A teacher gives his students a life-changing lesson with a crystal bowl, golf balls, stones, sand, and a beer.

The bowl represents your life. The golf balls represent the people, dreams, values, health, and passions that matter most. The stones represent other important responsibilities. The sand represents the small tasks, worries, and distractions that can easily fill your time.

The final beer represents the space we should reserve for friendship, relaxation, laughter, and enjoying life. The lesson is simple: if you allow the small things to take up all your space, you may not have room left for the things that matter most.

Do not let the sand become your whole life.

00:17Good afternoon, everyone.
00:18Good afternoon.
00:25We all have this one life to live.
00:28A fleeting shadow amongst all that exists in this vast universe, we have the ability
00:34to accomplish anything, truly anything, if we use our time wisely.
00:53Is this jar full?
00:54Yes.
01:04Yes.
01:05And is it full now?
01:06Yes.
01:19And how about now?
01:20Is the jar full now?
01:21Yes.
01:23Yes.
01:25Yes.
01:26Yes, it is.
01:41Now I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
01:47Golf balls are the important things, your family, your friends, your health, and your passions.
01:53And the pebbles are the other important things, your car, your job, your home.
01:58And the sand is everything else, it's just the small stuff.
02:02Now if you put the sand in the jar first, you won't have room for the pebbles or the golf
02:07balls.
02:08The same is true in life.
02:10If you spend all your energy and your time on the small stuff, you won't have time for
02:16all the really important things that matter to you.
02:19Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
02:23Take care of the golf balls first, the really important things.
02:28Set your priorities.
02:30Because everything else is, man, it's just sand, you know?
02:33Yes.
02:34Uh, Professor, what does, what does the beer represent?
02:38I'm glad you asked.
02:40It goes to show that no matter how full your life may seem to be, there's always room for
02:44a couple of beers with a friend.
03:11I'm glad you asked.
03:16Bye.
03:20Bye.
03:21Bye.
03:21Bye.
03:29Bye.
03:29Bye.
03:29Bye.
03:29Bye.
03:29Bye.
