Why You Must Prioritize Yourself First

Scott Smith - Motivation and Coaching
About this episode

If you spend any time listening to me at all, it won’t take long before you hear me screaming from the tops of the mountains to ignore the agenda and propaganda-filled world we live in and focus on yourself. 

Here’s the truth...

Nobody is thinking about you and what you do. That means that you need to pay attention to yourself because nobody else will.

Some folks find that way of thinking difficult because society would make you believe that you must do what everybody else is doing to be successful. 

Let’s think about that for a minute.

Is everybody more successful than you or is everybody pretty much in the same boat as you?

You know the answer. So, who is more successful than you?

It’s the people that are out in front leading the masses. You know, the ones who paid attention to what they wanted, thought it through and convinced everybody else to support them on their mission.

Here’s another truth…

When you think about yourself first, you’ll have time to think about others too. Like they say, “If it’s to be, it’s up to me!”
