The power of Priority: Putting first thing first.

The greatest secret to living effectively on earth is understanding the principle and power of priorities. 

Life on earth holds no greater challenge than the complicating daily demand of choosingamong competing alternatives for our limited time. 

Our life is the sum total of all the decisions we make every day, and those decisions
are determined by our priorities. How we use our time every day eventually defines our lives. 

Life was designed to be simple, not complicated, and the key to simplifying life is prioritization.

Identifying the correct and right priority of life is the key to a successful and fulfilled life. 

So then, what is the principle and concept
of priority? 

Priority is defined as:

✓ The principal thing.
✓ Putting first things first.
✓Establishing the most important thing. 
✓Primary focus. 
✓Placing in order of importance. 
✓Placing highest value and worth upon. 
✓First among all others.

If our priorities determine the quality of life and dictate all of our actions and behavior, then it is essential that we understand and
identify our priorities. 

The greatest tragedy in life is not death but life without a purpose—life with the wrong priorities. 

Life’s greatest challenge is in knowing what to do. 

The greatest mistake in life is to be busy but not effective.  And your greatest failure is to be successful in the wrong assignment. 

Your success can easily be measured by the effective use of your time.

The key is breakdown complex objectives and start with one. And you do just by simple trade-off.
