A Christian Entrepreneurs Godly Priority

A Closer Look at Priorities

What are your priorities? One way of finding out what your priorities truly are is to observe how you spend your time and your money. Those areas of your life that receive the most time and money are your priorities. The question is - are our priorities ordered correctly?

One of the reasons we believe so strongly in helping people participate in Free Enterprise, Entrepreneurship, and Personal Business Ownership, is that once a person’s business is properly and successfully established, they begin having access to more time and money, thereby becoming much more likely to live their life in a more fulfilling manner. They are more likely to optimize other, more important areas of their life.

Stated another way, successful entrepreneurship can afford us the luxury of being able to spend more time and more money on the things that are truly important – Godly ordained priorities. Rather than being enslaved by money (making it), we can gradually be freed from the necessity of creating it, and begin living our lives in a more exciting, meaningful, and rewarding fashion!

The following categories of priorities are placed in order of importance, as believed and taught by the officers, trainers and speakers associated with Advantage Conferences. You may be surprised to notice that “business” falls into 4th place in order of importance. However, it is that very category that can help fortify the other three categories - helping them become more fully optimized. Indeed, successful business can be the facilitator to a wonderful life!

God

I believe it is time for people to approach life’s priorities more seriously. Someone once said that so much time is spent at work (a corporation) that their job becomes their god! That may be a bit hard to comprehend, but it is undeniably true that too many people place too much dependence on a job, a salary, and a company for which they work. Those things can insidiously become our gods if our trust is on them rather than Creator God.
