Website Makes Your Life Easier With Lists
List nerds rejoice! I’ve found a website where you can upload all sorts of lists and share them with others all over the Internet.
I’m all about this site because I share the exact same philosophy. Give me what I need to know in easy, bite-sized blurbs. They make it easy to share and add to lists. You can even embed them on blogs and in emails. And it’s lots of fun to make these lists and get suggestions from other people.
There are lists about just about anything on the site like:
“I Don’t Know How She Does It” List
Ways to Observe Breast Cancer Awareness Month
12 Tips for Packing for a Move
I even made one of my very own! Check it out and please add your own secrets for getting more accomplished at work.
List of Steve Jobs’ Best Quotes
If you’re carrying an iPhone, iPad or iPod – your life has never been easier. If you’re a Mac user – you also know what I’m talking about. These pieces of technology are amazing for increasing productivity and efficiency! A man you’ve probably never met has changed your life forever.
Last night as I helped work on a Steve Jobs obit article, I realized that in his 56 years he’s said some very inspirational things.
Here are some of my favorite Steve Jobs quotes:
- “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.”
- “Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.”
- “Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me.… Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful—that’s what matters to me”
- “Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life…Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.”
- “Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”
Rest in peace Steve Jobs — we’ll carry your memory with us everyday — in our briefcases and in our pockets. 🙂
Amanda Knox’s To-Do List
I’m a news junkie — there I said it. Big news happens and immediately my heart starts pumping and I get that “news feeling.” Once a newsy — always a newsy. Years in a control room will do this to you. This is exactly what happened to me when the Amanda Knox verdict was read. She was set free and cleared of murder charges. Whoa — no matter what your feeling on the case — it’s shocking.
Immediately I put myself in Amanda’s shoes — if I were being released from prison after four years…what would I want to do? What did I miss? Who should I visit? How do you take all that in? So I made a list of to-dos that Amanda Knox should consider:
1. Get an iPad: I tell everyone I know that it’s the thing that you don’t need but that you have to have! She should immediately download Angry Birds.
2. Get Twitter & Facebook accounts: Twitter was just a baby when Amanda Knox was first imprisoned and perhaps she had a Facebook page as a co-ed…but things have drastically changed in four years.
3. Catch up on Movies, TV & Music: Avatar, Betty White’s comeback, Michael Scott’s exit, Oprah’s farewell season, Modern Family, Mad Men, Anything on Food Network, Lady Gaga, Amy Winehouse.
4. Eat Foods You Can’t Get in Prison: Green tea, dark chocolate, Pop Chips (so delish,) Pinot Grigio (I had to.)
5. Update Wardrobe: Buy skinny jeans immediately. Read more
