Rocks in a Jar – Focus on the important things in life. This jar resembles your life – what can you get into the jar what can you get into your life? This is my adaptation of the famous rocks in a jar attributed to a unknown university lecturer.  Now lets look at this jar and these golf balls – the golf balls represent what is really important to you? Your family  Your friends Your Health and well-being Your faith and beliefs Your life passions  Plan into your life the things that are really important to you first otherwise they will get left out as we put small things into our life.  The small jar or stones represent all the daily hustle and bustle that can just fill up our time, these are still important but not as important as the big stuff, housework, chores, our work, shopping, materialistic things.  Now the sand represents everything else that can steal our time Social media, interruptions from others, poor planning, sat in traffic, emails, pointless conversations or badly directed energy on something you can’t control.  As you can see the jar is now very full, but if you put things into your life the right way round you can fit more in, what would have happened if you had put the sand in first, then the small stones, there would have been no room for the golf balls that represent the really important things?  But remember when you do have a very full life you always need to find time to have a drink with people who are really important to you.
