Saving the Best for Last

Save the best for last.

It's the saying your mom always told you during dinner throughout your entire childhood, until you realized that broccoli actually isn't good (who knew?). But for those of us who eat the pizza's crust, why wait to eat it last, if it's the least favorable part? Do we feel so much as the "right here, right now" society that it affects our nearly subconscious regular eating programs in that we eat the best first to have the worst for last, leaving a bad taste in our mouth, only to be soothed by an always near by water fountain? Why not put what already is in reverse back to normal? Why not have asparagus before bask in the delicious flavors of your burger or hot dog or pizza hand selected for today's cravings, so that when you go back to your regular doings you can remember the last thing you ate, the one freshest in your tastebud's memory, the one that doesn't need to be washed down by that always near by water fountain? And it doesn't always need to be food, but school and work too. Imagine this: you're working on a project that seems to be pretty cool. You have all the details and know exactly what you have to do. Why not do the boring research about your subject before you do your exclusive interview with the celebrity, or with your gymnastics champion cousin, and jump around with him on his incredible trampoline. In that sort of way, you can imagine and look forward to the great stuff to come, and can motivate and push yourself along as you trudge through every little boring detail.
Trust me, it won't leave a bad taste in your mouth, and it's helpful for that project you really don't feel like doing, but you need to get a good grade on. Think about it.
