Lists and me, 2019

                              "I love lists!"


I have always been a person who makes lists. Lists for everything. Where to eat, what to eat, what to buy, what to read, who to meet, what to cook, how much to spend, what work to do today, what to do next month, what I want in a few years, which schools for Ira.

Some of these lists become detailed excel sheets. This morning while conversing with two of my besties on whatsapp (one lives in Ooru and the other in a far away land), we began chatting about what we want to do in 2019. We listed one of the things and then I realised I had a list here too. A mental list that I put to words. I am not a resolution kinda person but I can be perseverent when I  want to.

So, here is that list, in no particular order.

1. Make memories that matter- experiential moments. Focus on love,laughter and happiness. Meet challenges with the strength they demand. Never regret a decision you took. Be hopeful of what the new day promises.
2. Read more books. Read a new author every month.
3. Meet friends more often.
4. As an L&D (Learning and Development) consultant,  learn to Say no to clients who don't value your work.
5. Learn a new skill- do a new course
6. Travel a little more to new places
7. Get fitter, get your lungs to work better
8. Love yourself more, do one solo trip
9. Learn to keep calm, the world is not going anywhere
10. Continue to be the mad self you are, life has worked out fine

This is what friends and fine mornings can do to you.
