Priorities : A Complicated Yet Common Term

in #priorities6 years ago

Welcome back people! Today’s topic is very special because nowadays , people are labeling different things , people , jobs , passion as their ” priority ” . Are you one of them? Don’t worry , today I will tell you what is the actual meaning of this term and how you should use it ! But first , before starting , I would like to thank you all ! Thank you for being so supportive and thank you for encouraging me by making good comments ! 🙂 Really you all have a special place in my heart . So , we should not waste anymore time and , let’s start !

The term ‘Priority’
This is a complicated word. Everyone has a different meaning and vision of this term. Every meaning is different but it concludes to this one statement : “Priority is the fact or condition of being regarded or treated as more important than others.” Woah , this is a complicated thing to say ! In other and simple words , you label a thing or a person as a priority when you find it as the most important thing among all the things in your life ! Isn’t this weird ? Like how can one decide which is the most important thing and which is not !? You actually care if a person is sad or not when he/she is your priority , you start planning things accordingly if you have a dream job which is your priority.

Now , as you know what is a “priority” , there is also a thing called a “priority list” It is a list where you set all your valuable things of your life according to their importance. First comes first. It means that the first item in your list is the most important. Now , let us understand why this term priorities has become so common and contains what value to people nowadays.

Why Are Priorities Important?
After knowing the meaning of priorities , you might ask the question that why do people even set their priorities and why they cannot live with equal balance in their life ? This is a frequently asked question. People set their priorities because to focus on one goal . This goal can be maintaining a relationship to make it last long , or to get a dream job , or to top your exams , or to achieve your dream ( To read more on dreams : Click here ) Literally your priority can be ANYTHING. It can be as simple as topping a class test or it can be as hard as topping IIT. People make priorities and priority lists so to focus their energy on one goal and to help them keep reminding what is their goal! This is a great process but one can live life on the basis of “Equal Balance” too. People set all their things in an order so they can decide how much time is required for that activity. Some people have a person as their priority. This can be when you fall in love. You always care about the person’s feeling and you always think constantly whether or not that person is happy from you. This is a good feeling but it can be stressful too. Caring just for one person for your whole life is okay but taking his/her feelings too seriously is dangerous and sometimes you even fail to understand yourself and are controlled by his/her thoughts. Nowadays , you can see people talking about their priorities a lot and you see them constantly working with their full focus. But do you know that there is also a great alternative to this ? Let’s see.

Equal Balance
This is a great way to live your life too ! But what does “Equal Balance” mean ? You may have guessed it and it is the same as its name suggests ! Yes , making equal balance in your life and your life tasks , is known as creating an equal balance. But for this to happen , you require proper information and management skills and so , very rare people are able to manage their life and create a ‘equal balance’. Creating a balance between your love life and career is known to be the toughest task one can ever make. Creating a balance means to just give equal values to all the things in your life , to distribute your time equally for each activity / person and to have either 1 or no priority. Equal Balance is clearly different from priority because your time is invested equally in this balance of your choices. These are the obvious reasons you can think so not saying about them much. But you can always choose between these too at any point of your life.

What Is More Important?
You might be asking , then what is more important ? Should we make priorities or should we establish an equal balance in our life? This completely depends on your goals and happiness . If you are ready and have decided to stick to one goal and achieve it , then prioritizing it is the best you can do 🙂 But remember , doing anything in excess makes it harmful for you. What does this mean in context of this topic? It means that you should not forget other things in your life when you have prioritized a goal. Remember , life cannot be just bases on one factor only , it is made by a combination of several other factors and all should be given time ! On the other hand , if you do not have any particular goal or priority in your life , you can do with the second option. Both have equal advantages and disadvantages. If you choose to create an equal balance for your life , you will be good at many fields and you will be able to give time to all things at the same time 🙂 This is a great advantage of it. Whereas , if you want to focus all your energy on one goal like clearing an exam which will take extreme hard-work and dedication , then you should definitely make it your priority ! Decide and act accordingly 🙂
