Prioritizing is a skill that helps us deal with stress and achieve our goals. In life, as we move from one phase to the next, we keep choosing what is more important to us. For examples

1. Studying or working to earn money.
2. Building a romantic relationship or the next due promotion.
3. Prioritizing our health or working 24X 7.

When in chaos and bombarded with too many tasks at once, we prioritize on a moment-to-moment and daily basis what we value more and work accordingly.
