He also produced about a dozen fist-sized rocks and carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar. When no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, "Is this jar full?"
Everyone in the class yelled, "Yes." The expert reached under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel. He dumped some gravel in and shook the jar, causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the spaces between the big rocks. He then asked again, "Is this jar full?"
"Probably not." one of them answered. "Good." He replied. He reached under the table and brought out a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all of the spaces left between the rocks and the gravel. Once more he asked the question, "Is this jar full？”
“No!" the class shouted. "Good." He replied. He grabbed a pitcher of water and began to pour it in until the jar was filled to the brim. Then he looked at the class and asked, "What is the point of this illustration?" One eager student raised his hand and said,“No matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always fit some more things in it!"

Time with your loved ones, your education, your dreams, a worthy cause, or teaching others? Remember to put these big rocks in first or you'll never get them in at all."
