You should take your #1 priority and plan your day to focus on that first. Then do the same with your other priorities.

Mental discipline: If you prioritize your tasks which you wish to achieve during your life, you will gain mental discipline. When different goals and tasks attack you like honey bees, it will create mental anarchy. You have to channelize these priorities and remove the clutter to avoid confusion. You have to have the vision to do the things with set priorities.

Your priorities must be listed out in the order of importance of your tasks and goals.


Time Management: Priorities and time management have a close relationship. Set your priorities with deadlines to achieve your goals. If you act like this, you can manage your time effectively. If you can plan your work schedule and time schedule based on your priorities, success will embrace you without any hesitation.

If you cannot set your priorities properly, you will have to face a lot of tensions and stress in your life. You will be depressed and will not be able to concentrate on the task on hand. Unnecessary work will waste your time and mentally create havoc. Those who neglect priorities will always have to face the music of failure.

"The road to success and the road to failure are almost exactly the same." -- Colin R. Davis

Importance vs. Priority: Understanding the Difference

41.png

Understand the distinction between importance and priority. Learn how to effectively allocate your time and resources for maximum impact.

It is quite difficult to answer when we are asked what the difference between priority and importance is. Both seem like the same, isn’t it? But in actual they differentiate a lot. Everybody does have something important in their life but that doesn’t mean that important thing has to be your priority. We also have some priorities in our life and priorities in our life are important.

Let’s clear your doubt out with an example: we have a lot to do every day but there are few things to get done within a fixed time. Such as in your office or colleges even at home, and because that needs to done on time. You work first on that because that work is your priority and you know it needs to be done on or before time. But we can’t ignore the rest of the work they are important as well so we keep on doing them as well.

I am the first priority in my life.

46.png

That sounds funny, isn’t it? But that’s the truth, you must be your first priority. Why is it important to give priority to yourself first? It is so because if we are perfect in everything we can assist others. Life is as simple as it can be but we are the one complicating it with very minor things, even Life.

Giving priority to yourself first, you get to know what your body and your mind (soul) needs. Take time and analyze what are you must need for living (not surviving). Once you are clear about your basic needs, you will be more comfortable to remove all things from you to make you happy and comfortable.

What can we do to make ourselves or first priority? Remove all the unwanted, useless things from your life, especially the negative people around you. Never, ever, hesitate to remove anything that deters your peace of mind. Trust me as soon as you become your #1 priority you will be strong enough and handle everything very easily.

What are the top priorities to have a meaningful life?

47.png

I asked this question too; many people and their responses were amazing. Here is the list of top priorities to leave a meaningful life.

The purpose of life: yes it is very important to learn about your life’s purpose. Why are you doing something? Everything must have a specific purpose to make your life meaningful.

Good health: yes health matters a lot if you are earning but aren’t well what is the purpose of that. You must look after your health when you have good health you can make good things happen in your life.

Relationship: maintain a good relationship with people around it helps our life get more colorful.

Development: when we work hard for sure we develop in so many areas, and the development makes our life meaningful and happy.

Relatives: one of the most important priorities in our life is our family. We can earn so much but happiness is when we share it with our loved once. Family and relatives must be the top priority in everybody’s life.

What should be our first most priority in our personal life?

48.png

Something that we give more priority than others is called our priority. Every one of us does have one such priority in our life. Here let’s see what should be our first 5 priority in our personal life.

1. Family: personally we are all attached to our family and they must be our first most important priority. A person without a family even if is very rich can’t be as happy as the one with a family.

2. Health: earning is very important but we must be very possessive and caring towards our health. Health is wealth so keep yourself strong and healthy.

3. Income: yes making money, money plays a great role in this world. We must give it a priority in our personal life. If we have money people respect us as well as we get full filled almost all of our wishes.

4. Leisure: we all need freedom in our life freedom to choose things, freedom to do things and freedom in everything.

5. God: yes we can’t ignore it, God has to be our topmost priority.

How to keep your Priority first?

49.png

The fact is that not everything that is urgent is necessarily important and this is where many individuals go off track. For instance, you may be at home feeding your child who just got up from a long nap and in the middle of that, the telephone rings. The impulse is to answer the telephone simply because it's ringing; the ringing makes it urgent but is it really more important than feeding your hungry child? Of course, it's not. The thing is though that many people would pause the feeding and answer the telephone which is a natural impulse that comes from our conditioning.



It still befuddles me how often I am in a meeting where the person I am meeting with continuously answers the telephone each time it rings. This is because it seems urgent, BUT, is it necessarily important - could it have waited? Of course, it could have. There's a good reason voicemail was invented.



The first rule is then to list your priorities in order of importance, not urgency. There is a clear difference between the two so think about it before you prioritize. The order of importance can take many forms and contexts.
