Really its me just thinking out loud. I am confident we all do/struggle with this daily but I would like to hear your opinions on this post to get a feel for what others think and do in times when the priority is not necessarily important.
We all reschedule and re juggle but what do the successful people do to stay on track and not lose sight of their ultimate goal of a healthy lifestyle and weight?
To start I am going to list what I think is most important in my life right now and where its ranked in priority. In other words, its priority may not be ranked as high as its importance and because of this I reserve the right to change it in the future (I know it will). These lists are not exhaustive as I am thinking out loud and I am sure I will need to add things and probably looking back I will think why are these things not on the list or even why was this an issue?
Importance
- Shelter
- Work/Money
- Family/Relationships
- Health (IE proper eating, sleeping)
- Exercise
- Entertainment (IE blogging)
Current Priority Rank
- Work/Money
- Shelter
- Health
- Family/Relationships
- Exercise
- Entertainment
In the past, I have talked about stress and its'effects. Also, I have talked about fear and the will to succeed, which brings me back to my original reason for this post. That reason is BALANCE in priorities and their importance. We all strive for it, and if we are lucky we get it. What we make our priorities, typically becomes our reality. This is what I need to keep mindful of currently, and get exercise to start moving back up to the top of my priorities and not create excuses for myself. I am aware that it has dropped in importance but right now it has to be but whenever I can, I am and will fight back!
Tell me, is there a better way to look at this? When you cant make it number one, what's the best way to cope?
