How rocks can change your life

If you don't know the story of the 3 rocks, let me tell you...

This story is about just how busy we think we are and what we can do about it. Because one of the most common complaints I'm hearing from business women is that they are just "too busy". They are tired of being tired.

The story of the 3 rocks is based on a science experiment.

Get a 3 cup jar and pour 1 1/2 cups of sand in it, then 1 cup of gravel then 3 nice size rocks, then 1/2 cup of water. Can't get it all in very well can you? Because the sand and gravel takes up all the room.

Instead, put the large rocks in first. Then put the gravel in. Then add the sand. Then add the water. It's amazing, but it all fits.

The moral is to figure out what the rocks are in your life. Those are the things most important to you.

Put them first, then add the "gravel" which is the secondary things, then add the sand and water which are the little things. You'll find that the little things take care of themselves and if they don't you haven't missed much. But if you leave out the big things, you will miss most of the things that are most important in your life.

Do it today. Write down your rocks, then your gravel, then the sand. See what happens when you put the right things first.
