Hey Steemians,
Today I'm going to talk about how important it is to do things according to their importance.
I'll list you my personal priorities so you can have an example to follow if you don't have set peiorities yet.
As you know, we have a limited time on this planet, our most valuable asset to trade.
We have 8760 hours in an year, that's 5840 hours net, sleep excluded. That's a lot of time that should be spent wisely, to support achieving your goals.
I find this quote amazing:
"At present respect your time, or time will disrespect you in the future."
That's so true, we should respect our time by using it for important stuff instead of procrastinating, then time will disrespect us because we don't have much of it left when we realize this.
Better realize this now, your time is limited so wake up! Do things in order of their importance!
Steemit can be pretty time consuming, but considering the fact that you can influence lots of people (aka. 300 followers for me, thanks guys, love you) and help them in thousands of ways with your life experience I consider it worth doing and put it up on my priority list.
So let's get to my priorities. I'm a christian, so I believe in Jesus Christ that died on the cross for me to forgive my sins, to be redeemed, soon receive His Holy Spirit & after that eternal life.
No. 1 Priority is God, hence getting an unlimited amout of time by obeying Christ in this life is my biggest and 1st Goal on my priority list..
No. 2 Health.
I've put health over careet because it's better to be poor but healthy rather than rich but sick. Therefore I respect my sleep schedule 6:00 AM up 8:30-9:00 PM to bed. I also eat healthier than 99.9999% of this world's population (vegan organic what not) and exercise 5-6 days/week 1-3 times a day.
No. 3 Career
3rd on my priority list is career. I am currently still attending High school, so I don't yet have that much time to do my thing online since I write baccalaurate exams in 2 months & need to learn a lot.
After exams I'll start my own thing online, but I'm already allocating time for things with future potential, as steemit.
By my own thing I mean making my own website/blog in 2 months; about Christianity, Overcoming Porn/Sex Addiction and maybe also some digital skills (how to make your own website) content. I want to write a book on how I quit porn with the help of God & how anyone can therefore too.
No. 4 Relationships
By this I mean a romantic relationship, if it's God's will I'll get married after I have some serious money. Of course family should be higher priority on this list, but if you think better what use of family if you don't have health. On the other side, what use of money if u don't have a family. so family is actually before career and after health.
But a wife is not something concerning me right now, rather acquiring the resources to sustain a family is.
We shall now think about doing things in the right order.
After we've put our priorities on paper, we should allocate time to each of them accordingly.
For me, most time for God, then actually most effort on eating healthy sleeping consistently & exercising but more time allocated to making money after that, or influencing people in a good way with the potential of having a big audience in the future, like here, now on steemit. Then only after I've got the green stuff I'll think about getting a wife.
What's important to you? What are your most important priorities? Write them in the comments below, I'm curious.
Thanks for reading,
