Reflections Of Life

FIFO…LIFO…FO?

There are three kinds of items on my to-do list

• The Last In First Out – this is usually related to everyday work that needs to get done, not be choice but by the lure of that end of month packet… the list that goes into my everyday notepad early in the morning or in most cases when I get outta office the previous evening.
• The First in First Out – This is my never ending list… every time I have the energy I try to do as much as possible, but the quality of the list is such that things keep accumulating at the other end while I am trying to manage one end! All petty things that people ignore or do as part of life… but I have to write it down and put it in this list to get it done (could be as simple as paying my electricity bill). And this is the list that can make me love myself or get me on my nerves depending on which alternate day I am in :)
• The First In Last Out – this is my dream category :) yes, literally… like my never ending “Suitable Boy” to “attempt at going to the gym”. There are these sparks when things in this list do get done, but they take their own sweet time… sometimes even years! I trust myself that I would get everything done in this dream category… and that’s what motivates my life :)

* even the LIFO has a sub FILO list that no one at work knows about… hush hush

Sometimes I am so tempted to just take a break without a to-do list in my mind... I don’t know if I would be able to… or if I really want to? Would life still be interesting if I don’t have my to-do list to wake up to? :)
