Priorities and Preferences

“Sometimes things in life happen that allow us to understand our priorities very clearly. Ultimately you can see those as gifts.” - Mariska Hargitay
 

There are several important things in our life. We set priority of things according to its importance in our life. Things remain same but priority changes with time. Priorities also differ person to person according to their age and instances. 

 Let’s take an example; suppose you have a jar and I tell you to fill up the jar with the maximum number of stones inside this. Idea is simple, you will choose the stones first with bigger one in size so that maximum number of stones you can put inside. If we consider this jar as our life, the bigger stones are our priorities. If you are a student, your first priority must be your study. For professionals their first priority is their job. For parents, it is their children. For a housewife, it’s the family etc.

Divide things according to its importance in life. If broadly we see, take those things first in preferences which directly relates to your identity, existence or survival. Your Job And family comes under this category. After that you can take things of your interest, hobbies, your friends, society. For daily activities, take your duty hour on priority, remaining time for family and friends, and the rest of your time for your hobbies and entertainment.

Give your time and effort to sort out things which are most important to you and need to be sorted out. Do not avoid things over  the time !!
