CHAPTER 1

Introduction

It is easy to organize a desk, a notebook or even a garage. But how easy is it to organize your life? Where do you start? How do you know what is important to you? In this program, I will give you three steps to organizing your life. The Priorities, Roles, and Goals (PRG) program is the "Gateway" to helping you in many areas of your life. Establishing your priorities is the first step. Knowing your roles is the second step. Setting your goals is the third step. After completing the three steps, you will be able to identify areas of your life that you are not paying enough attention to. Certain priorities or roles may need to get dropped if you are overcrowding your life. People of all ages drift through life without direction and they do not realize the untapped potential that they may have. They do not have a sense of purpose or they lack direction about what is important to them. They do not realize that what they do now will affect their future. This plan is designed to help guide young teens and adults toward a more organized life.

My intent with PRG is for you to establish the direction you want your life to go and get you on a pathway to a productive life. Whether you are 15, 50, or any age; the priorities, roles and goals you select are based on your inner core principles and values.

Connect Your PRGs

Establish your priorities, know your roles, and set your goals. Your priorities, roles and goals all must mesh together based on the principles and values that you set for yourself. In this program, you will establish your priorities first. Think about the areas of your life that are most important to you. Once you have established your priorities, you will then take a look at what roles you play in each of your priorities. Ask yourself: What role do I take on in each of my priorities? Who am I? Once you have established your roles, you move to setting goals for each role that you play. This will make your roles and priorities successful. All

PRG will give you an overall outlook on your life; you will still need to posses other characteristics to be a successful person. Passion is the key for success. Passion is the burning desire to do something within you. Setting up your program will give you the confidence to go forward and have a clear understanding of what is important to you. Having confidence in yourself and what you are doing is a key ingredient to being successful.

Spiritual, Mental, and Physical Health

When setting up your PRG program, you must encompass your spiritual, mental and physical health. A weekly spiritual goal for someone of the Christian faith may be to memorize one Bible verse and attend church on a weekly basis. Mental goals are taking time for yourself to relax and clear your head. It could be meditating or reading a book or even going on a vacation. Physical goals could include working out, jogging or anything that will elevate your blood pressure to relieve everyday stress. When you first set up your program, integrate these three essential ingredients. Without having spiritual, mental and physical health, you will not be able to effectively fulfill your priorities, roles or goals. Make sure that you schedule time for each of these on your calendar.

Organizing your PRGs into Your Schedule

When you set up your daily, weekly or monthly schedule, it is essential that you make sure you schedule your time around your priorities, roles and goals. It is important that you see where your PRGs are scheduled. Check to see if you are giving enough time to your main priorities or if you are drifting off course. Setting your schedule and sticking to it is one way to monitor how you are doing with what is important to you.

Being Flexible

Being flexible means that you are able to drop what you are doing and focus your attention elsewhere. If an emergency situation comes up, be prepared to shift gears, even if it is not an item on your priority list. If a friend or a family member encounters a crisis situation, be ready to help and serve in that situation. As a teacher, when a tragic event happens that may affect your students, it would be a time to be flexible and to discuss that situation with your students. When crisis situations arise, you may have to adopt new roles, sometimes unfamiliar, as the situation demand. Crisis situations demand times of flexibility. You may have to temporarily stray from your PRG's.

Finding Your Niche

Answering these questions will help you find your niche in life. Constructing your PRG Program will help you identify your niche. In life, it is imperative that you take a look at yourself and ask what you are good at, what you like to do and where your best potential lay? Think about the talents that you posses. Do you know what they are? Sometimes it takes a long time to figure it out and it may require several re-evaluations of yourself. What you need to understand is that when you do figure out what you want to do with yourself; you have already set yourself up to be able to do that thing. Some students go through high school not sure as to what they want to be, so they do not take their education seriously. By the time they are seniors and decide that they want to go to college, they may have closed the doors on a lot of opportunities because they had not studied hard enough or had not received adequate grades throughout their high school career. Even if you do not know what you want to do, continue to work hard so that when you do figure it out, you will have a huge list of opportunities you may choose from. Do not limit your opportunities.

Reviewing Your PRG's

Reviewing your PRGs is going to be essential to maintaining your program. Some of your PRGs are going to change periodically. The priorities that you establish may not change unless you have an event in your life that dictates otherwise, such as a new job, graduating or other adventures that you need to devote more time to. Your roles will change on occasion but may still fit under your priorities. Roles will get adjusted from time to time and there will be constant re-evaluation around what is really important and what is really necessary. Goals will change based on short term and long term goals. Some goals are set for the rest of your life, but some short term goals could last for less than a week depending on what the goal is. Thus, you constantly think about how you may improve your PRG's.

Contacts

Going through life, hopefully, you will understand how essential it is to make contacts and to get to know people. You have often heard the saying "It's not what you know, but who you know." If this is true, getting to know people and establishing contacts will help you. The reverse is also true, as people may reach out to you for help and you could be a valuable contact for them! Create a resource file with names, how you know them, and how to contact them. A resource file or address book may be used as a reference when you run into trouble or need to contact a friend or an associate.
