Priority

I remembered years back, there is a project manager told me that "You need to prioritize" when she respond to the problem of under-resource in our team. My objection was "well, i can prioritize, but can I drop those items in the bottom of the list". My objection was futile then, i still need to complete everything, but by wielding the magic wand of prioritization, all tasks will be completed brilliantly.

Nonetheless my topic today is not about priority in work, but priority in life. Last week, i heard a talk by my fellow toastmaster. He told us that he sworn to himself that he will spend at least 45 minutes daily with his kids. He said that he rather do it early than late, while he can still shaped the mind of his kids. He told us that if our kids are neglected, you won't know who do they mingling with and you may regret one day. I start reflecting myself, is family my priority, why do I spend much time in front of my laptop or hand phone? Do i spend enough time with my kids.

I think I need to remind myself more often.
