need to get some order back into my life

I find motivation a hard thing, i'm not lazy i just don't seem to be able to maintain motivation, i will start something and then neglect it after a while. like this blog, although some how i have reagained motivation to blog again after some neglect. i am not really any less busy, maybe i just have trouble sorting out my priorities in life and chop and change them to what suits me at the time. that could be it, or at least part of it, so here goes for a list of priorities in life it will not be a perfectly ordered list but a rough one.

*God and making time focused on Him a daily joy, living life filled with his spirit
*Have fun
*TAFE going to class, doing my assignments and finishing them early, putting in the effort required to make my placement as best as possible,getting up on time to make sure priority one doesn't get screwed
*Work getting there early, getting up on time to make sure priority one doesn't get screwed
*Keeping up my relationships family and friends, local and distant
*Sleep getting to bed by 11pm every weekday night so i can get sleep and get up early(note it is after 11pm already i should go to bed asap)
*Keep contact with and see small group guys growing good fruit pray for them lots
*Keep fit or play sport
*Eat well
*Maintain Blog
*Budget so i don't run out of money
*Plan my weeks in advance so i know what i have to do in advance

Now to try to stick to them

I don't do unorganised very well, need to get some order back into my life

    Imho, "have fun" needs to be a little higher on the list!

    Yeah i said rough list because the top bit is in some kind of order or grouping and the rest just kinda sit all around each other because to have balance means that sometimes each one is its own high priority in its own right

    Yeah, I reckon if you're not having any fun it's likely that it'll be pretty diffcult to do any of the others. It's all interdependant.
    I noticed you've added Mark Riessen to you blogrool. Have you had any contact with him in Adelaide?

    fun is now higher so as to not confuse people into thinking that i rate fun lowly in life, trust me i rate it pretty high, although when i think about it i probably haven't had alot of fun in the last couple weeks, i think i have been too depressed, i am working on changing this, fun keeps you sane when things go insane, fun lets go and flys free, fun brings people together

    Very good ideas to implement. You have analysed your situation and the hard part is applying the changes. I think there is something in the list that everyone can take action to.
