Priorities

In my judgment, we never will have balance in our lives unless our finances are  securely under control.

From this talk...M. Russell Ballard.  Keeping Life's Demands in Balance. April 1987...these are the things he mentions...

6)  Rest, exercise, relaxation...schedule time...Good appearance
7) Family Home Evening
8) Pray often individually and as families



A life that gets out of balance is much like a car tire that is out of balance. It will make the operation of the car rough and unsafe. Tires in perfect balance can give a smooth and comfortable ride. So it is with life. The ride through mortality can be smoother for us when we strive to stay in balance. Our main goal should be to seek “immortality and eternal life” (Moses 1:39). With this as our goal, why not eliminate from our lives the things that clamor for and consume our thoughts, feelings, and energies without contributing to our reaching that goal?
