Don't kid yourself on your priorities

Published: Friday, 08 March 2013

What are your priorities?  Work?  Family?  Relationship?  Start-up?  9-5?  Non-profit?  Volunteering?  Watching television?  Reading blogs?  Eating?  Meetings?

Don't kid yourself on your priorities.  Where you spend your time determines your priorities;  where you focus most of your time is your first priority.
