Life presents limitless choices, so many, we can become paralyzed, unable to move forward. Sources suggest we make a staggering 35,000 choices each day. Theoretically, we can achieve anything we set our mind to accomplishing. But making a choice means we deny ourselves hundreds of alternatives. Performing the task requires time, and time is the limiting constraint.
Daily, you will need to eat, sleep and perhaps commute to your employer and eight hours of work. Those activities will consume two-thirds of your day. Your free time, the remaining eight hours you can play a game, watch tv, go for a walk, or write your novel. Priorities set in your discretionary hours are the ones which may define your life.
How do you determine your priorities?

Good quote, when we are in “determined mode” to accomplish something somehow instinctively we know what our priorities are, i.e. getting things in the pipeline to make bigger things happen down the line. Right?! 🙂

Love this quote. Some people don’t realize how hard it is to do all the things we want to do and that prioritizing is have the challenge. I try to do a little of everything and let my mood/amount of time that I have for myself! 😀

Very true. I find it difficult, at time, to prioritize. Especially, when others seem to slack off it can really offset me and my mood. I’m going to have to learn to say No.

You bring up a valid point. Other people’s demands don’t necessarily translate as a priority for you. The correct answer might be “No”.
