What must be equally examined are priorities and ones ability to accomplish some of the more challenging goals that are inevitably in front of us all. In my coaching practice I often see some goals as avoidance to happily skip out on what are often the more important ones.

Doing the fun things first is an easy way to never get to the tough ones yet I would put forth that the feeling of accomplishment is less and the person is still feeling unfulfilled and perhaps even overwhelmed.

The key is to tackle the really tough priorities first, obtain success and then the fun stuff is really fun. Plus the feeling of accomplishment is over the top and momentum for some unrecognizable.
