Everyone has a checklist. It is the list of things in our life that we have decided we want to accomplish. It is in the failing to achieve one of these items that we feel disappointed. It is an objective mechanism by which we become aware of our own mortality as time marches forward in our lives and we age. If the checklist is not completed as scheduled, we become worried and more fearful of death.
Re-evaluation of the checklist is ongoing as we learn and become aware of ourselves, our interests and our abilities. As such, many things on the checklist are deleted, many are added, but many remain there for life.
It is in the content and pursuit of the items on the checklist that we are fulfilled and experience life.
My checklist has been vast. Many things have been achieved. Many have not. Many things have been on schedule. Many have not. I have experienced much. Some of the most important items are in progress now. My checklist nears completion.
See you in hell,
Shakes.

What happens when you don't have a check list? Perhaps one has disposed of it due to never finishing or reaching your goals? Perhaps it is because I have set my bar too high and that I am tired of dissapointment?
Like the blog says, EVERYONE has a checklist. It's disposal is merely an attempt to ignore it due to too much disappointment. Clearly you have set your bar too high. Know your limitations. You spelled disappointment incorrectly.
