How can I make pre-requisites feel integrated into "success"?

Let me try to define what I mean by "success":

Career Education (related to my career) Personal Finances Routine Diet Exercise Lifestyle Romantic Relationship Political Knowledge

These all feel integrated, so I'm actually motivated to do them. They feel like the fundamental components of success (being sufficient at them is what matters, not necessarily being an expert at every one) like how meditation, diet, exercise, and sleep are fundamental components of health.

Pre-requisites feel isolated from the others or tossed aside, hence why it feels un-integrated. The reason for this seems to be because my mind sees it as irrelevant to "success". It's like how school has useful fundamentals (e.g. grammar, spelling, math, nutrition, exercise, sex ed), and then you have the irrelevant non-fundamentals (e.g. physics, genetics, chemistry, astronomy) that are thrown in there and not integral to the average person's life. That's how it feels with pre-requisites.
