I started to follow the "Craft the Life You Want" article (http://artofmanliness.com/2011/02/08/create-a-life-plan/) awhile ago by making a list of my roles as a man in order of importance.

I recently went back to this list to help me make a desicion and found myself asking, "Where am I on this list? At what point should I think about myself and what I want to do?

Where would place yourselves on this list?

I don't see it as a mere list, it's a dynamic entity. More like juggling. We have to be all these things simultaneously, and everything is linked.
Maybe then it's more like a busy chef in a kitchen cooking up a several-course meal, the courses are different life stages. They all have some basic ingredients, and unique to the course too. Everything has to be assembled with timing and technique, the plan being the recipes.
Corny, but that's how I see it.
