What we spend our time on is probably the most important decision we make.

Priorities are the yearly goals that I'm most interested in achieving, then they become operationalized through weekly goals.

Two decades of experience as an entrepreneur and CEO has informed my view that our priorities must stress improving educational outcomes, rebuilding America's infrastructure, lowering health care costs, addressing climate change, reforming immigration, and ushering in an advanced energy economy.

My highest priority is to make sure we get Americans back to work. And that we have rising incomes again and that we have a deficit reduction program in place that convinces the world that we're on track to having a balanced budget.

Our first priority is our kids.

I know where my priorities lie.

My priorities are to make sure we get the prescription drug bill, that we fund the research in NIH adequately, and that we fund the Center for Disease Control adequately.

Really, most of us just focus on what's in front of us. We're too busy putting out the fires of everyday life.

In all planing you make a list and you set priorities.
