What do you value most no matter what? • Keep those priorities right in front of your nose at all times. • Say "No" to anything that detracts from your priorities. • Spend your time on your priorities. • Answer these questions: • What hats do you wear and what tasks come with each hat? • What hats can you hang on the hat rack? You can always put a hat back on at a later date. • In what order will you prioritize your hats? Hint: They can't all be number one. • Have you delegated tasks and hats? Have you tossed unnecessary hats and tasks into the dumpster-o-life? Or do you keep precariously stacking hat upon hat? • Have you made time for your physical, mental and emotional health? Remember, you can't give what you don't have. • Are you laughing enough? Everyone will benefit if you get a grin. • Cultivate simple pleasures that take less time and money.
