I often wonder where people learn how to set priorities. I haven't figured out an answer to this. Sometimes I think it is learned from parents but then I see teens who don't have priorities that are close to there parents. Then I think that maybe it is culture that tells us how to set or priorities. But, then I see teens and adults who fly in the face of the priorities that culture sets.
So what has influenced your priorities? parents, culture, personal Bible study, friends?
What I believe is essential tends to form my priorities. Unfortunately, things that others think are important often try to muscle their way on to my priority list.
ReplyDeleteI have to continually remind myself what is essential to be able to overcome the important.
Just my two cents worth.
