Priorities

What do you do when you feel like everything is a priority? We have so much that needs to be done and it's all important. So how do we distinguish which priority is most important? Well, the first part is easy. God and family should always come first. It's the rest that gets confusing.

When looking at my tasks I ask the question - "Which is causing me the most stress or which is standing in the way of the other things I value most?" Then I take care of that first. It's amazing the amount of stress that is reduced when I can actually cross it off my list.

So what truly needs to be a priority in your life? How can you fit getting it done into your day or your life? Remember, if you say it is a priority, then you have to make it so and take care of it.
