Today ask many or any around they say they are short of Time to

many matters which work for them, however I too do not cope with Time keeping my professional

and life priorities. We all like to be over-achievers! Someone says, “Achieve,” and we jump right to it.

We even achieve multiple things at once – The modern world chasing us crazy, however we are lost

in the world and we do more than what we think In an era that tells us to keep rushing, from the

time we are children, to reach the next milestone in life (college, career, marriage, children, etc.), it’s

often hard to keep our priorities straight – or even know what they are. Mix in an overload of

internet exposure, media, and pop culture, and it becomes almost impossible to hear yourself think.,

Major crisis in the world today continues we are doing many things without thinking giving way tomany conflicts in life, work place differences,

How humans differs from animals make a sense when we read a quote Masanobu Fukuoka,

Revolution “I do not particularly like the word 'work.' Human beings are the only animals who have

to work, and I think that is the most ridiculous thing in the world. Other animals make their livings by

living, but people work like crazy, thinking that they have to in order to stay alive. The bigger the job,

the greater the challenge, the more wonderful they think it is. It would be good to give up that way

of thinking and live an easy, comfortable life with plenty of free time. I think that the way animals

live in the tropics, stepping outside in the morning and evening to see if there is something to eat,

and taking a long nap in the afternoon, must be a wonderful life. For human beings, a life of such

simplicity would be possible if one worked to produce directly his daily necessities. In such a life,work is not work as people generally think of it, but simply doing what needs to be done.” This

makes me realize that we are consuming MORE than producing at the cost of many poor in the

world

Anyhow keep going with Life is a priority, I too realize with advancing age and seniority using Time

for betterment to the system is priority. I was just reading to Steven Pressfield, The War of Art: says

“The Principle of Priority states (a) you must know the difference between what is urgent and what

is important, and (b) you must do what’s important first.” The people succeeded in life were those

taken what is important than what is urgent, now everything looks urgent with changing society

where the people are impatient, get their things done, I think my priories to Time are different at

after 60 years I should be attempting to achieve different personal goals than those which had

priority than at younger years Becoming Awesome. Most of the things we need to do to become

awesome are important, but not urgent. Typical activities that belong in quadrant II would include

doing long-term planning, taking classes, and spending time with your family and friends,

WHAT IS IMPORTANT FOR ME TODAY Health. Of mind, of body. Keep oneself in shape,

but not obsessively interestingly, studies have shown that regularly exercising and accomplishing

physical challenges will automatically keep your mind sharper and happier. In addition, it will

embolden you to accept other non-physical challenges

TODAY I NEED HELP FROM MANY  – SO I SHOULD HAVE GOOD RELATIONS WITH MANY

Relationships. Family, friends, and people that YOU CARE ABOUT seem to be a logical secondary life

priority after you’ve taken care of yourself

As Tennessee Williams said, “Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends

we choose.” 

THINK ABOUT A PURPOSEFUL CARRER TODAY MANY OPPORTUNITIES however, we have the

blessing – and curse – of having way too many options. It has the effect of making life decisions

harder – overwhelming, at times, as we decide on education, where to live, which subcultures to

associate with, and what career paths to pursue. Rather than getting caught up in the speed and

ambiguity of the times, challenge yourself to make career decisions according to WHO and WHAT

you want to be.

LIVE FOR TODAY don’t live for tomorrow; Enjoy life! Pleasure is so important and brings the cycle of

life priorities back to #1, which is your own personal well-being Some people believe that to live a

happy and interesting life, you must “never be satisfied” with yourself. 

MY LIFE PRIORITIES TODAY CONTINUES TO BE Have fun with people, marvel at the beauty of the

natural world, listen to music, develop your hobbies, READ MORE WHAT I MISSED WHEN I WAS

YOUNG travel, and play around with the idea of satisfaction. Procrastination is not such a bad thing,

after all…

DO NOT FORGET TO LEAVE SOME THING TO THE WORLD TO MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE FOR

MANY IN THE WORLD DO REMEMBER MANY OF OUR SELF INTERESTS DIE WITH US OUR

MISERLY SAVINGS MAY BE FORGOTTEN BY OUR OWN NEAR AND DEAR

THINK TO LIVE A BETTER LIFE THAN YESTER YEARS

I THINK TO LIVE TODAY THAN LATER
