If you have more than one goal, it is only possible to create a prioritized list of how these goals interact through enumerating and ranking the tasks required to achieve them.

The priority of the goal to which a task pertains establishes the default priority of the task. Additional factors will fine tune the priority, such as prerequisites, convenience, unexpected opportunities, and boosting tasks that pertain to more than one goal.

One help in prioritizing the tasks of a goal is to frame it as a problem by asking: “What is the greatest barrier to accomplishing this goal?” It is usually easier to see what impedes progress than what accelerates it. Whatever detracts most from your goal might be a good candidate for what to address first.
