Joe Apfelbaum uses a jar metaphor to explain time management: put your biggest tasks (rocks) in first, then smaller ones (pebbles), or sand fills the space. Identify your top three to five critical tasks and schedule them deliberately so they don't get crowded out by busywork.
Good morning. If you had a jar and you wanted to get sand, pebbles, and large rocks into the jar, which one would you put into the jar first? Obviously, if you put in the sand and the pebbles, there's not going to be any room for the big rocks. So it's important to you to put the big rocks in first, then the pebbles, and then the sand. Think of your time as a jar, and think of the pebbles, rocks, and sand as things that you need to do. The big important things are called rocks. The small things are pebbles, and then the nonsense that fills up your day is the sand. Make sure that in the beginning of your day, beginning of your week, beginning of your month, beginning of your quarter, beginning of your year, you identify what your rocks are, and put those rocks into your calendar, into your jar first. Because the sand and the pebbles are going to fill it up automatically. If you want to be successful, think about your top 3, your top 5 rocks. Put them into your calendar. And watch your success soar.
