In both work and life, we are constantly prioritizing and deprioritizing—it’s an ongoing trade-off. Every choice means gaining something and letting go of something else. But in that process, we must be careful not to lose clarity, focus, or integrity. We must also remember not to sideline our own well-being—physical, mental, and professional.
Not all our priorities will align with others’, and common ground may not always be possible. That’s why it’s important to know your purpose and stand by it. Sometimes relationships matter more than success; other times, success takes center stage. The balance shifts, but what matters most is being intentional about where we place our time, energy, and heart.
Worth Said ma’am.
