   Priorities
Just some brief self-awareness ramblings today.

I have been thinking about what people think is important. For me, I think my actions reflect what I truly find important. Unfortunately, I sometimes get sidetracked with smaller immediate things instead of focusing on the larger important things.

So - I am wondering - for the things that you feel are most important - do your actions consistently work towards those important things or do you find yourself tied up in things that you see as unimportant? If that is the case, do you get angry at yourself for the decisions you make?

What is most important to you & what does that mean? For me, my wife is one of the most important things in my life. What I think that means from a priority perspective is that I need to do what it takes to help give her a livable environment and make time to share my life with her & enjoy her company. House payments, car payments, medical bills, scheduling, home projects, and shopping are some of the specific tasks related ot that priority. Of course, many of these tasks are not specific to that priority, I also have other priorities that necessitate that I.. you know - eat, have someplace to sleep, etc.

If family or friends are the most important thing in your life, what does that mean in your day to day life? How do you spend your resources?

A couple of the priorities that I logically believe are very important, but somehow don't spend the effort to actually do - diet and exercise. I am overweight & have high cholesterol, so I know these things are important to extend my lifespan - which I think is important, but I have not had the passion and focus towards those things to stick to them. The more I think about these things, the more likely I am to stick to it. Unfortunately, taken to the extreme, I am most successful when I am obsessed with it (to the point where other people really get sick of hearing about it).

ok - enough rambling for today. Gotta get back to work. I hope everyone is doing well.
