The Jar of Life

23 August 2021

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐬, 𝐏𝐞𝐛𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐝 ?

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 inside through the small gaps

and he shakes the jar to allow the pebbles to get into those vacant spaces in between the rocks.

He asked the same question to the students and they again said that the jar was full.

Finally, he poured the sand inside the jar which went through the minute gaps and got filled in the jar.

The professor explained that this is how you should set priorities in life.

Rock is like your family, while pebbles are like your career while sand is like

the least priorities in life and unnecessary quarrels and egos.

If you put sand on the jar first, it will get easily filled up leaving no space for rocks and pebbles.
