In a nutshell,
1)Faith
2)Family
3)Fitness
4)Finances
With the above in order of 1 being the MOST IMPORTANT and then 2 and 3 and least important 4.
Shouldn't we be giving the most time and resources to the two most important yet looked at myself and everybody else that I know and we all spend the most time and resources on number 4.
P.S I suppose you could add number 5) Fun.

Regarding 'Finances', many people struggle with the boundary between having enough to keep you 'Healthy' and at what point one becomes too materialistic. (JOY)

How are we all doing with priorities? Do our priorities still feel "right" to us? I think I need to focus on the "be serene" more

They can change quite significantly with time and December is a good time to reconsider them. Has anyone changed their priorities for 2012? (JOY)

My priorities are God, Family, Business. It is that simple. Thankfully the business helps enrich others lives and will provide a comfortable income.

Looking back in this thread about the priorities i had last listed. I found this almost exactly a year ago - 12/27/10 -
Stability, health/fitness, serenity, creativity, order, joy/fun
So here we go for 2012.
Stability - i have not moved and i have a full team of mental health professionals. I have a financial plan that 2012 will bring forth. So this is underway.
Health/Fitness - Mental health is being stabilized, which sis a tremendous gift. Now working on making sure i have my vitamins and minerals in, with fiber, antioxidants, plenty of water and a daily fitness activity.
Skipping down to Order - I have plenty of time in 2012 to get my physical things in order but need to focus on the stability first and foremost.
Creativity - In my group classes there has been some art therapy. doing some singing with friends. This is plenty for now.
Joy/Fun - I actually have friends now! It's a great, great thing! I can't be thankful enough and i tell them this all the time.
Serenity - i would like to focus more, be more mindful in 2012. Make time to meditate. And I have a lot of buddism based books i would like to make the time for reading (and reviewing). Right now I am making time to nap and sleep in, which is good in its own way.

...i would like to focus more, be more mindful in 2012...i would like to make the time for reading (and reviewing)... Hi Jilly, thank you for the update on your priorities. Regarding focussing and making time for 'important stuff', something that really works is the following. If one puts time aside for the 'important stuff' first thing in the morning, i.e., after breakfast but before anything else, it always gets done. (JOY)
