PUT NOTHING FIRST

Here are a couple of suggestions for New Year's resolutions for 1995:

1. Never do more than one thing at a time. If you want to do nothing and something comes up that wants to be done, don't let it interfere with your doing nothing. You can't do both at the same time.

2. Never put off until tomorrow anything that you can put off until the day after tomorrow.

This avoids loading up tomorrow with things you can't do tomorrow (or, with a little luck, even the day after tomorrow).
