Priorities - How to Have it All In Life
Today I want to talk about priorities
In life, there are some things that are abundant, like money, health, positivity, connection, love, people, life, and the ever-present moment
But there is one thing that is scarce in life: and that thing is time
While there is abundance in the ever-present moment
Each of us has a limited amount of time left to live
Each of us has exactly 24 hours in 1 day and 7 days in 1 week
And on average we each have about 80 years from birth until death
So the question then becomes:
If time is limited,
Then how are you going to use the limited time that you have?
I think we can all agree that there are a couple different categories of priorities that most people have:
Work
Fun
Health/fitness
Personal time
Time with loved ones
Time for adventure
Time for meeting new people
Spirituality/meditation
Art/expression
Etc.
But how we divide that up depends on who we are and what our priorities are
If your life’s purpose is to scale your business as much as possible and completely dominate
90% of your time will be devoted to business, possibly at the expense of the other priorities on the list - which is why a lot of career driven professionals and entrepreneurs find themselves out of shape at some point in their lives (like me in 2018 or any other time I’ve become obsessed with business)
Likewise - somebody who spends all their time in the gym might be broke and have their relationships/social life in shambles
And likewise somebody who spends all their time with their significant other or meeting new people… might end up getting a little out of shape and financially broke
So then it’s all about balance and creating the perfect balance for YOU
The perfect balance for the results that YOU want
And the perfect balance, lifestyle, and results that make YOU happy
So I’d encourage you to specifically define:
The exact business/career that you want
The exact body/fitness/health/how many years you live that you want
The exact social life, relationships, etc. that you want
And then settle for nothing less than that
Plan out your life day to day to ensure you can reach those goals and results
Hire, barter with, or find/befriend mentors in any specific area that help you achieve and guarantee that goal
And don’t be mad if you fail, or if it takes you a year, 2 years, 3 years, 10
You only have one life to live so keep going UNTIL
UNTIL you make it
UNTIL you reach your goals and dreams
And keep going, no matter how many times you fail
While our lifetimes are limited
Our life is all one big experiment
So keep experimenting until you figure it out
Whether you figure it out at age 18 or age 80, the important thing is that you keep trying, keep going, and never give up until you figure it out and until you make it
That, my friends, is what we call reaching your full potential and purpose
Your full potential and purpose in life.
