Desires dictate Priorities. Priorities structure our Choices. Choices determine the course of our lives. "The key is not to prioritize what’s on your schedule but to schedule your priorities."
– Stephen R. Covey
- Step 1: Review your list of desires.
- Step 2: Choose ONE thing from each of these four quadrants. Select the one thing that, when accomplished, will have the greatest effect on your other listed desires:
- Core (Faith, Family, Health, Well-being) – If prioritized, what one desire would strengthen everything else in this area?
- Experience (Learning, Competencies, Alliances) – What experience, learning, or association will create the most significant long-term impact?
- Contribution (Arrows Out, Compassion, Impact on Others) – What act of service or generosity will amplify your influence?
- Financial (Dynamic Value, Nurturing Connections) – What financial priority, when accomplished, will support everything else? - Step 3: Reflect on these four priorities. When you achieve your top 4 priorities, what is the likelihood that almost everything on your list will also be achieved?
