Book #03 - Make A List

written by Michael Ogden and Chris Day

This book is quite intriguing because it provides readers with ideas on making up a list of things to do before one ....err....moves on to "greener pastures" :) However the idea of having an enriching is by making a list of things to do - from the simple to the absurb. In a nutshell, these 'things-to-do' is something akin to your new year's resolutions except they don't have a one year dateline. As a matter of fact, they are actually disguised goals.

As a matter of fact, I already have my 'list' and though the book prescribes a conservative 100 items;- I'm going for a 1000 ( MrDanny loves to up the ante ) I'm somewhere close to 200 and still thinking about the other 800+ things. Of course you must not be so materialistic in your goals like 'I must have a Puma sweater/ new handphone/ new wallet' and such because material things don't last. One of the things I can tick off my list is 'To Run and Complete a Marathon' :)

Well if you want interesting ideas or things to do during this so called 'boring' holidays, I suggest you make a list of the things you've always wanted to do and start planning and doing them.

PS: Unfortunately, I didn't get to hear Taylor Swift serenading to me during the run as I had finished the race before she got a chance (blame it on her name which starts with the ltter 'T' and thus she ended up somewhere at the bottom of my playlist).

"Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves."
