Meditations on God

In order to prioritize what is important, you must learn how to say no to that which is unimportant.

Overcommitting yourself makes you less effective.

You cannot be of real use to others if you are stretched too thin.

If you are overextended, you cannot even take care of yourself properly.

You must decide what is important and dedicate yourself to that.

This means turning away from distractions.

More difficult, however, it also means turning down opportunities that do not align with your priorities.
