Hey, friends! I hope you’re excited because we are about to get real this week.
Yep. In today’s podcast, we are talking about all things priorities.
And more specifically, we are going to learn how to break through overwhelm, get our priorities straight, and start taking action.
Truth be told, this podcast was inspired by my own need for a refresher on the topic.
In short, I was having a hard time keeping my biggest priorities front and center.
With the school year officially started, I found my schedule much fuller than it has been over the summer (big surprise…) and I was telling myself that there is “too much to do.”
And what’s more, I was constantly looping the unhelpful thought that “there is simply not enough time in the day.”
Have you ever felt that way? Do you ever feel like there’s too much to do and not enough time to do it?
How to Set Your Priorities and Get Things Done
If so, first of all, know that you’re not alone.
And second of all, I challenge you to try on this incredibly powerful thought…
There is always enough time for what’s most important to you.
Really, it’s true.
There is always enough time for your top priorities.
Of course, the real secret is learning how to identify which priorities should be your top priorities, right?
And that is exactly what we explore in today’s podcast.

September 13, 2019 at 6:26 pmMy priorities seem to always be shifting. I’m a note taker. I have to have a list going to what needs to get done so I can prioritize them. That works best for me.

September 12, 2019 at 7:10 amI normally “try” to focus on what it’s on my agenda…but from time to time I have to focus on different family issues. When this happens I put the things to do into a priority list. This works for me 🙂
