One day a professor was giving a lecture on time management to MBA students. As he stood before the class and said. "Okay. Now time for a quiz." Then he took an empty bucket and put it on the table. Then he filled the bucket with a rock the size of a fist, he fills continues until there are no longer enough stones to put in the bucket, he asked the question, "Do you think it has a full bucket?"
Everyone in the class said, "Yes!"
Then he said. "Has so"? "Kemudian.dari in the table he took out a small bag of gravel, He poured gravel into a bucket and then shuffle-ngocok bucket so that gravel down into the gaps between the stones . Then, once again he asked the question, "Is this jar full?"
This time the class was silent. Someone replied, "Probably not."
"Very good." said the lecturer. Then he pulled out a bag of sand and poured it into the bucket. The sand was falling to fill the gaps left between the rocks and gravel. Once again, he asked the question, "Well, if this jar full?"
"Not Yet!" said the whole class.
Again he said, "Good. Very good." Then he grabbed a pitcher of water and began to pour it into the bucket up to the brim. Then he turned to the class and asked, 'Do you know what the purpose of this illustration? "
One eager beaver raised his hand and said, "The point is, no matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always fit."
"Oh, no," said the lecturer. "That's not the point. The fact of illustration teaches us is: if you do not enter a" big rock "in advance, then you'll never get them all."
What is the "big rocks" in your life? Your children; Your spouse; Your education; Things that are important in your life; Teach something to someone else; Doing work you love; Time for yourself; Your health; Your friend; or all worthwhile.
Remember to always include the "big rocks" the first time or you will lose everything. If you fill it with small things (such as gravel and sand) then your life will be full of little things that is troubling and should not be necessary. Because then you will never have real time you need for great things and important.
Therefore, every morning or evening, when you are reflecting on this short story, ask yourself: "Is the" big rocks "in my life?" Then do it first. "
