when your parents have done it for you.

On Self Awareness

  • You’re getting old when you enjoy remembering things more than doing them.

On Miscellaneous

  • Regular naps prevent old age… especially if you take them while driving.

Summary - What would you advise yourself?

Yesterday I watched a movie - Paycheck, starring Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman. Basically Ben helped created a device that allow him to see the future. He sees himself die, but the problem is after he’d done with his work, his memory will be erased. So how could he prevent it? He actually send himself items to help him escape everything that will kill him. Interesting…Now I have two questions for you, I really appreciate it if you could help me by answering them.

If you could send a message to yourself back in time to any moment in your life, (in writing of course). What would you advise yourself?
