Priorities
Sep 15, 2014

How many of these titles do you represent? Mum, wife, partner, daughter, sister, friend, colleague, neighbour. I’m sure most of you reading this blog could tick off all eight roles, agreeing that each one provides an enormous sense of satisfaction. However, collectively these roles can bring confusion, frustration and destruction to your life. So how can you ensure these roles don’t collide, allowing you to live in harmony with the real you?

Identifying or reaffirming your priorities will empower you to spend your time doing what you want and need to do, rather than what others expect of you. Ordering your main priorities will enable you to create an effective schedule, make sense of how you want to spend your time and free up time so you can explore more personal goals.

Start by listing your primary responsibilities and add the aspects of your life you would like to add greater importance. Your list could look like this:

a)      Taking care of your family
b)      Working and developing your career
c)      Housework
d)      Gym sessions
e)      Family time

You will immediately notice the ‘must do’ jobs within this list, alongside a couple of personal goals. The key to a happier life is to prioritise your schedule so more time is spent doing the things you want to do. For example, you could reduce the time you spend on housework – a ‘need to do’ task – in favour of increased activity at the gym – a ‘want to do’ task.

If some tasks prevent you from spending quality time with your family, weigh up what you’d like to do most. Do not feel guilty if you have to let some commitments go to gain time with your children! Empower yourself to live life doing the things you most enjoy.

Prioritising will help you to create a better schedule and maximise your time so you can live the life you truly want.
