When the class began, without
saying a word, he
pick up a jar of mayonnaise
a large empty and began to fill
with golf balls.
Then he said to the
students, if the jar was
full? Students agreed.
Then the professor took a box
pebbles and poured into
the jar. He shook with
mild. Coral rocks in,
fill the empty places in between
golf balls.
Then he asked the
students, Is the jar was
full? They agreed that the jar
it is full.
Furthermore professor took
a box of sand and poured into
in a jar ...
Of course, the sand that cover all
things. Professor once again
asked if the jar was full?
The students unanimously
said, "Yeah!"
Professor and brewing two
cup of coffee from under the table and
pour the contents into the jar,
and effectively fills the room
space between the sand.
The students laughed ...
"Now," said the professor as
laughter subsided, "I want
you understand that this jar
represents your life. "
"The golf balls are the things that
important - God, family, children,
health, friends and the
friend. If anything is missing
and only their lives, then
your life is still full. "
"Coral stones are all things
others, like your job, house

"When you first enter the
sand into the jar, "continued

One student raised his hand
and asked, "If the coffee which
