My objectives (in order of priority)

1. To do my work. To
the best of my ability. In my own eyes, it is my work that defines me
completely.
Mind you, I do not say that I should only do rocket science. Even if I am doing hard labour, I will do it with dignity.

2. To earn more money.
Who said money is nothing. Money is a very useful tool. Why not have as
much of it as possible?

3. To spend more money. What
happens to a tool when you don't use it? It rusts.

4. To enjoy the all the pleasures in life. He he... if you know what I mean.

Some interesting quotes :-

Tom Cronin: He's making his (Jason Bourne) first mistake.
Nicky: It's not a mistake. They don't make mistakes. They don't do random. There's always an objective. Always a target.
Pamela Landy: The objectives and targets always came from us. Who's giving them to him now?
Nicky: Scary version? He is.


If you think it is as simple as it seems to be.... try and understand this :-

"many commercial systems have provided fixed-priority scheduling for real-time tasks [Khanna et al. 92, Custer 92] in addition to round-robin scheduling for timesharing, often with the drawback of the possibility of starving timesharing tasks [Nieh et al. 93], while still providing no guarantees for real-time tasks unless they are executed at the highest priority."

regarding your first objective........will your productivity decrease if none understands your work...if there is no appreciation???...do you work for yourself or to impress others?

No one understands my work. Period. Not even my manager. He thinks I am a magician. And I don't care what he thinks, because I am busy with the next thing on my plate.

The only thing I care about is to see that I get my money for the work I do. I also like to be appreciated, but not the false appreciation which one usually gets. I would still appreciate true appreciation though. And the most real form of appreciation is money :).
