Prioritization is something that we all have to do in life. The struggle comes when we try to actually prioritize. What does it mean? How does it work most effectively? What is it we are actually trying to do? The aim of this writing is to help you with thoughts and resources to answer those very questions.

NOTES:

Prioritization is something used to make sure we get certain things done before other things. The reason for that order is because of the impacts of if we do not do those things in that order. So we have to look at the impacts. We also have to at some point factor in fairness otherwise we get some people being harmed though no fault of their own.

Ultimately the impacts are the effects to someone or some organizations needs. Needs being the things that if not fulfilled damage is done. At some point that damage destroys the system.

For instance, people need water and food. You are going to die sooner without one of those, so that thing that you will die sooner without is the thing you have a higher priority of aquiring. If you aquire the other first, you won’t be able to use it because the other thing is what you need first and you didn’t get it so now you aren’t able to do anything at all.
