 Life priorities:
1. Faith
2. Family
3. Health
4. Work
5. Hobby 
 Very close to what I wrote, note139fprln3wg2ne63n2886ll3clulveltq0j493apfy4e9knejstwqn6hv3q 
 Be careful with #2. A husband is called to die for his wife if necessary (Ephesians 5:25), so his self-preservation can't be above his family. For this reason, I have my priorities arranged as God, then family, and lastly, self. However, to live out the servant leadership we are called to for others, you first have to rightly order yourself; in that sense, the self is higher. 
 Correct, and that’s the context I’m coming from.

We also cannot give from an empty cup.

So ensuring we are in the right place is critical to how we show up for our family 
 Also, in the business world a lot of hustle and grinders (which I’m fervently against) put their business and “others” first.

God often last

And their family gets what’s left over from the day of work and the man is a shambles inside because he isn’t taking care of himself so that he can die for his family if he needs to.

As with everything, there is context and nuance to be applied 
 Not too dissimilar from my thoughts on the topic note139fprln3wg2ne63n2886ll3clulveltq0j493apfy4e9knejstwqn6hv3q
