RE: YOUR Priorities versus Other People's Priorities

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

More external priorities than internal priorities for me. I think for the most part, it comes with age, the older we get, the less time we focus on our own priorities. But there's definitely also a whole set of priorities that's inherited from the age we live in which influences what we do on a basic level. Get rich early or get married young, for example.

I guess more people read it as ego-driven priorities what I described there at the personal level briefly, in what was unfortunately a quicker post after I lost my initial one on another theme.

YOUR priorities can be about your family or children, or about helping out others. What I meant is how much was your decision in your priorities and how much you got influenced by what others say or do, sometimes going in a direction you'd rather not (or maybe even should not).

Yes, that's the first impression lol. In the above sense, I think then much of it will be influenced by what others say or do, and with time we somehow adopt them as our own priorities because we want to belong or move towards the same direction with the tribe. There are also persistent individual priorities that never leave us despite not putting much effort into them.
