The Gifts of Adversity – Gift #3
            “I can’t do everything!” I’ll never catch up!” These were my responses when I looked at my life while going through chemotherapy following a mastectomy for breast cancer. My usual high energy level was cut in half. At times, it was hard to concentrate on what I was doing and what needed to be done. The chemo sessions would last six months! How would I make it? How could I keep it all together?
            Gift #3. Learn to set priorities. If I couldn’t do it all, then I needed to learn what had to be done and what didn’t have to be done, or could be delegated to others, or could wait until a later time. Deciding what was really important began to make life simpler and decision making more effective. By keeping my focus and energy on my priorities, I knew I could get through this. And, I did!
            Professional application:  Set priorities in your business, profession or job. Put them in writing where you can see them every day. And, don’t forget to make yourself your first priority because it all starts with YOU!
