Once, a professor entered the classroom with a glass jar, rocks, pebbles, and sand. The students were amused to see what he was up to. First, he started filling the rock parts into the jar until he couldn’t add any more.
He asked the students if the jar was full, and everybody nodded yes. He then started putting the pebbles inside the jar, which went through the small gaps. He shook the jar to allow the pebbles to get into those vacant spaces between the rocks.
He asked the students the same question, and they again said that the jar was full. Finally, he poured the sand into the jar, which went through the minute gaps and filled the jar.
The professor explained that this is how you should set priorities in life: Rock is like your family, pebbles are like your career, and sand is like the least priorities in life, unnecessary quarrels, and egos. If you put sand in the jar first, it will easily fill up, leaving no space for rocks and pebbles.
Moral: You should identify your priorities in life and develop a good strategy to work towards fulfilling them rather than wasting your time and effort on unnecessary aspects of life.
