Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hello everyone.
I'm Marianna, creator of theDay Dynamic show and your guide
to remind you to line with yourown dynamic well-being every day
.
Today we are focusing on ourunscripted and unpredictable
off-the-cuff recording on thesubject of priorities, but not
(00:27):
just setting priorities, butactually getting clarity on what
is a priority in your life andfor what reason.
So with this show, it will helpplant the seed so you become
more aware around this topic andrealize there's no when size
(00:53):
fits all path.
Choose what serves you andfeels right for you around this
subject.
Now, if you have ever listenedto one of our off-the-cuff, it
is unscripted and unpredictable.
Sometimes I scribble down somenotes and sometimes I just
(01:15):
something's in my head and Ineed to address it and in this
case, there has been severalsituations lately where it has
showed me that I was not apriority to others.
Now, that's not a poor mestatement.
(01:41):
That is not a statement aboutall.
Of course you're not.
That's common sense.
But for me, when I put othersas a priority and we'll clarify
sort of what priority means whenyou put others as a priority,
(02:08):
then sometimes I think and maybeI need to feel this a little
bit out more is that I want tobe treated like I treat them.
I'm expecting them to act likeI act towards them, and we're
talking about what we wouldconsider friends or strong
(02:31):
acquaintances or family membersor someone that is in your life
a lot that you care about.
Now what this has ultimatelyshown me because I know how the
law of attraction works I get it.
(02:52):
I've attracted this to myselffor a reason, and that reason
could be to help me, it could beto help others or it could be
to help a situation, but becauseI'm involved, then I know that
I co-created this on some level.
And if you take that approachon most things in your life,
(03:17):
then you'll understand your lifea lot better.
When, like, something happensor something unfolds and you're
like, oh, I co-created this,okay, if you can take the
perspective of that, or even beopen to that perspective, then
it really will help have youhave a different perspective on
(03:40):
life and it may change up a lotof things for you and then you
feel so much more empowered.
But back to this priority stuff.
What it really ultimatelyshowed me was that I was not
making myself a priority, that Iwas making others a priority,
(04:07):
because I just tend to want toserve and take care of others
and be that teacher that I amand that thoughtful, great
friend that I am.
So someone's looking for agreat friend here I am and that
will expect the same back fromthose people that I do call
(04:31):
friends.
Now, there's acquaintances andthere's friends, and there's
situational people that you hangout in like certain areas or
certain times as well.
When you are a true friend tome, then I will be one of the
most supportive and lovingpeople and be your cheerleader.
(04:55):
Hopefully that you have friendslike that in your life, that
you make a priority.
Can you relate to anything likethis?
Have you had these situationswhere it's like, hey, I'm not
feeling I'm getting back whatI'm giving out and not that you
(05:17):
expect by giving that you get.
You should give because youwant to give, but when life is
showing you and situations areshowing you around you that
you're not a priority to others,or your situation or experience
or part of your journey is justyou're just not that priority
(05:39):
because people show you.
So if you're willing to payattention and you can make all
the excuses in the world forothers which you tend to do when
you do love or care for them.
It just really is showing you,hey, they're showing me, they're
playing apart for me, they'retelling me which whether we have
(06:02):
this agreement or not, beforewe even came to this journey
that we call life here is thatevery once in a while they're
going to help remind us thatyou're not putting yourself
first, you're not puttingyourself as a priority, you're
not taking care of you, you'renot having that self-care,
(06:25):
you're putting others moreimportant than yourself, and
that your own connection withyour own inner being and your
own guidance is getting put tothe sideline because you're
actually not making that apriority in your life.
Again to our listeners, can yourelate?
And I would say, if people areaware of what's happening in
(06:51):
their life, I'm sure that atsome level that they absolutely
have had time where thepriorities just maybe are not in
full alignment.
And I'm a side note to that,because I can feel sometimes
(07:12):
when I do these podcasts, I canalmost hear what others are
going to say and although I canbe clear with what serves me,
you need to be clear with whatserves you.
So it's not a selfish thing tomake yourself a priority.
(07:36):
And we've said this in many ofour resources, through the
dynamics series through the kiddynamics and obviously through
this dynamic show, is it's okayto make yourself a priority
Permission given right now.
If you're looking for it, thereit is.
(07:57):
We're here again to remind youabout this.
But let's get a little bitdeeper, because I had a
conversation with my husband itwas actually last night and we
were sitting outside and I justsaid, you know, I'm just
(08:17):
recognizing now that this thingand that thing and this thing
and that thing and thissituation and this person and
this.
And I just said to him it'slike I don't know if I should do
like a podcast and be likesuper emotional about this and
you know, and really do it froma poor me thing.
(08:42):
But I can't go there because Iknow better.
And then I thought, can I do itfrom a emotional, angry thing?
And I'm like, okay, well, howdoes that serve, other than I'm
getting my anger out or mydisappointment or my out of
alignment emotions out, like howdoes that really serve in the
(09:04):
moment?
I mean, I guess it does servein the moment because you want
to feel better.
So getting things out obviouslyhelps.
And then I said to him I justneed you to sit and just listen
because I just need to get itall out, and I sometimes, when I
(09:24):
verbally get it out, it's great.
And then I do some journalingor writing down or blog or
whatever it might be, to get mytrue time with myself, get it
out and get it out of paper.
And then so once we startedtalking a little bit, I said I
(09:50):
think I'm doing a blog on thistomorrow.
I think that it can help lotsof people and help me just get
it out, because a lot of timeswhen I'm doing this off the cuff
, I'm just because it'sunscripted, it's just whatever
message.
I always do an intention beforeI do these podcasts and I just
go okay, what do I need to sharefor alignment and healing and
(10:11):
balance and what can help otherpeople relate to this and do
take home tools later towardsthe end of the podcast which can
really help.
So he goes like, yeah, I thinkyou should.
Then and I said, good, and if Ihave emotions during it, so be
(10:33):
it.
He says yeah, so be it, just beyou.
And it was a great thing,because what it also had me
remember is an idea that I hadfor another podcast, which is
what is your listening language?
You know we have love language,we have support language.
(10:55):
We have I don't know how manyother languages we have out
there of how we relate, how welisten, like using all our
senses, and I think I'm going todo one on listening language.
I know sounds good.
If you see one in our eitherblogs and or podcasts, then,
(11:19):
yeah, by all means listen to it.
I think it would be great.
So, speaking of blogs, we wrotea blog on are your priorities
aligned with your true self?
Now, sometimes you just have totake a moment, reflect about
that is your priorities alignedwith your true self?
(11:41):
But it's not even about that onthis podcast, this is just a
blog with a different take on it, because it does help you set
your priorities a little bit.
This is more about are youreminding yourself to align with
your own dynamic well being bytaking care of yourself and
(12:05):
making yourself a priority, andthen maybe even balancing that
expectation around.
What are you expecting fromothers?
Because, no disrespect, youwill get disappointed Because
other people are doing their ownthing.
So, again, it's always aboutbalancing your own alignment
(12:26):
with you around any subject, andpriorities are one of those
subjects.
Now, if you have been with usfor a while.
Then you know that we alwaysusually do a definition if you
don't know what a certain wordmeans, and that's just to help
along the way with a startingpoint of what the online
(12:53):
dictionary will say, and thenyou can decide how you actually
want it to be.
That tends to be what peoplehave accepted as a definition
for a word, and you know that'sup to you what you want it to be
.
So the definition of priorityfrom the online dictionary says
the fact or condition of beingregarded or treated as more
(13:16):
important, or a thing that isregarded as more important than
another.
Now, I don't want to think thatanyone is more important,
although I do know that they are.
As a person, we're all like aunique, authentic individual,
(13:40):
and I think that's.
I think that's a beautifulthing.
I guess what it is is what'smore important for me, what I
want to make a priority.
So when I'm making others apriority, my expectation is they
will at some point show me thatI'm important to them, and when
it doesn't, that's why I dothings like this, a podcast.
(14:04):
Then I thought about like, whatare some of the things that are
a priority to me in my life?
Not in any particular order.
The first one should be myself,my self care, physical, mental,
emotional, spiritual, myoverall well-being.
I would say, right up there isa family, like spouses, kids,
(14:34):
you know, direct family, bloodfamily and whoever else you
consider your heart of yourfamily, you know.
And then there's things likethe health and the relationships
and the home and the educationand the work and the enjoyment
and, again, whatever isimportant to you and like.
(14:56):
Priorities change all the time.
What might be a priority for metoday is not a priority for me
tomorrow or even in this moment.
It might not be a priority forme the next moment.
But I just want to get backinto that, how I felt with these
(15:19):
different situations, and Ithink that would be helpful.
These different situationshappened.
It showed me that I was not apriority and that's okay because
people have their own priority.
It's okay now because I'vethought about it and balanced it
and reminded myself that, hey,listen, thank you, thank you,
(15:41):
thank you to those people thatdidn't make me a priority.
So I again I'm showing myselfthat I need to make myself a
priority.
I really do.
And are you making yourself apriority along the way Now being
(16:02):
a priority, if you look at thedefinition, is just making
something more important andyou're with yourself all the
times.
You need to make yourself thatpriority, because people that
want to be in service can't giveif they have nothing to give.
If they're not filled upthemselves, then they're just
(16:23):
only giving you half of whatthey are, quarter or 10% or
whatever it might be.
Sometimes people don'tunderstand how to do that
self-care and that priority forthemselves.
That saying of people alwaysshow you who they are.
(16:45):
So pay attention For thosepeople that are important.
Just like have thatconversation.
This is what I want, this iswhat I expect.
This is what a friendship meansto me.
This is what an acquaintance is.
Some people do not have thecapacity to do that and that is
(17:06):
okay, but you need to find outwhere they fit in your own life.
And then it's funny sometimeswhen I've made people priorities
and then I back off a littlebit to do priorities for me,
then all of a sudden they'recoming to me.
So it's quite a Quite, a lot ofattraction thing if you just
(17:32):
look at your life.
If you can take any subject inyour life and look at, a lot of
attraction is working in it.
Priorities is usually part ofthat as well.
So let's go to our take hometools.
Here in my world are many waysto set priorities for, like
(18:01):
either my day or my week or myyear or you know whatever in
priority.
Sometimes it's not a goal, it'sjust what is important to me
right now.
I had to sit down and afterlast night and actually woke up
(18:23):
early this morning with the dogsand I just said I'm going to
make a list of my priorities andwhat's important to me right
now, like write that down.
And then another take home toolmight be, instead of writing it
(18:44):
physically with your own hand,like just make that an online
version of the list and then youcan put it in calendars for
reminders.
And if you have to put likethings on your mirror, if you
have a smartphone, put it onyour backdrop just to look at it
, set yourself reminders thatpop up and then you know, just
(19:08):
to remind you something aboutwhatever one of your lists are
on, your priorities, or maybejust something that pops up in
your phone to go, hey, you arethe most unique, authentic
person and making yourself apriority right in this moment,
(19:30):
no matter what you're doing.
Take that breath, say somethingknowing, affirmative or mantra,
or something that really groundsyou and balances you and makes
yourself that priority.
You know I'm not talking about.
I mean making yourself apriority can be as fast as 30
(19:54):
seconds to a minute, becauseyou're taking, you're saying at
this moment I am more importantthan what is going on right now
in my life.
You don't have to sit for hoursand hours and hours although if
you have that time, that'sgreat but when it comes up, when
something comes up, just askyourself what is my priority
(20:15):
here?
Is someone asked you to dosomething?
Is this a priority for me?
Someone wants you to gosomewhere?
Is this a priority whensomeone's you know, hey, whether
it's hey mom or hey this or heydad or hey Mariana, or a text
or an email or whatever, makeyourself the priority over it.
(20:37):
Don't just run or answer it, oranswer the phone or do whatever
if right at that moment, it'snot a priority for you, because
if that is so important, theywill text back, they'll call
back or do whatever and go.
Hey, I just you know I reallyneed your help.
(20:58):
Or you'll listen to thevoicemail they leave you, or
you'll read the email or readthe text or whatever it might be
, whatever situation you're inas far as how you communicate
back and forth, and I think this, sometimes a word, no can be a
(21:18):
very self-care, priority word.
You know it's all going to beunique to each individual.
You need to soothe yourself,nourish your soul, and we've had
so many resources, so manyblogs, so many podcasts, vehicle
(21:39):
videos, one-minute reminders ofhow to do that.
But you know what that is Like.
I just looked at my top 10 listagain, my top 10 feel-good list
, and right at that moment thatwas a priority for me is just to
read that and feel that, feelthose 10 things on my list, and
(22:01):
just take that time to align andto balance.
And again, you are the best atknowing what works for you.
So are you ready now to alignwith your own dynamic well-being
when it comes to prioritiesEvery day, or at least be on the
(22:27):
path to it?
I mean, we always appreciatewhen you subscribe or share, as
always if it serves you, if youfeel there's value in what we
are talking about on thispodcast.
So, as we close up, we justwant to say hey, we have lots of
(22:52):
great shows coming up and lotsof past recordings that have
been great and go see whatserves you, or go to
dynamicshowinfo and explore ourgreat resources.
Need to add that all materialsare copyrighted and are for
international.
Yeah, it's because this show, Iwas reminded, is international,
(23:17):
is for informational purposes.
So until we meet again, thankyou, thank you.
Thank you for listening andmaking yourself a priority, and
we always love when people sendin how they do that, because
we're all co-creating with eachother.
(23:37):
We're all helping each otherout, so make it a dynamic day.
Bye for now.

Now what this has ultimatelyshown me because I know how the

(02:52):
I've attracted this to myselffor a reason, and that reason

But back to this priority stuff.
What it really ultimatelyshowed me was that I was not
making myself a priority, that Iwas making others a priority,
(04:07):
because I just tend to want toserve and take care of others
and be that teacher that I amand that thoughtful, great

So someone's looking for agreat friend here I am and that

Now, there's acquaintances andthere's friends, and there's
situational people that you hangout in like certain areas or

When you are a true friend tome, then I will be one of the
most supportive and lovingpeople and be your cheerleader.
(04:55):
Hopefully that you have friendslike that in your life, that
you make a priority.
Can you relate to anything likethis?
Have you had these situationswhere it's like, hey, I'm not
feeling I'm getting back whatI'm giving out and not that you
(05:17):
expect by giving that you get.
You should give because youwant to give, but when life is
showing you and situations areshowing you around you that
you're not a priority to others,or your situation or experience
or part of your journey is justyou're just not that priority
(05:39):
because people show you.
So if you're willing to payattention and you can make all
the excuses in the world forothers which you tend to do when
you do love or care for them.
It just really is showing you,hey, they're showing me, they're
playing apart for me, they'retelling me which whether we have

(06:25):
you're putting others moreimportant than yourself, and
that your own connection withyour own inner being and your
own guidance is getting put tothe sideline because you're
actually not making that apriority in your life.
Again to our listeners, can yourelate?
And I would say, if people areaware of what's happening in
(06:51):
their life, I'm sure that atsome level that they absolutely
have had time where thepriorities just maybe are not in
full alignment.
And I'm a side note to that,because I can feel sometimes
(07:12):
when I do these podcasts, I canalmost hear what others are
going to say and although I canbe clear with what serves me,
you need to be clear with whatserves you.
So it's not a selfish thing tomake yourself a priority.
(07:36):
And we've said this in many ofour resources, through the
dynamics series through the kiddynamics and obviously through
this dynamic show, is it's okayto make yourself a priority
Permission given right now.
If you're looking for it, thereit is.
(07:57):
We're here again to remind youabout this.
But let's get a little bitdeeper, because I had a
conversation with my husband itwas actually last night and we
were sitting outside and I justsaid, you know, I'm just
(08:17):
recognizing now that this thingand that thing and this thing
and that thing and thissituation and this person and
this.
And I just said to him it'slike I don't know if I should do
like a podcast and be likesuper emotional about this and
you know, and really do it froma poor me thing.
(08:42):
But I can't go there because Iknow better.
And then I thought, can I do itfrom a emotional, angry thing?
And I'm like, okay, well, howdoes that serve, other than I'm
getting my anger out or mydisappointment or my out of
alignment emotions out, like howdoes that really serve in the
(09:04):
moment?
I mean, I guess it does servein the moment because you want
to feel better.
So getting things out obviouslyhelps.
And then I said to him I justneed you to sit and just listen
because I just need to get itall out, and I sometimes, when I
(09:24):
verbally get it out, it's great.
And then I do some journalingor writing down or blog or
whatever it might be, to get mytrue time with myself, get it
out and get it out of paper.
And then so once we startedtalking a little bit, I said I
(09:50):
think I'm doing a blog on thistomorrow.
I think that it can help lotsof people and help me just get
it out, because a lot of timeswhen I'm doing this off the cuff
, I'm just because it'sunscripted, it's just whatever
message.
I always do an intention beforeI do these podcasts and I just
go okay, what do I need to sharefor alignment and healing and
(10:11):
balance and what can help otherpeople relate to this and do
take home tools later towardsthe end of the podcast which can
really help.
So he goes like, yeah, I thinkyou should.
Then and I said, good, and if Ihave emotions during it, so be
(10:33):
it.
He says yeah, so be it, just beyou.
And it was a great thing,because what it also had me
remember is an idea that I hadfor another podcast, which is
what is your listening language?
You know we have love language,we have support language.
(10:55):
We have I don't know how manyother languages we have out
there of how we relate, how welisten, like using all our
senses, and I think I'm going todo one on listening language.
I know sounds good.
If you see one in our eitherblogs and or podcasts, then,
(11:19):
yeah, by all means listen to it.
I think it would be great.
So, speaking of blogs, we wrotea blog on are your priorities
aligned with your true self?
Now, sometimes you just have totake a moment, reflect about
that is your priorities alignedwith your true self?
(11:41):
But it's not even about that onthis podcast, this is just a
blog with a different take on it, because it does help you set
your priorities a little bit.
This is more about are youreminding yourself to align with
your own dynamic well being bytaking care of yourself and
(12:05):
making yourself a priority, andthen maybe even balancing that
expectation around.
What are you expecting fromothers?
Because, no disrespect, youwill get disappointed Because
other people are doing their ownthing.
So, again, it's always aboutbalancing your own alignment
(12:26):
with you around any subject, andpriorities are one of those
subjects.
Now, if you have been with usfor a while.
Then you know that we alwaysusually do a definition if you
don't know what a certain wordmeans, and that's just to help
along the way with a startingpoint of what the online
(12:53):
dictionary will say, and thenyou can decide how you actually
want it to be.
That tends to be what peoplehave accepted as a definition
for a word, and you know that'sup to you what you want it to be
.
So the definition of priorityfrom the online dictionary says
the fact or condition of beingregarded or treated as more
(13:16):
important, or a thing that isregarded as more important than
another.
Now, I don't want to think thatanyone is more important,
although I do know that they are.
As a person, we're all like aunique, authentic individual,
(13:40):
and I think that's.
I think that's a beautifulthing.
I guess what it is is what'smore important for me, what I
want to make a priority.
So when I'm making others apriority, my expectation is they
will at some point show me thatI'm important to them, and when
it doesn't, that's why I dothings like this, a podcast.
(14:04):
Then I thought about like, whatare some of the things that are
a priority to me in my life?
Not in any particular order.
The first one should be myself,my self care, physical, mental,
emotional, spiritual, myoverall well-being.
I would say, right up there isa family, like spouses, kids,
(14:34):
you know, direct family, bloodfamily and whoever else you
consider your heart of yourfamily, you know.
And then there's things likethe health and the relationships
and the home and the educationand the work and the enjoyment
and, again, whatever isimportant to you and like.
(14:56):
Priorities change all the time.
What might be a priority for metoday is not a priority for me
tomorrow or even in this moment.
It might not be a priority forme the next moment.
But I just want to get backinto that, how I felt with these
(15:19):
different situations, and Ithink that would be helpful.
These different situationshappened.
It showed me that I was not apriority and that's okay because
people have their own priority.
It's okay now because I'vethought about it and balanced it
and reminded myself that, hey,listen, thank you, thank you,
(15:41):
thank you to those people thatdidn't make me a priority.
So I again I'm showing myselfthat I need to make myself a
priority.
I really do.
And are you making yourself apriority along the way Now being
(16:02):
a priority, if you look at thedefinition, is just making
something more important andyou're with yourself all the
times.
You need to make yourself thatpriority, because people that
want to be in service can't giveif they have nothing to give.
If they're not filled upthemselves, then they're just
(16:23):
only giving you half of whatthey are, quarter or 10% or
whatever it might be.
Sometimes people don'tunderstand how to do that
self-care and that priority forthemselves.
That saying of people alwaysshow you who they are.
(16:45):
So pay attention For thosepeople that are important.
Just like have thatconversation.
This is what I want, this iswhat I expect.
This is what a friendship meansto me.
This is what an acquaintance is.
Some people do not have thecapacity to do that and that is
(17:06):
okay, but you need to find outwhere they fit in your own life.
And then it's funny sometimeswhen I've made people priorities
and then I back off a littlebit to do priorities for me,
then all of a sudden they'recoming to me.
So it's quite a Quite, a lot ofattraction thing if you just
(17:32):
look at your life.
If you can take any subject inyour life and look at, a lot of
attraction is working in it.
Priorities is usually part ofthat as well.
So let's go to our take hometools.
Here in my world are many waysto set priorities for, like
(18:01):
either my day or my week or myyear or you know whatever in
priority.
Sometimes it's not a goal, it'sjust what is important to me
right now.
I had to sit down and afterlast night and actually woke up
(18:23):
early this morning with the dogsand I just said I'm going to
make a list of my priorities andwhat's important to me right
now, like write that down.
And then another take home toolmight be, instead of writing it
(18:44):
physically with your own hand,like just make that an online
version of the list and then youcan put it in calendars for
reminders.
And if you have to put likethings on your mirror, if you
have a smartphone, put it onyour backdrop just to look at it
, set yourself reminders thatpop up and then you know, just
(19:08):
to remind you something aboutwhatever one of your lists are
on, your priorities, or maybejust something that pops up in
your phone to go, hey, you arethe most unique, authentic
person and making yourself apriority right in this moment,
(19:30):
no matter what you're doing.
Take that breath, say somethingknowing, affirmative or mantra,
or something that really groundsyou and balances you and makes
yourself that priority.
You know I'm not talking about.
I mean making yourself apriority can be as fast as 30
(19:54):
seconds to a minute, becauseyou're taking, you're saying at
this moment I am more importantthan what is going on right now
in my life.
You don't have to sit for hoursand hours and hours although if
you have that time, that'sgreat but when it comes up, when
something comes up, just askyourself what is my priority
(20:15):
here?
Is someone asked you to dosomething?
Is this a priority for me?
Someone wants you to gosomewhere?
Is this a priority whensomeone's you know, hey, whether
it's hey mom or hey this or heydad or hey Mariana, or a text
or an email or whatever, makeyourself the priority over it.
(20:37):
Don't just run or answer it, oranswer the phone or do whatever
if right at that moment, it'snot a priority for you, because
if that is so important, theywill text back, they'll call
back or do whatever and go.
Hey, I just you know I reallyneed your help.
(20:58):
Or you'll listen to thevoicemail they leave you, or
you'll read the email or readthe text or whatever it might be
, whatever situation you're inas far as how you communicate
back and forth, and I think this, sometimes a word, no can be a
(21:18):
very self-care, priority word.
You know it's all going to beunique to each individual.
You need to soothe yourself,nourish your soul, and we've had
so many resources, so manyblogs, so many podcasts, vehicle
(21:39):
videos, one-minute reminders ofhow to do that.
But you know what that is Like.
I just looked at my top 10 listagain, my top 10 feel-good list
, and right at that moment thatwas a priority for me is just to
read that and feel that, feelthose 10 things on my list, and
(22:01):
just take that time to align andto balance.
And again, you are the best atknowing what works for you.
So are you ready now to alignwith your own dynamic well-being
