How Many Priorities Do You Have? Any?

If you have more than three priorities, you don’t have any. – Darren Hardy

Priorities are a combination of goals and what matters to you now – right now, today, this week and this month.

When you prioritize something you make something more than just a goal, more than something you will work on if you have the time.

A priority is something that you attend to, that you pay attention to, that you work hard and smart on every day.

What are your priorities?

If you don’t know, figure it out and decide.

If listed more than three, you have a bunch of goals (dreams/wishes/hopes) that look/feel/sound like priorities (and all of them will suffer your divided/diluted attention).

Right now my priorities are Nutrition, Fitness and Finances.

Each day I ask myself what I can do further more goals for each. What must I do, and not do, to serve progress in those key areas?

I’ll ask you again: what are your priorities? what are you doing to serve them?
