Week in Review

27th April - 4th May
Important Tasks Set: 3
Important Tasks Achieved: 3

I've managed to complete most of the important tasks set out for last week. The major stumbling block was the fact that my job at Lend Lease has come to a grinding halt :) With that fact, the hours of my days at work have been spent on doing other activities.

However, the job scene looks set to be taking a new direction, as I should be starting to work for the CIO this week. I have no idea what he has planned for me, but I'm sure it will be better than configuring an application that no one in APAC will use!

I am beginning to see the real need for weekly planning. Without it, I have trouble deciding on what I need to get done. Urgent tasks take over, and important ones are left behind. Case in point is this diary, that I am trying to update weekly, but not that successful. Will keep it as a priority from now on.

Read an interesting passage from my "Story of Philosophy" book. It was regarding Voltaire, the French philosopher whom some say was responsible for seeding the beginnings of the French Revolution. He says that atheism may not be the right frame of mind, because if you cannot comprehend omnipotence, cannot understand how God would operate, it's also a big call to claim that you can comprehend existence without God there.

Yes, I do feel that I lack a spiritual side to me. Philosophy could be my spiritual saviour :)
