Situations and Priorities

Few days ago my planning list included a vacation plan .Preparation for higher studies.Buy Diwali gifts for friends and family. Do shopping. Read magazines, books. Think and plan about savings.Search for a dream home.Buy a new Car.Relocate to a place closer to work.Think about my office work and make my code better. Then, I got the news that my Job is in jeopardy.Ever since I got that news my priorities have changed.

Now, I don't spend time in any of my favorite activities like reading blogs or books.Not able to concentrate on any book be it magazine or official guide to GMAT.I no longer enjoy the work I am doing at office.Can feel that my performance at work has declined sharply.Good number of websites,I visit include Job portals or prospective employer's websites. All I read,now a days, is about available job opportunities and job descriptions. Suddenly, my phone is seeking the most of my attention while waiting for an interview call. I read technical books to memorize the jargon which I have forgotten.I need to remember my previous projects.I have no clue weather Real Estate market is inclining or declining now. Plan for buying home or new car has been deferred.

Thinking,how priorities change suddenly.How a single day can change the plans forever.
