This Is What Happens When You Put Your Priorities First

‘When you make sure you put your priorities first, the rest of your life will wrap around and fill in the gaps. … You have to put priorities ahead of the little stuff.’ Chris Hodges

Putting the wrong things ahead of the right things won’t get you to where you want to be. If you want the right things to happen in your life, then you must focus on what is really important to you.

If what you are doing is not what you are supposed to be doing, you are setting yourself up for failure. Because you get what you put into something.

Let us not kid ourselves. If you are not putting the right things first, if you are not taking responsibility for what you are doing, if you are not measuring what you are doing, if you are not paying attention to what is going on in your life, you are not being honest with yourself.

You are playing with your future. Do not do that. Do not limit yourself. God is not going to be happy with you. Because God wants the best for you. Because God wants you do great things in your life. God wants you to be a leader, not a follower.

If you want to be better than you were yesterday, you have got to start putting your priorities first. If you are in doubt, remember that God wants the best for you.
