Priorities Set Straight, Life Made Great

GET YOUR PRIORITIES RIGHT

Every one of us needs to decide what our highest priorities are in life and have the courage to congenially and unregretfully say NO to all the other things. And the best way to go about that is by having a bigger YES burning inside for all those priority areas.

Setting priorities is very important to have a smooth going life, but it doesn’t always have to be hard to actually prioritize. When you actually know what is important for you and what isn’t, its really easy to achieve your goals quickly. Who wouldn’t want that?

You can learn how to set them by the following ways. While you might not want to follow all of them exactly as they’re stated here, you should come away with a better idea on how you should personally start to set your priorities.

1. Determine Your Goals

The first thing to consider when you’re learning how to set priorities is to determine what your goals are. You might have big ones and small ones, and you may have one goal or many goals. You just need to figure out what they are and write them down if that helps you.

2. Get Clear

Once you’ve decided on your goals and priorities, work on their clarity. State them as simply as you can. While you don’t want to leave out details, you also don’t want to be too wordy and confuse yourself in the future.

3. Get Organized

The organization is also key when you’re learning how to set priorities. There are different organizational styles that you can adopt. It doesn’t really matter what you choose as long as you’re not just leaving things up to chance.

4. Realize that You Can’t-Do Everything

After you get organized with your priority lists, you might be tempted to have your attention on too many things at once. You need to realize that there are only 24 hours in a day. There are things you wanted to accomplish that you won’t be able to just yet. Schedule it for another day and don’t sweat it.

5. Keep Your Focus

Strive to remain focused on your priorities. Everyone’s mind begins to stray every now and then, which is okay sometimes. But you don’t want to allow procrastination to creep up on you. Keep your eyes on your priorities.

Let your actions express your priorities!!
