My self
My family
My partner

That’s it. All I do is for these three. But right now, I am really working hard, sometimes ignoring them to get to my goals and have more time with them.

I sure hope I get things straight so that I can may my priorities my priorities.

It's not allowed to be more than six, so this way it makes me focus on only what is really important. Of course the list changes over time but we need to be flexible about things. It's safely tucked away in my Google docs account. I have made a list of my six priorities in life.

I feel that the writers on this site cover a lot of frivolous points. There are a few main ideas that one needs to know in life--including how to find yourself, love yourself for your strengths and flaws, and do what you enjoy. In the end, you will find that an understanding and love for yourself will result in in a kind attitude towards others and will lead you to self-improvement. There are countless sites like this that link "essential" topic after topic. But in reality, they are trying to make a buck--this is how they make their living--never forget that. In sum, I believe you should take what YOU want from articles and websites similar to this, and in the end realize that finding out who you are, loving yourself completely, and doing what you enjoy will render many other self-help articles unnecessary. Wikihow is a great resource to help find out who you are, be yourself, guide you to YOUR vision of success, and also provides tips to improve weaknesses you have.

I am finalizing my trip back home right now, no more procrastinating! Thanks for a great article Ali,

The most important part of life is to keep the most important things as your prioritizes. Make sure your health , family and religion come first and foremost. Do that and everything else will fall into place in term of achieving success. At the end of the day. The most important part of life is to keep the most important things as your prioritizes.

It's Covey's message of putting the big rocks in first. For example, if your family is the most important thing in the world for you, why is your life arranged in such a way that you hardly get to spend any time with them? I like Dave Navarro's technique which you mention here.

One of them is my career, but as a teacher, I think it's a little different than working in sales or something like that.
