WELL.. i am goal oriented person.... my first priority in life is Education... this is what my parents do not think about this before ... all what they think is to eat three times a day.. but they change when i emphasized and give so much value on it..... I really believe education is one of your sharpest weapon to struggle in life... and it wont stop as you can access learning... and my second priority is my family .. they are my inspiration..... and third is money... to make things possible as you enjoy the beauty of life....
what about you????

My top priority in life is defeniatly my family, hands down! ESPECIALLY my nieces and nephew...they are more than just a priority, they are my life! I can't even imagine life without them sooo they are defeniatly more important than ANYTHING in my life, even myself.
My second priority...hmmm...my pets. I think of my pets as my family, so it only makes sense that they are a top priority too. I live with 3 dogs, 3 cats, 2 birds and 2 beta fish. I love them all, they're my babies! :) Especially my Persian cat!
My third priority...I would say my third priority is something I don't have yet...and it's hard to explain. My third priority is my future...and there are a couple things I want in life...I want to get a chance to experience college, and I want to open an animal sanctuary.

I am in twneties now. I have felt that my priorities in life changed over years. When I was a student, my priority was education and earn money. Now, as I grew older my priorities have changed. As all of them who responded above said, my first priority is health, then comes family and love, then comes making money. Another priority which has been continuing from my childhood and which will never change in my life is my religion and prayers. That is always the first.

My first priority is health,the same to the above.Before you want to do anything,you must keep healthy.
The second is love and friends.If some one have no love and no friend,he is so lonely.
the third is money.You can dislike it,but you can not do without it.The same to you!

The top three priorities in my life are
1) My Family (includes my girlfriend) :)
2) Education (I need to earn and support my family)
3) Happiness ( I like to stay happy even in glum situations, I always try to stay happy and do things that helps me stay happy).
Happy Mylotting!!

Hi abirsinha, it was great to see your post,specially the point 1 of it.My priorities are somewhat similar. They are:
1)My family(includes abirsinha)-that is to keep them happy ,but i dont know how much i really achieve of that.
2)Enjoying life-this I cannot give up at any cost and it includes EATING GOOD FOOD ofcourse
3)Making money-that could be ranging from MyLotting to asking for pocket money from parents.

hi jenely,
Previously i also used to think about priorities in life but now i am vexed about doing those things and stopped thinking about it. The reason for being vexed is due to repeated failures in life.I tried to do by first perferred priority which is education up to master degree in destintion but it was unsatisfactory as i could not acheive good results in my education which is an drawback for me as i wanted to secure destintion results in my whole education. I could not blame my parents even though they were partial responsible for spoiling my education. Another priority is health which is a great assert to do any thing in life which is could not acheive right from my childhood. I was born with Jaudice and after that through out my education i faced some or the other health problem.
Now i thing you could have understand why i was vexed.With first two failure which are interlinked i couldnt acheive a good job which was my third priority and now i stop thinking about the priorities as i think they are not meant for me. Even if i set a goal some force is stopping me in acheiving it.

Your top three priorities in life is very good.My first priority in life is God.I start my day in the morning by reading the bible and praying.My second priority is my family as i have to take care of them.My third priority in life would be money as i can earn it by hard work and the strength which is given to me from God and the support from my family members.

I agree, it is important to have goals in life. I think these change with your life when you get older, but right now the most important things for me are 1) to be healthy, 2) to be happy and 3) to be successful. But in some respect all of these link together. My wish to have a family is part of it, as is the love of my husband.

I really only want three things from life; a warm safe place to sleep, food to sustain myself, and to be surrounded by people I love(that hopefully love me too!)
I really can't put them in any order, I need them all equally.

My top three priorities in life would have to be...
1. Money
2. My own space
3. Education
These are my top three priorities in life and some of the top three things that take up most of my time. Some people may think it's wrong to have money as your first priority, but I am also 17 years old and this is a huge issue in my life, so it kinda takes up first place. Secondly I love having my own free time, with just myself...this is kinda hard to do, but, without it I wouldn't be able to function. My third priority is education, this is really important to me as well and as soon as I'm done with high school I want to go to college.
I know that later in my life these priorities will change.

I'm afraid I fall short, but I want my priorities to be (1) to be loyal to Jesus Christ (2) to be loyal to my family and (3) to be loyal to my country. Sounds high and mighty, doesn't it? I assure you I'm not.

My top priority in life is to serve the Lord Jesus Christ. This is so because with Jesus all other priorites will fail. He is able to help us focus, discipline and accept life's many challenges as go on. With Christ we can attain our goal in the right manner. I also like your second priority and that is family, this setting is key. All that we do relates in one way or the other to family. It is from this institution that education, marriage, money,cultural idenity and many other attributes come. If the family is has the priority with God and his son the Lord Jesus Christ then we would have order, love and care for each other instead of hate, fights and the many vices that go on.

My three priorities in life are my children and husband (family), then comes means of providing for myself and my family...in this i am not just talking about money, but trust, love, friendship, and money, then would come following my dreams. My husband and I always swore we would follow our dreams, and I supported him the past 12 years helping him follow his dream and accomplishing his ultimate goal, so now it's my turn:) I return back to college in January
