HOW TO PRIORITIZE YOUR LIFE
🏆 HOW TO PRIORITIZE YOUR LIFE
Hey, you.
Yeah, you — the one juggling studies, family, friends, hobbies, and stress.
Let me tell you something that might just change how you see time.
🏀 THE JAR LESSON: SIMPLE, YET POWERFUL
Imagine your life as a big empty jar.
Now, you have:
-
GOLF BALLS – Your health, education, dreams. The things that truly matter.
-
STONES – Your house, friends, classes. Important, but not everything.
-
SAND – Social media, video games, Netflix.
-
SODA – Random distractions, drama, time-wasters.
Now here’s the trick:
If you start filling your jar with soda and sand, you’ll have no room left for the golf balls.
But if you start with the golf balls, everything else will find its way around.
⚠️ WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU GET IT WRONG?
Let’s say you ignore the order and dump in the soda and sand first.
Guess what?
-
There’s no space for the gym (health).
-
You miss assignments (education).
-
Your goals get pushed aside.
-
You feel busy all the time, but not fulfilled.
You’ll be tired, anxious, and wondering,
“Where did all my time go?”
And it’s not because you didn’t have time — you just used it wrong.
✅ 3 TIPS TO MASTER YOUR JAR
🎯 1. START WITH WHAT MATTERS
Always begin your day (or week) with your most important tasks. Those are your golf balls.
🚫 2. CUT THE CLUTTER
Recognize what's just sand and soda. You don’t have to eliminate it — just don’t let it take over.
🔁 3. REVIEW YOUR JAR WEEKLY
Ask yourself:
“Did I focus on the right things this week?”
Even a 10-minute reflection can bring clarity.
💬 FINAL WORD
You don’t need a bigger jar.
You need better choices.
So next time you feel overwhelmed, remember:
Golf balls first.
Or risk running out of space for the life you actually want.
