The satisfaction of checking off a task on an ever evolving To-Do-List is like sinking your teeth into a candy bar after fasting for a week! Ahhh, that taste of sweet success and feeling of swimming in accomplishment, that is until you see all the tasks you have yet to fulfill and just like that it’s like someone peed in your pool of accomplishment. Why do we do that to ourselves? Why do we continue to allow yesterday’s or last month’s uncompleted tasks and goals to haunt us?

Are we gluttons for punishment or is the system flawed?

If you do have any questions please feel free to post in comments.

What’s more, if you never had the chance to learn as a kid yourself, then you have a great chance to make up for what you missed.
