Priorities are prior commitments. They are advance directives. They set the course for the future by eliminating the need to make decisions that have already been made.

The question of whether it is easier to set a priority or to keep one is a viable concern. In fact, it may vary from person to person. You may be someone who has to analyze the living daylights out of every issue that comes before you and still be indecisive. You will find it very hard to set a priority and quite a relief once you have done so.

You may, however, be a person who makes quick decisions by has a hard time sticking with them. You fly by the seat of your pants and are subject to emotional variations. You are going to struggle with priorities on the back end.

Whatever you personality or decision making style, success in networking is going to require the development of skills in the area of priorites.

This is an excellent topic for an entrepreneur's table.
